Pash rush. Where is that gonna come from? Sure, Young COULD work out, but Jordan is older. We are hoping guys that have not really stepped up before step up now. Same was at LB. Strength of D will be backfield.

I'm not concerned with Jordan. He played almost the entire season on a bum ankle. From my understanding that is now behind him. I expect a big bounce back year. As for losing Hurst, no biggie at all. He was "just a guy" all along.

But, no, I do not understand the negativity. I accept that it's going to exist because it seems it's just the way some people look at things. I never could see things that way. Just think, if players had that attitude they would be destined to lose. I was a pretty good golfer in my younger days and one thing I never thought about when addressing the ball was what could go wrong. I always visualized a successful shot. I would suspect the players have that same mindset, thank God.
