Agreed.  BUT this staff is much more proven in terms of working together effectively than previous groups of coaches we've had, as evidenced by successfully going through two recent implementations as a group, so I'd expect them to be able to duplicate the success they've had in both previous instances here.  Personnel limitations at key positions will hold the team's potential back, IMO.  But we're already beginning to see these issues being rectified on the recruiting trail.

IMO, the key will be how well Dungey can be prolific quickly in the new system, and how well the OL can protect him.  If both of those question marks are answered positively, I could see us winning 6 games, and being in several others.  I'm very encouraged by the offseason conditioning work the team has put in--they seem really dedicated to making things work.

Depth... system fits... those are definitely things to be concerned about, at least on this roster.  I agree with Anomander's take above about the offense being better than people expect this year, while the defense will probably be worse.
