I’ve followed these boards for a long time but hardly ever post. However, at this time I just feel a push to give my opinion on a controversial subject – who plays on the D, and can it develop into a championship unit. I feel that we potentially have a very strong defense. If all goes well (a major hope on my part) I believe that we could have a defense, coupled with a strong offense, to carry us a long way in the playoffs.
This is what I’d like to see within, more or less, the following 3 or 4 weeks.
