Gotta say I'm more pessimistic than the consensus, though what I've seen and heard this summer make me a bit less pessimistic than I had been in the spring.  Still, we are gloriously thin at OL and our starters are anything but iron horses.  Maybe we'll be lucky, but odds are against it.  And it is hard to see a better defense than last year's, given the holes in the center of the field.  This really does seem like a seven win team to me.  Yes, some upside potential given some young talent at positions of need, but also a fair bit of downside potential.  Like, there is a very real possibility that with injuries at a couple key positions, the wheels fall off this team and we have a losing season for the first time in a while.

We could easily start 0-4.
