2022 Offensive Outlook: “Establish the run game more this year. Our passing game with Lopez at the helm will be our strong suit but we have to establish the run first. O-line has to protect. We need to set the tone early and make some big plays.”

2022 Defensive Outlook: “Pressure on the QB and stopping the run is key. We have to tackle and play physically. Our Linebackers and Defensive Backs will be our strong suit on defense. We have a stout nose guard in Martinez. A. Roman and King should dominate the LB position. And our secondary with J. Roman, Perkins, and Plummer should be lights out.”

2022 Special Teams Outlook: “With Cruz back as our Punter/Kicker I would like to see us pin the other team in their own territory a lot. Cruz has a strong leg so I’m hoping to see some kickoffs reach the Endzone. We need to cover better on punts. We returned a few kickoffs last year so I’m hoping we can do that again this year. And we have to get better at Extra Points/Field Goals which we only had one extra point made off of the leg of L. Clemons.”
