I always said great coaches can take existing players and make the team better. He does have Slayton, Stewart, Knight and a fe others plus a whole bunch of injured starters returning. They should have better team speed, the question is will they play fast. Murphy is an elite athlete, but for me plays slower than hs athleticism for example.

I think our defense is better in 2025 and like what I hear from Burrow and others talking about the defense in camp.

Coach Golden may very well be the reason that the team worked to re-sign Joseph Ossai. During his time with the Bengals, Ossai has primarily been used as a DE, but he made his name at Univ Texas playing the Jack LB position. The defense that Texas was running at that time was somewhat similar to what Golden ran at ND. I could foresee some "different" defensive personnel and alignment packages coming this season for the defense, including some 4 LB sets.
