For me the keys will be...

1. Injuries, if we can upgrade our strength and conditioning coaches then the little injuries are more avoidable, if not then we will be in the same situation as earlier seasons.

2. Depth, while our WR's, RB, FB, TE's are all well and we have talented depth behind the starters, my concern is the DB's, and the OL. While guys like Heyer, and Fabini stepped in and played well above expectations, if a starter goes down then we may be on the shorter end of the Win Loss Column.

3. And finally, when the Offense will "Click". Now JC having played a similar system in college and the knowledge of Zorn, I believe once he works on the smaller aspects he'll be fine, my concern is the timing and route running of the WR's. We all know what they can do after the catch, but the real question will be how well they get open.

Overall, I will be patient with the offense, cause I truely believe that once it gets going it will be a very successful system. And we definately have the talent to do some damage. The Defense barring serious injury should be able to pick up where they left off last season, and hopefully bring in some vets to provide depth and knowledge.
