Right on, ryebread. Last year we were not particularly strong on defense and there was no QB to blame that on. We may be from a little to somewhat improved on defense with the base 4-2-5 and a few better athletes on the field. And I don’t want to sell the strength and conditioning short either. The proof of the pudding is as always in the eating. Let’s hope we have something on the menu for FSU to chew on.

Defenses are traditionally behind offensive trends which partially explains why “the next hot offensive scheme” works so well. Ask The Hat about that. The offense that was so hot at his last stop has been somewhat caught up with. Too bad for eweNC that they caught him on the top of that curve and hopefully heading down, not on the way up. That may be wishful thinking on my part but so what.

This notion that defenses catch up with offenses, if true, gives me hope for the Pack. Apparently our coaches are creating on the fly with the Wildcat or Wildwolf as I prefer to call it. I see that as an omen that we won’t be stuck with an offense that we have to fire the HC or his OC to fix. IMO that’s what happened to TOB and Bible.

The big question in my mind is can Doeren and Hux (or whoever) keep abreast of the offensive trends and make the necessary adjustments?
