I think we're maybe OK to keep using it until the performance drops off so much that it's an insult to apply the name?

The same will be true of the Legion of Boom.

Wish Browner had lasted longer, but some of his highlights are awe-inspiring as in I've never seen another player do something like that. Blocking three people by himself on special teams during a punt return and single-handledly shutting down the read option against Cam Newton and Jonathan Stewart, both over 230 lbs., was a mind boggling show of his physicality I will never forget.

That said, I do like Shaq's play as a rookie, I have been impressed with Coleman, McDougald, & Thorpe. J. Lane just doesn't strike me as an outside guy and neither does Shed w/o Sherm and Kam. I'd like to see another outside guy. Who do you think gets the start once Griffin comes back: Maxi or J. Lane?
