1. Defense is no fluke and we're going to get a boost when Fuller returns. Being 5-3 isn't good enough in this division but the season isn't over yet and that defense is going to ensure we're in the mix all the way to the end for the playoffs. Don't know about you guys but I still appreciate mattering for the playoffs.
2. OL opened holes in the run game again. The makings of a very good run game are there. This is another thing that should help us over the remaining and very tough schedule.
3. While the WR corps has underwhelmed a bit we have a boost incoming with Jefferson. Once he settles in as WR3 we are going to feel his addition and it should help our beleaguered QB.
4. At RB we have a guy who can be the horse this offense needs in Akers. I love what Hendy's done but he can't take the pounding. He's a change of pace back. Akers offers a potential answer at RB once McVay finally gets over Brown.
5. Goff is not some garbage QB. He's a plus QB who needs good players around him. He still has room to improve and his growth is going to be a big determining factor in how far this team goes. We can't run the ball every play. We need this guy to make downfield throws and force defenses to defend the entire field and he's shown he can do that he just needs to do a better job of being in rhythm early in games. I don't know what the answer is, but the good thing is we have a fine offensive staff who should be able to figure that out.
I know folks are pissed. Just trying to throw some perspective out there: this team still matters and still has a shot.
