We’re gonna have a top 5 defense if the o line is as good as we think it should be

This scheme while not producing a lot of turnovers is just a smart D to run against these modern offenses. Our offense wasnt trash last year but it also wasn’t balanced which makes it a step under elite. If we can somehow balance the offense and add point to our per game average that same exact defensive scheme becomes godly when you are protecting leads instead of coming from behind or trying to keep pace.

I expect the defense to do way better because i expect the offense to be better. I think Iv officially settled around 14 wins and i don’t see why that’s unrealistic if our offense takes a step. No team really has the personnel to stop us AND light us up. The Chiefs, Ravens, Eagles, and maybe these new Jets should be the only teams that can match up with us well.

If the Oline can give Burrow an extra second to make his reads, yeah it’s a new offense. Play action and the deep ball become more deadly than last year and maybe the running game is too. Both Mixon and Brown can catch so with that extra time they can open up the short field more than last year. The defense is depending upon the second year guys to improve the pass rush.
