I am having trouble.....here's a list of reasons why it is difficult.
1)Our front office is, at the very least, of questionable ability.
Free agency and the draft will be the most immediate litmus test, but we'll
need at least 2 years to make a judgement.
We don't have much breathing room under the cap to make moves. If we
want to change the complexion of this team quickly, we need F/A's.
2) A new head coach who hasn't had a record of success has to make
most fans uneasy.
3) Quarterback---a huge questionmark at this point. I am trying to think of
another team with a worse situation than ours.....and I can't.
Yes, there are other teams with bad situations, and maybe Detroit is the
closest, but most other teams didn't select a QB in the first round within the
last two years.
4) Runningback---Does anyone else question Willis' heart? Apart from that,
I am not sold on our depth. Gates might change my mind
in training camp, but until Shaud Williams slides to the bottom
of the depth chart, I remain disenchanted.
5) Receivers--If Moulds is gone, Evans is our only proven, go-to guy.
While I like Parrish and Aiken, the rest of our wideouts could
fall off the face of the NFL earth and noone would notice.
6) Tight Ends--health is the main concern for me....why can't we catch a break?
Everett hasn't proven himself one way or another yet.
7) OLINE--to put it bluntly, it wouldn't hurt my feelings if we cut EVERY Olineman
on our roster and start from scratch.
8) DLINE--see above
9) Linebackers---Spike's injury can change a player forever, we won't know if he
will be the same player for several more months. Fletcher could
gone, Posey is too average, and the young guys are solid but not
even close to being above average.
10) Secondary--underachieving seems to be part of their gameplan. There is
more skill and potential here than other parts of the team, but
until someone lights a fire under them, they will continue to
underachieve.
**
Ok, so I do feel good about our kickers. But our return game has cooled off, and
we don't know if that will get back to prior form.
--And then I find out that ticket prices are going up....that's the icing on the cake.
All in all, it doesn't seem like a very bright picture.
And I am trying to look at the bright side.
Can anyone help?
