Qb was an overrated position
Drones isn't accurate and both qbs were injured. Ol, lb, safety were areas we hoped would step up, but those were glaring weaknesses.
Going into '25 the same way. Brought in some players but no playmakers, no depth or both across most of the roster. Don't have a great qb, weak in the trenches and coaching is below avg - coming out not ready to play, ineffective in-game adjustments, poor qb coaching, duplicate numbers on ST multiple times, lost in clock mgt.
We need to clean house but w the big and sec paying $7M-$9M for the best coaches, what's the point when you're paying $4M and hoping a zero experience guy with zero experience coordinators will win big?

Many predicted 8-4 with a 10-2 season when every bounce went the right way.

3–8 is a bad team. 7-6 is NOT a bad team. 24 team had lots of NFL prospects

If the team floundered all through 2023, you wouldn’t have seen the hype.
