    He has kept a low profile for his performance.

    We did good to keep the defense together. I hope keeping Boyer was the right move. Hopefully, he has something to add to the scheme that improves it instead of simply maintains what's already worked.

    Always be innovating.

    They still have the DL and Linebacking coaches as well. Hopefully, Surtain and Madison help with the innovation and technique.

    My guess for 2022:

    Offense: 10th
    Defense: 12th
    Special Teams: 16th

    Offense: 10th
    Defense: 4th
    Special Teams: 10th

    If the offense is better, it makes the other two units better simply by providing more time off the field (for the D) and putting the other team in worse field position and giving opponents fewer opportunities (for ST). If our time of possession goes from 30:31 to 31:30 due to improved offensive efficiencies, it should make the other two units significantly better.

    In theory it works that way, but it doesn't always translate. If you ranked higher in Defense, maybe it was because the offense was so bad that the other team got better field position and on their scoring drives didn't accumulate enough yards.
    Lets say the Offense gets better. Miami is playing Buffalo, Miami doesn't score but drives down the field farther and when they give the ball back to Buffalo it is at the Buffalo 20 instead of midfield. Josh Allen has one of those drives where he is going to score no matter what. Last year the D would give up 50 yards, this year its 80. Could be be the same D-unit.

    Lol What the? This man is a hater.

    That's a worst case scenario offensive ranking. Like major injuries or the scheme(s) they run imploding somehow.

    I would say based on our highly favorable +/- in personnel from this year to last is impressive. Thusly our ceiling is probably about 8-10 ranked O(The only way we break the ceiling is Tua to break out(or Teddy.) Or it could be a disaster and be 20th. That guy is saying 27 thats saying our O will be a natural disaster. How can you look at this offense on paper and think that.. even with Tua.. Tua is still avg imo but with all this talent less avg QBs have found success.

    But I digress, I say 12th offense 6th defense.

    I'd love it if Noah could slot into the nickel. Right now, he's looking like the worst miss of that draft. And that's saying a lot, with all of the angst over Tua and AJ.

    This is a make or break year for all three from that first round, not just Tua. For Noah, I’d say he’s fighting for his NFL life. Doubt he gets picked up elsewhere if he gets cut. AJ might find a second contract as a backup somewhere, but he’ll need to show marked improvement even for that opportunity. If Tua fails with the weapons around him, well….

    Noah should have been drafted in the later rounds, Jackson as a third round flier, then we wouldn’t be looking at this as possibly the worst first round in history (it’s not often a team gets to pick three times before others pick once).

    We have good talent on both sides of the ball. But it hurts to realize that the opportunity cost for Noah was a much better player with the #26 pick (let alone a likely starter with Noah's pick). It speaks to hubris on the part of Grier and/or Flo that they thought they could develop a raw inexperienced guy with better attributes than game tape. I'm convinced they thought he'd take X's spot after a year and we could get out of X's contract. That's why X had zero problems using his leverage to get us to back up the Brink's truck.

    Play stupid games, get stupid prizes.

    Drafting players is a crap shoot in every draft,you can only hope you get the guy you thought you picked.

    I’m sure that was exactly what they were thinking - that he would replace X. What makes it worse is that they could have tried that several rounds later and gotten a top tier prospect at #26.
