Sonny Joe Hog Posted August 26, 2005 Share Posted August 26, 2005 Over many years of observation, I've developed a theory of what type of personnel it takes to win in the NFL. Basically, two things are most important: 1. A powerful, well-coordinated offensive line. I believe we have that this year. The QB's will have more time to throw and the backs will have room to run this year. 2. One star player each on the D-Line, at LB, and in the secondary - just one in each unit because you can fill in with good players and be a strong defense. But we have much more than that. We have two star LB's and two (possibly three by mid-season) stars in the secondary. So we're loaded on D. Right there, we may have enough to win. But we're not done yet. We also have one of the better RB's in the league and one of the better TE's (actually H-Back) in the league. If these players are used properly - and I believe they will be - we should win. I don't know why we're so underrated by the media but I'm glad we are because winning will be so much sweeter as the underdog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSteve Posted August 26, 2005 Share Posted August 26, 2005 If we had a bad coach, I could see being pessimistic. But as our head coach is Gibbs I'm expecting improvement over last year. Good coaches don't decline unless it's due to circumstances beyond their control like injuries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terpfan Posted August 26, 2005 Share Posted August 26, 2005 Amen, theres just one more ingredient for a winning team. A decent, just decent, quarterback. I'm still pretty confident that Ramsey can be that guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
