Positives:
good draft, with some awesome talent
good position coaches: Tomsula , Callahan, Gray
solid TE's
got more athletic at ILB & S
Hopkins looked solid in pre-season

Unknowns:
how big is the void the McVay depature will leave on scheme
Gruden calling plays (he was 4-12 the last time he did that)
how much of Kirk's success was related to Djax & Garcon?
Manusky's more aggressive scheme - will it really work?
Do we have a true kick returner on the roster?

Downright Negatives:
Never seriously addressed the NT position
freaking run blocking still sucks
Dalls & NYG were better than us last year and Philly looks improved

Too many unknowns for me to feel good, especially after not seeing any life during the pre-season.

So, for those reasons...I'll say 7-9
IMO 9-7 or 8-8 would be a solid season. We still lack talent on def. Esp secondary. Norman is the only guy we csn rely on. Breeland sucks, cravens is always hurt, DJ looks solid but AZ let him walk so ehh.
