[QUOTE="lv20gt, post: 522269, member: 2299"] We're talking about expectations. Saying we shouldn't expect 7-8 wins isn't the same as saying it is impossible. A ton of how well we do next year will be with how our opponents develop as well and I doubt anyone here has significantly looked into that. But the fact is we don't have a QB that has proven anything. We don't have an OL that has proven to be able to do what the next system will ask it to. We have no proven go to WR. On offense the only proven thing we have is the RB situation where we should be fine. Now someone will probably step up and be fine, but expecting us not to have serious issues on offense next year as we transition away from the TO is silly it would require almost all the ????s to go in our favor which just isn't likely. On defense we lose 6 starters and weren't strong to begin with. We won 7 games this year. Expecting 7 wins next year is to expect no drop off despite a complete overhaul on both sides of the ball. Based on what exactly? Some will transition well. Some won't. Who do we have that has proven to have good arm talent? Johnson hasn't had a pass in college yet. Graham has had one. Oliver has looked terrible throwing. Yates hasn't stepped foot on campus. We may have someone capable of being the QB we need. But nobody has come close to proving it. And none of them have proven to be consistent receiving threats. Maybe they will step up, but none have proven it. And again, none are proven to be consistent receiving threats. Our leading returning had 8 catches this year. We'll be improved mostly because we couldn't get any worse in pass protection. We'll still likely be weak in that area. Sorry but just switching to a 2 point stance and practicing it a little isn't going to cure those problems. It takes time an experience, and the kind that isn't just gained in one offseason. Based on what? You pointed to a bunch of things that could be true, and very little to proven ability for where we are going. We'll probably get better on defense, but we lose 6 starters and I highly doubt our defense will be able to cover for the issues we will probably have on offense. [/QUOTE]
