Dalton thinks offense will take "Big Jump" this season

We might be better on both sides of the ball.

Exactly.  Get a lead, and get after their asses.  Colts made a living doing this when they had Manning, Harrison, and Reggie Wayne.  They would get up, and unleash the pass rush of Freeney and Mathis.  

I said the missing ingredient on offense was a vertical threat opposite AJ.  Check.

I said the defense needed a speed option (that wasn't a one trick pony and could counter inside and was tough as nails).  Check (Willis) and Check (Lawson).  

Combine that with some of the later round freaks and special teams should also be improved.  Check.

Synergy.  It all works together to improve the team.
