Peko, MJ, Dansby, Maualuga, and Jones are all guys getting up there in age and declining.
It's a lot of starters to replace in 1 year.
This is what happens when draft picks like Hunt, Clarke, Thompson, Still, Hardison, Dawson, Dennard, etc. haven't panned out (yet at least).
Zac Taylor 2019-2020: 6 total wins
Zac Taylor 2021-2022: Double-digit wins each season, plus 5 postseason wins
Zac Taylor 2023: 9 wins despite losing Burrow half the season
Zac Taylor 2024: Started 1-4. Ended 9-8 but barely missed playoffs
Changes needed to do better in Sept/Oct moving forward.
