Problems we cannot fix in time
 
You don't rebuild an offensive line in one offseason and that is what we need. A major overhaul. This is going to be hard because while our D is improved, it is still not what you would call a good D, average at best but opportunistic. We are gonna need some help there as well. We simply dont have the money and time. By the time we get our Oline straightened out Drew will be done. Hell working behind this years line has probably shaved a year off his career already.
He needs to come off of some of that money and buy himself some protection or he wont be around long enough to collect all that contract money.
Our best shot for a second SB was 11 and we blew it. Window still has a crack, but not much.

Some of you are.;) Some of you simply over-react to every loss like a spoiled brat 13 year old girl.

I don't think we're completely dead, but we do need to rebuild the O-Line.

I agree. Next season we should look to shore up the Oline and I hope we do it with cheap rookies lol. Every time we sign a lineman from another team they always seem to be overvalued for what you get.

We just need to play better. We played badly today, it happens to every team now and then.

I think Oline hasn't been great all season though. Today was really bad but we have been giving up a lot of sacks this season.

I agree, they've regressed since last year. But we have seen this same group play well so I'm not convinced we can't fix it, especially if Evans gets healthy. He's the key.

I've been saying this about the O-Line since last year. It's why we can't run and forces Drew into many of his interceptions because he has to hurry so many of his throws.
