I don't buy that our O is going to struggle. We've got back nearly everybody but Watkins from an offense that was rocking last year. I haven't been this confident in an offense since 1996--OK maybe 1999 too, although that year was great until the last couple games.

Here's a perspective on why the O isn't racking up points. THE D ISN'T EVEN REQUIRED TO TACKLE. The whistle is blown at any contact and sometimes before contact, not just for the QB but on EVERY play. That alone probably accounts for most of the "struggle" the O has had.

Don't worry about the O. Worry about the DL and secondary.
