Again, don't count on Orakpo to improve the pass rush/turnovers. IF he does, he's exceeding expectations for a rookie.

I think most everyone here is assuming the D will return to form, but last year's D was not an imposing unit, they just played disciplined & hard under Blache. In the latter half of the year they looked worn down at times too, not just from being on the field too long either. LB is still an issue & we don't know how that will turn out. Can A. Carter get some sacks again?
