This is where it hinges no doubt. I am kind of in the middle at this point. I believe that Og and especially Fisher will
improve immensely from last year even with our mediocre to terrible O-line coach. Bodine needs replaced though and
if we draft a Center somewhat early i will have much more optimism.
Lots of ifs, if Andre can stay healthy i think he could be a great RG as long as we don't use him to pull. The running
game could easily be upgraded which will take some heat off of Dalton.
Our Defense is where i am excited. We could be great on this side of the ball this year. Letting Peko and Maualuga go
and having Billings and Minter start is a major upgrade IMHO. We will see, but i could see us being a damn tough team
in the regular season just cause of our Defense, but if the O-line plays well, we could be a force.
I will never speak of a Playoff win while Marv is the Head Coach though, 0-7 speaks volumes.
