Its ok to get excited now. Its also ok to BELIEVE ! Are you kidding me?
We've had way less than this to root for, and we were ready to dance in the streets.

YES! BELIEVE ! ROOT ! RAISE HELL!

- the serious answer is we look good. I believe a W is a pretty good indicator of if you're any good or not. We're improved in so many areas, and guys like Bobby, Deke, and all sorts of local gurus are saying good things... Really, so long as we can keep an O-Line in place, I think its going to surprise you how good we're going to be this year.

BELIEVE

What gets me is our perceived depth on the defense. In years past during the preseason it always seemed like the starters would do okay, but then the 2nds, 3rds, and 4ths always **** the bed.

For once in a long time the defense has been damn good the whole game...

Haven't seen nearly the amount of missed tackles or blown coverages I'm used to

Yea I'm more hopeful than I have been in years. They look hungry and look like they are really feeding off what they accomplished so far defensively.
That carries into the season.
