I still feel like we might have too much of a good thing at the skill positions, and that might be letting us get lazy at play design and perfecting the simple things. It's nice to have receivers to make contested catches on 50/50 balls and a QB who can pick up a 1st on 3rd and 16, but it came to that way too often.
Starting with the NE game, this team was getting sloppy on offense in the 2nd half of games. If there is any room for improvement, it is in that area. We are going to have to execute the little things better and become more fundamentally sound.
On defense we have older heads running that side of the ball, and they have been the unit that has kept us in games on that 10-win streak. I would not be opposed if someone was brought in to ground the offensive side of the ball in the same way.
