That team needs a major overhaul.
They need to protect Freeman better and maybe give him more weapons.
Ronde Barber should retire and I'm not sold on Aquib Talib. There defence is young so has a decent chance of improving.
We are a talented young team I feel. Freeman is a good QB as he has shown over the last 3 years (8 4th quarter comebacks isn't bad for an underachieving team). Johnson is a decent back up, and if we carry 3 QBs next season it will allow him to do what he does best - run the option - from time to time.
Blount and Graham are a solid HB/FB combination.
Talib, and the defence in general tbh, are the weakest links. We got to an NFC Championship game, and won a Super Bowl with a feared defence - we need that back.
Still a new coach, and one who turned around a college program to the extent they could compete, fills me with optimism. The draft will be interesting as we have an early first round pick.
