We may know our starting QB tomorrow. If we could just get above average QB play i think we have a chance to be really good offensively. I don’t think we miss a beat with Yasin at RB and should provide us a better run attack with an improved run blocking OL. WR’s are deep and talented as well. We just need someone to get them the ball and keep the defense honest.

Defensively, it certainly doesn’t seem like we have near the talent as last year, but from everything I hear it sounds like the defense is improved.  Maybe it’s year 2 in the system, maybe it’s offensive problems at QB?  I think Grant played hurt a lot last year. It didn’t seem like he had any burst and seemed he was labored while running. I think Samuels will give a nice boost to the corner position and Grant could be a ball hawing STAR.  I’m a bit concerned about LB, but i actually like our DL. Good size and depth, which isn’t norm for our defenses. The guy im keying on to break out is David O.  I think he has the potential to be an 8-10 sack guy and all-ACC potential.

Off breakout - Yasin
Def breakout - David O

As always it’s going to come down to quarterback and if they can get our talented WR’s the ball. I’m not breaking the wheel with this prediction, but JRS, Cook, and Gill all have the potential for 600 + yards and one close to 1,000 if they can get  them the rock.

Also, worried about ST’s. Looks like Oh is going to win the starting job. Doesn’t give me confidence. Stonehouse will be good but hopefully we don’t see him that often.
