What does your offense need to improve on from last year?
It will be difficult to improve on 45 points per game. We will need to be more physical.

What does your defense need to improve on from last year
With the exception of two great DEs, we were very young up the middle last year. We expect that last year’s experience and another year of physical maturity will help make our defense a real strength this season.
