A lot of high hopes for next year are floating around the board. That's great. I'm excited too. i definitely think we should be back pushing Houston for the division crown. Here's a little more detail on what I hope to see play out for next year.

 

Luck: should take a pretty good step forward as we would hope to give him better pass protection and having a year  under his belt should make his decision making that much better. I was really impressed with his arm strength and his accuracy got a lot better as the season went on. I expect him to be in the 25 td range vs 10 or 12 int's.

 

Dewayne Allen: I think he scores 8 td's and has 800 plus yards next year. He's a great target with all the skills for a TE.

 

Vick Ballard: He really impressed me down the stretch this year. Ran really hard and showed he has just enough speed to turn the corner when he has to. Great inside running. I don't expect him to be the next Frank Gore but he'll push 1000 yards next year and Donald Brown will be fighting for playing time.

 

T.Y. Hilton: He was a great compliment to Wayne this year. He was that deep threat we needed and I expect 20 more catches from him next year.

 

Off season: I hope that Grigson sees the offensive line as the biggest area of needed upgrade. I thought the run blocking was much improved this year(and that's not saying much)but the pass protection was scary most of the time. 

 

After that I think the Defensive front 7 has areas to fill and we need another corner. I beleive Freeney is gone so the next biggest need, in my opinion besides OL, is OLB/DE. With the job that Grigson did this last off season bringing in guys who over-acheived I expect him to bring in some guys in FA that he can spend a little more $ on and get even better results. This off season should be fun.

Offensive line WILL be fixed. Grigson was an offensive lineman so I think he saw our oline stunk this year. It had it's good moments no question, but it's not the long term answer

I expect our line will improve,thus giving luck and company an opportunity to jumpout to early leads,so we can feed the defensive monster(blitz...blitz and more blitz).I think jerry hughes collects over 12 sacks.I think we have an opportunity to win the superbowl,if our o-line improves and we add some defensive help.

Have zero confidence in jerry hughes.
