Prisco is not sold on us at all

To me that says that despite Pags being a terrible coach, despite playing with a guy thrown to the wolves at QB, despite a completely ridiculous O-line shuffle, despite an absurdly pathetic pass rush and a non-existent LB corps, this team actually did show some fight last year.

We have Luck back, we unquestionably have a better Oline, and presumably we have a game breaker at RB this year that we have not had. Put a real coach on top of that; not saying playoffs but also not saying dumpster fire either. I think we are probably looking at a 50/50 year, maybe 9-7 and if Luck is flirting with who he was pre-injury late in the year I could see a push to 10-6.

We have a game breaker at RB? I think RB is a complete unknown at this point. There is some talent there, but we don't know how that will pan out at the NFL level.

We also lost some good d-linemen. Hopefully we don't regress there.

I hope we are all surprised at how good this team ends up being, but it's just a ton of unknowns at this point.
