As figured, no changes coming

2. We were missing our best player on offense and a (supposed) stud LT.
3. A *SHIT-TON* of issues from this year, fall on coaching and NOT the perceived, "lack of talent." Ryan Finley getting starts is absolutely not because of poor talent, but poor decision-making.

I'm not saying we don't need to address anything (sure as hell not), but the team is solid at a bunch of position groups and last year's draft was an attempt (outside of Sample) to solidify the groups that needed the most help; we got the best olineman in the draft, a good, rookie (YOUNGEST PLAYER IN THE LEAGUE, who is already a giant and improved throughout the year) G, a young LB that was night and day from week 1 to week 17 and in this year's draft, if they continue to hit LB and oline with good, solid picks, those holes will continue to be filled up.

Things are not black and white and there are reasons for shortcomings and downfalls.

EDIT* Andy plays the three benched games, we win 2.
AJ plays, we win probably another 2 games or so.

6-7 wins isn't successful or ideal, but we are much closer to that, "on the cusp," record than 2-14.

I felt we would have one all 3 were he at the helm.  Each one seemed to be within our grasp and faultered due to a lack of experience.
