The new pass rushers, the added talent in the secondary, and (often overlooked) what I believe will be a HUGE upgrade for the defense is the offense's ability to sustain drives. The added talent on the line and the multitude of options that opens for Callahan and ZT will keep the ball out of the hands of opposing offenses.
I get so pumped thinking about getting a two or three score lead and having the pass rushers teeing off on opposing QBs. I sure hope we get to see it week 1.
Even when Flowers was getting beat it was great coverage. That is all you can ask for going against the great TE's and QB's of
today. Flowers should really help out Tycen Anderson who is the same body type. Like you say with an improved OL we should
be able to sustain drives for once and score once we are in the RZ. This will keep the D fresh and hungry.
We CAN stop the run, we shown that. Hendrickson CAN get after the passer big time, need others to step up besides him.
As you know Ossai is my pick to be this guy. We will see.
