We can hypothesize all day about every possible scenario but we have a what.... 50% probability of being close to accurate? At best 60%?

Even a 20% unknown factor can be very disruptive to an offense.

This is the truth.

Those that are concerned that the defense isn't going to improve or improve enough to help our playoff chances have very good reasons to be.

on the other hand...

Those that are optimistic about the new faces and new schemes on the defensive side of the ball, also have good reasons to be.

They haven't played a single down in a meaningful game yet. Nobody here is right or wrong. It's all just opinion and conjecture at this point. And that's what this board is for, discussing opinions.
