where would you assume the offense was ranked in the basics like points scored and yardage? In an offensive line that features Pro Football Focus’s best guard from 2022, a well-respected and still-talented veteran left tackle, a promising rookie left guard, a former first-round pick and mauling run blocker at right tackle, and an athletic mid-round pick at center who has garnered solid grades this year from PFF, if nothing else.Modest contracts and draft capital in a veteran tight end who had success in the head coach’s offense in the past, a player fresh off an 800-yard receiving season, a speedster who has worked effectively out of the slot at fast stops, and a veteran receiver who was buried on the depth chart with his old team but had a great season just a couple of years ago.
A decent-sized one-year contract in a bullying back with 14 rushing touchdowns over the past two years, plus a fifth-round pick in a back who is coming off a 1,000 yard season.Three top-10 draft selections in weapons for the offense, including a tight end, a wide receiver, and a running back.In a head coach who calls plays and was a hotshot offensive coordinator for one of the league’s most potent rushing attacks and most effective ground games.Take your feelings and your knowledge out of the equation for a moment for everything I’m about to say.
