Yet in 2011 thought it was addition by subtraction, thought Chad and TO were selfish and Carson just flat out hated living in Ohio. Plus jumped for joy when Brat was released and Gruden was added. Then Dalton and AJ came on board and I was stoked. Was sure AJ was the real deal and believed Grudens brother Jon made the Dalton pick for us indirectly. So felt he would work out.
That team lost some great statistical leaders, yet felt they never bought in. This team lost many good coaches the last few years and solid players to boot who I felt all bought in.
But if O-line can improve somehow and a pass rusher is drafted that could change this year for sure. Hope to feel better after draft. Going to attend draft party for the first time ever this year as well to try and raise spirits.
Even if not do believe it will much better the following year if a mass exodus does not start.
Glad to hear your optimism without scolding others while giving it.
Hope you are right and I and many others are wrong. Thanks needed a rational optimist.
This year pretty much hinges on Ogbuehi and he is putting in the work according to Jay Glazer.
We have weapons on the Offensive side and we will probably draft another one or two in a TE and a RB.
Bodine is in his last year, we should draft a Center for the future.
The Defense adding an End opposite Dunlap should be very hard to pass the ball on in this pass happy league.
Adding Minter, cutting Maualuga, letting Peko go and having Billings start next to Atkins is extremely exciting to me particularly.
