I think we're in BETTER shape than we were at the end of the 2018 season.

I really do. I think the bus is in the shop for some new tires and a paintjob touch-up and I'll be rolling it back out in September. Feel free to hop on board!

In that offseason, we had to scrap a terrible defense, including dismantling "sack nation" which somehow led the league in sacks but couldn't stop anyone. We had to get a new coordinator, new coaches, find someone to take Dee Ford, and Houston, and cut Berry, and get basically a whole new defense in place.

After we cut Clark and Hitchens, pay one of the younger FA stud safeties coming on the market instead of an aging Mathieu, extend Hill, etc.-we should be in decent shape to grab a couple of consistent, dependable vets to pair with some draftees and youngsters on the D-line.

We need some explosiveness at RB and WR2, could use some competition at RT.

Otherwise the offense is pretty well set.

We're in good shape.

In 2018, there were so many unknown unknowns. This team knows a lot more now than it did then.

We're going to be fine. We'll be right back in the hunt in 2022!
