Here are my questions. If everyone says 4 out of the 5 parts of our line was so good, can a bad center really wreck an O line or are we over valuing some of the other parts?
Why did we not run behind our full back more?
Why are all of the coaches surprised we did not run more, don't they call the plays?
Why are we staying an a Zone scheme when it only worked the Kubiac year, our line was made to maul not finesse?
Besides Zuttah, the personnel on our offensive line are all effective at what they do. It picked up in the latter part of the year and a lot of that is credited to the emergence of Dixon as a two dimensional back. That opened things up with Flacco and the defense had to defend the pass more. I really hope we don't make some enormous move to get a premier back when we could use that money in more needed areas. Dixon and West is a good combination and I think Dixon may take over some football games in 2017.
No point in thinking about the what ifs
Great. Go Patriots.. =/
We took a chance on Will Hill and that worked for a while. Dumb move on releasing him. We could have really used him after 10 games.

Can we fire our medical team?

Says who? Hester tried. Blocking sucked
We look pretty dumb cutting Hester now
Just now, rossihunter2 said:wth hell hester - did we just not block well on kick returns or something when he was here?
We just suck thats all.
Pete Carroll said they're gonna knee every kick off, too. But heres Hester getting a return from deep in the end zone.

Pryor would be excellent. He does a lot of things well and could truly open up the play book since he can pass the ball as well.
Could have a very solid coaching staff next season.

Our ticket prices were in the bottom half of the league. Our record, though disappointing in the end, wasn't.
We don't need to add ANY backs that aren't measly camp fodder. Dixon and West are a good enough combination. What we need is a more run oriented mentality and that starts with the coaches. I'm gonna be pissed off if we draft a running back in the first round when we have far too many other weaknesses.
Mike Williams or Corey Davis would do wonders for our offense
The only thing that can change my mind about a pass rusher is maybe Corey Davis. That kid is explosive.

But now, since Ray Lewis' retired, I have grown appreciation for Brady. Whether we like it or not, Brady is a legend, and we should be thankful to watch a legend like him play possibly his final season.
Its not his final season and I for one don't care to see him win another superbowl. Go Packers.
Damn harrison retire already
Games not over
He showed us some strong playmaking ability I hope he sees plenty of action next season.

Berry and Weddle in our secondary would be amazing.
We have the running backs, the full back, and the right guard to make this a very dangerous ground game and it'll all go to waste without a more run oriented coordinator.
Weakest division in the NFL in the AFC South is on our schedule so that's not too bad. Sweeping that division is not unlikely.
Kenny Bell has some burners
The offense did improve but im still disappointed by this. Marty does not mix in the run with the pass well. This ground game needs to flourish under a zone blocking scheme minded coordinator.

Only 24 with so much more he was gonna improve on throughout the years. We just can't catch a break.
