Look at the times we've replaced great/good senior QB's lately:

1995 7-4, #58 D, Sark as new JC transfer, below avg RB's in Heimuli and Atuaia, subpar receiver group
1997 6-5, #50 D, Fet as inexperienced soph, avg RB's in McKenzie and Johnson, bad receiver group
2000 6-6, #66 D, QB problems with Engy/Peterson/Doman, RB's looked good going in but performed below avg with Staley inconsistent, great receiver group with Hooks, Pittman, Horton
2002 5-7, #74 D, thought we would be good at QB with Engy, RB looked good with Whalen but turned out very bad year at RB, WR’s were expected to be good with Mahe, Nead, Ord but turned out below average

Compared to this data set, I think our D will be favorable, our RB’s will be average, our WR group might be above average (a lot depends on Collie), and our OL should blow away any year. Next year’s OL should be one of our best ever.

So in all, I expect next year to be the best or near the top of any of these four seasons, but that doesn’t say much looking at the records.
