What if Mims, Jenkins, Turner regress. What if CTB sucks again. What if Ossai can’t get consistent pressure and Murphy gets 2 sacks all year. What if Hill is injured again. What if OBJ gets injured.


The starting roster to this point is 95.45% the same players as last year. One new starter in Slayton.

Props go out for singing Chase and Tee. I think that needed to be done. But that can’t be it. And it appears that was the plan all along. Hang our hat on the moral victory of singing our two receivers.


It’s okay to be critical. I know we’re all passionate fans. Why else would we be here posting to a message board lol. I’ll cheer as loud as any fan. Probably cry if they win a superbowl. But I’ll be vocal in my opinions of this team not being good enough. This was the biggest offseason of the JB era and so far we have the exact same team. Yeah things could be worse. We could hypothetically lost Chase next year and tee next year. So I’m glad we got them signed. But this isn’t enough to go in to the playoffs and win 3-4 games, in a row, against the league’s best teams.

Agreed. Somehow since extending Chase and Tee, some of the board is now seeing our defense as much improved.

Slaton is an improvement over the guys off the street we signed. He's not DJ Reader though either. He was ranked pretty bad by PFF.

We need a Guard and that will rely on Volson starting. A starting DE. And a Safety at minimum. Then, something at CB.
