For the special team, I would say this is about the best we can do. 2 TD and controling the field position all day? I don't expect to see this good again this season.
For the defense, I expect to see this level of play all year. McCargo being inactive, #11 pick not even in nickel package. Digi only on special team speak of depth we have. Unlike others, I thought it is a positive sign that we don't see a single draft pick played significant role on defense. We haven't been able to afford this luxury for awhile now. Let these new guys learn a bit instead getting burned and costing the team in the process.
For the offense, I expect some improvement. Yes Peters is coming back, though I don't expect to see the run blocking to get much better even with him. The key is Edwards. As evident yesterday, when he goes, so goes the offense. And it's good bet he'll get better as the season goes on. Hardy is a wildcard. My hope is low but if he picks up this offense a little, with the way Lee is playing (in his contract year and all), we can really shoot up the chart.
