Offensive strengths/areas for improvement:
Strengths:Our Offensive line will have experience, Areas for improvement: Generally? we would like to move the ball. Something we did not do last year.
Defensive strengths/areas for improvement:
Strengths: None, we are a total question mark this year on defense, it will be interesting to me to see how well we mix it up. Physically we left a lot to be desired last year, our kids played hard but we missed the real hard nosed players on defense. I am really curious, who will step it up.
Special team Strengths:
We need a kicker, 3 years of John Novak we will have kicker withdrawls
Offensive Outlook:
We will be more talented at the skill positions. Our line will be more experienced, will move guys off the ball? It's all about June, July and August.
Defensive Outlook:
I think we will be faster, better tacklers, but will we have some physicality. We will see.
Coach's Team Summary:
We will be better, how much depends on how hard we work. We need to get faster and stonger.
