| | | PORTLAND: Professional football is returning to Portland in 2014! The newly-minted Portland Thunder will be among the youngest teams in the League, but could be one of the most talented as well. With offensive guru Matthew Sauk at the helm for the Thunder, fans should expect plenty of scoring. Each of the last three AFL MVP winners have been coached by Sauk and Portland fans are hoping former Oregon Ducks quarterback Darron Thomas becomes No. 4. Thomas is a strong-armed dual-threat quarterback who was a very successful college quarterback in Eugene, while his camp competition, Nathan Enderle, was a four-year starter at Idaho and threw for over 10,000 yards during his career. Whoever coach Sauk pegs as his starting quarterback will have talent to throw to on the outside. Just before training camp started, the Thunder made a move with Philadelphia that sent versatile receiver Andrae Thurman to Portland. Last season with the Soul, four-year veteran set career highs in receptions and receiving yards. The team also recently acquired former San Jose Sabercats leading receiver Samora Goodson. Former Spokane Shock wideouts Duane Brooks and Jeffrey Soloman should also play a role in 2014. On the opposite side of the ball, the Thunder will have talent, albeit young, at every level. Starting with the secondary, Portland has three veterans they will rely on. One of those veterans is Eric Crocker, who spent all of last season in the NFL with the New York Jets. The Thunder selected Crocker with the first overall pick in December's Expansion Draft. Portland also picked up Patrick Stoudamire from Spokane and Dwight McLean from New Orleans. Up front, the coaches will have high expectations for talented rookie defensive lineman Donte Paige-Moss, who was a force at the University of North Carolina. Former Arizona Rattlers end Antron Dillon will also be relied on to become a playmaker. With Seattle just less than three hours north of Portland, the Thunder will look to solidify the Pacific Northwest as the new hotbed of pro football. | | TAMPA BAY: Arena Football Hall of Fame selection Lawrence Samuels will be making his head coaching debut this upcoming season with the team that made him one of the all-time greats. Samuels was part of three ArenaBowl championship teams and was named MVP and Ironman of ArenaBowl XVII with the Storm. He will look to return the team to glory days this season, but his task won't be easy. His first task as head coach will be replacing quarterback Adrian McPherson. McPherson accounted for more than 3,500 yards and 90 combined touchdowns last year, as he set numerous quarterback rushing records. The team brought in rookie quarterback Stephen Garcia to compete with last year's backup, Randy Hippeard, for the starting job. Whoever wins the training camp battle will have some help on the outside with Joe Hills, who is coming off a year in which he set career highs in all major receiving statistical categories. On defense, defensive back Chris Smith is looking to put together an encore to his stellar rookie campaign, in which he led the team in tackles and interceptions. The Storm had a difficult time getting to the quarterback last season, so the team has added veteran lineman Richard Clebert and a slew of rookie space-eaters and pass rushers to help the cause. |
