above both bunch case forth guy love name prepared rise seems trying

But right now we're not prepared to do that.

Turnovers. That's always my No. 1 answer. We also have to contain their special teams because they do a good job with that. Obviously, we also have to make plays on offense.

believe deep excellent forward gets key looking players safety scary seeing
To me, the key (for us) is the secondary, only because it's a scary position, ... If a lineman gets beat, it usually isn't a touchdown, but if a safety doesn't get deep enough, it is. That's what makes it scary ... but I believe we have excellent players there and I'm looking forward to seeing what happens.
