[QUOTE="redmule, post: 114668, member: 1338"] I don't think we will ever have a defense that is commensurate with our offense. That would mean a top 5 defense. The only way we will ever be top 5 is if the offense averages 40 minutes TOP. Could happen I guess. Maybe Ted has us in the top 15 in two or three years. But in some ways our offensive TOP may hurt the defense as our opponents know they are not going to get many possessions, so they go for the throat on each one. We have almost always struggled on the DL. Remember 1990? Coleman Rudolph went about 250 and was an OLB the year before. Marlon Williams was a 210 lb freshman DE. Marco Coleman covered up a lot of deficiencies. That is what we can hope for next year, a special pass rusher (like Morgan or Sneezy) that makes everybody else better. I think Freeman has the best chance at becoming that, but Marcordes might be the one. Freeman might make Gotsis All American. O'Leary and to some extent Chan were very good at finding undersized lineman and growing them. We really really need that growth this offseason, and having 8 starters back improves our odds. What I'm hoping for next year is what we saw the last half of this year: great effort, ball hawking, field goals rather than TD's, lots of people playing so we are healthy going into November.
