2016 Offensive outlook: (Please let us know the keys about your team on offense. What are your keys to having a successful year?)

Offensively, playing as a TEAM is the key. We have to be able to move the chains on a consistent basis. In order to move the chains, we have to have a good mix of run and pass to keep defenses on their heels. Ultimately, this will help to keep our defense fresh.

2016 Defensive Outlook: (Please let us know the keys about your team on defense. What are your keys to having a successful year?)

Defensively, we have to play within our defensive scheme. Everyone has to have trust in each other believing that everyone will do their job. We need to make offenses earn everything and not give up big plays. Finally, we need to win the take away battle.

2016 Special Teams Outlook: (Please let us know the keys about your team on special teams. What are your keys to having a successful year?)

Special teams are the most overlooked part of football, but it is the most important. We need to be much sharper in all phases of special teams this year. Our punt and kick off teams need to dominate and not give offenses good field position. Our returns teams need to get our offense good field position. Everything starts with SPECIAL TEAMS.
