Is 3-12-1 that much better than 2-13-1?

However to the first point;  Although this team needs a few great players, building from the fundamental positions on either side of the line of scrimmage is where we most sorely need a "star", more than anywhere else.  We have a star QB, RB, future star WR.  On defense we have a star S and a star NT (who only got to play 5 games before injury).  The OL needs a bonafide star player.  When healthy, Jonah looked "adequate" to do the job, but in no way NFL "star" quality.

Agree

This team has to get A LOT better in the trenches first and foremost. And if I had to bet, my money would be on Zac coming back no matter the final win/loss record.

And finally us beating the Steelers did nothing for my trust in ZT and Co. being the answer to our Super Bowl prayers.
