It really needs to translate into wins this year. Year 3 equals no more excuses.

I personally think year 4 will be the break out year, especially if we start 2016 with a true FR as QB.

I have been a Strong apologist but I really need 8 to 9 wins. And to compete in every game.

 

[tejasrulz]

I hear you but the last 3 drafts should tell you what Strong was left with. I still say year 4 will be the break-out year even though I hope I'm wrong and guessing 1 yr too late.

I think that a lot will depend on how Shack holds up at center. If he can hold up against good defensive lines and stay healthy, it will help Boo a great deal.

We are thin wrt quality, experienced depth on the o-line. Our young line needs to stay healthy.

So, what does this mean?

Mack left Charlie nothing so he had to start guys before they were ready? Or youth is no longer an excuse and Charlie has the pieces in place to compete.

Whatever happens this year, pro and anti Charlie folks will tout one side.

I'm tired of 'who's fault it is' debates. I just want some damn wins.
