I for the most part agree with your premise. I am can see a lot of improvement in our team already compared to last year, especially the defense. IMO if we can simply stop beating ourselves with dumb penalties and go back to taking advantage of what our offensive players do best, we can be competitive in every game. That being said, we are probably not going to compete for a playoff spot again this year. There are still to many weak spots in our game (mostly offensive gameplan/playcalling) for that, maybe next year. Anyhow, welcome to the forum, you might want to be a little bit more specific with your thread titles and whatever you do, do not make a mistake and hit "Post" more than once. Some of the posters here will club you to death for that (virtually).
