When you have that many starter quality players as backups you are in great shape. I don't see anywhere where I would have concerns.

And you rotate those guys to wear out the other kids (kinda like LSU and Bama does at the collegiate level)...

You also have fewer injuries complicated by fatigue...

Not to mention those young players will continue to grow as the season progresses.

I would toss out Anzalone's broken arm last year as a factor. Then it would go back several years to when he had the shoulder issues. My money would be on Alex.
