What exactly is better about this years team than the last 2'years 8 win teams?
Serious question. Because from where I sit, there is NOTHING better about this years team and quite a bit that is worse. |

Other than that, nothing. I think it has POTENTIAL for the secondary to be better with Hooker and Wilson, Farley and Davis once they are all healthy and adjusted to the NFL game and the D, but that isn't likely to be mid season at the earliest. The O-line is worse with Ryan injured QB is much worse until Luck is back I see no improvement in the LBers, just new faces, same story The special teams is worse without McAfee The WRs don't matter much until Luck is back The DL as well, no better than last year. |

2) If Mewhort can play, the OL should be improved over the 2015 squad. 3) Marlon Mack brings a big play potential to RB. 4) Al Woods is a far better NT than David Parry. 5) Ditto Jonathan Hankins at DT. 6) John Simon looks like a legit pass rusher at OLB. 7) Hooker brings the kind of big play potential to the position that we haven't seen since Bob Sanders was suiting up. 8) Quincy Wilson is certainly better than, either Greg Toler or Jalil Brown. 9) 2015's OL depth chart listed Gosder Cherilus, Hugh Thornton and Khaled Holmes as starters. 10) The DL was Zach Kerr, Josh Chapman, and Arthur Jones. |

This team is destined for a losing season. I hope I'm wrong but I'm pretty sure I'm not. |

The defense is better overall if only because they're not nearly as old and slow.

LB corps went from worst in the league by a large margin to average-slightly below average, that's a huge upgrade. Secondary is younger, faster, and has more playmaking ability. John Simon appears to be a better pass rusher than anything this team had last year. And the DL, which you didn't mention, gets a fully healthy Henry Anderson along with upgrades in talent at the other positions. I can't see a way this defense could be worse than last year's unit.
