Don't get me wrong because a defense is important and I wish we had addressed it more, but I'm just saying that we can still win.

Bell and Stone could be big additions in our secondary and let's just hope that we can get after the passer.
I'm actually comfortable with Moss and I'm high on Brown, so I don't mind not taking a back, especially since the line is our biggest need.
I know that this is the AFC North, which is typically a running/physical division, but we can the ball the third-fewest times of any team in the NFL, and I like what Moss and Brown offer our offense.

Exactly. All the potential has me excited, and I know potential is just a word that hasn't always worked out for us, but we have enough of a solid base that I think they'll fit on our roster and can find ways to contribute in big ways.

Sorry my system does not seem to allow me to piece quotes, but the reason we went to the SB was the major role our defense played in the playoffs.... Burrow is a major piece of the puzzle but with other pieces ie defense we don;t look good making it to SB
