2017 Offensive Outlook: We are very young on the offensive line and this will be a key area for us if we expect to replicate the success we had last year. Many of the key weapons from last year are returning and I anticipate a good year for the skill players

2017 Defensive Outlook: The defense is being revamped and I expect our team to be much better against the run this year.
