I'm still not all in, but feel the floor is much higher this season....hence my 9-7 prediction. That said, for this organization, there were wholesale changes in the way they typically do business.
1) Tenured coaches shown the door.....some LONG tenured.
2) High draft pick investment in a Center.
3) A trade for an above average player at LT.
4) Signed a very good LB in Preston Brown in his prime, instead of an over the hill type.
5) Signed a serviceable DT for rotation.
6) Brought in some recognized names to replace removed coaches, instead of lazy, in house promotions, or some nobody as they have at times in the past.
Yes sir Wyche, i remember you being down on them all year. I always try to be positive but it just wasn't easy last
season. All i could do was hope that Og and Bodine improved under PA which was highly unlikely. This year we have
a solid foundation laid somewhat and out of Fisher, Hart, Taylor, Perkins, Westerman, Redmond, Hopkins we should
have a decent right side of the Line under Pollack.
The Center and left side already looks really solid and it all starts in the trenches. We have the skill players.
