I really do have both voices in my head. There's the part of me that says, other than Trey Hendrickson there are no All Pro candidates on the defense this year (unless someone really blows up) and the offense hinges on Burrow and we're just not sure how he'll look in a 17 game (hopefully 20 or 21 game) season. Will he go the distance? Will the wrist be the same and 100%? Does he still have the magic?
On the other hand, part of me says, we were a solid Oline away from winning a Super Bowl. We now have an Oline that could very well be solid. We have the same DC that figured out how to stop Patrick Mahomes (albeit with DJ Reader and Jessie Bates help) and Mahomes arguably has less weapons now.
Anyways, you play the games because you don't know how it will turn out. The season is long and if I were a coach I might be given to saying things like "Keep fighting till the last man and the last down." Because that is what it will take.
