I went with the WRs. I think we've seen enough flashes where I'm pretty comfortable that they'll be able to contribute this season, and by year's end I think at least one of them will be playing a key role. Kelly and Thomas both showed some things last night.

I agree. The O-line really concerns me. 3 of the 5 are getting up there in age, the RT is unproven, a few are coming off surgeries, and they are injury prone.

Zorn even admitted he pulled back the reins on the offense last year because he was scared for Jason's life (not a direct quote, but you get it) as a result of the banged up line. If these guys can't stay healthy, we're in deep ish.

The only thing that bothers me about this line of thinking is that you can sometimes get the opposing defense to pull back on a fierce rush by throwing it deep once in awhile. And there are still methods to get the ball downfield when your O-line is hurting by doing roll-outs.

Oh well. Zorn seems to be reinvigorated and clearly is attempting to get big chunks of yards through the air at this point. That's a good thing. But since it's virtually impossible to keep our front five completely healthy for 16 games, you just wonder if we'll be in the same position come November or December.
