What (in your personal opinion) are some of the KEY improvements this team needs to make in the off season to finally turn the corner? Are they attainable with the offseason ahead of us and the new stable of incoming recruits?
The obvious for me is the offensive line. Even if all else remains as is, significant improvement in that department should get us to 8 wins. I also hope to see more physicality out of our receiving corps. I'm not sure how they're being taught or if the woes of the OL made them seem worse, but it really seemed like they underperformed relative to their talent potential.
Last for me - this area doesn't NEED improvement by any means and in fact is one of our key strengths, but I hope we see our DL take it up a notch and get to the QB more often. Our DL consistently disrupts plays and sends QBs scrambling, but more often than not the opposing QB makes a successful conversion while being chased by Barnett or whoever. As often as they disrupt plays, just imagine if 75% of the time they break through the line the QB is sacked or throws it away. Our defense would be among the best in the SEC.
Thoughts?
