I'm thinking the DL's REALLY need to step up and make plays and apply pressure.
We saw glimpses of Sagapolu potentially being a difference maker at the end of last season and Patterson behind him should finally be ready, if the two of them can collapse the pocket and wreck some havoc on teams OL's, it can make ALL the difference this season.
I have NEVER been a big Chikwe supporter, he's short for a 3/4 DE and though thick enough and reasonably stout, he's never been much of a pressurer of the QB and he gets a lot of reps, some that I think belong to Alec JAMes who is the better athlete IMO and the most underutilized guy on the team.
SHeehy is another stout guy who doesn't bring much pass rush or pentration to the mix and WIlcox has said he expects mroe play making from the front 3 this season.
Can Hirschfeld step up?
Zander Nueville was supposed to be a pass rusher?
Don't see Rand playing but who knows?
