Alright, now that most of us have backed away from the ledge, what positives are there to build on to get this thing on track and rolling for this year and certainly next year.
QB – I believe we have 2 good ones. Rising’s bigger arm, athleticism/mobility and creativity may be worth serious consideration given possible oline deficiencies. Jaquinden Jackson could have a Taysom Hill like play package not limited to just wildcat. Use your playmakers.
RB – We now have a clear RB1 that does everything well and on top of that I believe is a playmaker. Shameless self promotion, I’ve thought and posted Bernard as the front runner for a couple seasons and off-seasons. The only thing I didn’t see coming was Ty Jordan.
WR/TE/Throw game – we’ve got 3-4 playmakers here. Kuithe, Kincaid, Covey, maybe JD. Enis is a reliable move the chains guy. Tighten the rotation and get the playmakers the ball.
Oline – suggestions here? Getting guys healthy and time together can only help. Are there different guys that should be in the mix? Play calling needs to compensate as well.
Defense – we’re solid to good still against the run. I know we like to get pressure primarily with the front 4. Do we have a true edge rusher (Wegis?) on the team? We have the LB, DB and safeties to succesfully blitz. With a pass rush, defense could be really good.
What bright spots and opportunities are you seeing?
