Not saying it is going to with Spags, bit it could. Like I said earlier, Spag's D's tend to run really hot and really cold. Hopefully his hot year coincides with a decent schedule and few injuries on the offense.

If they can just stop the run and stop backs catching out of the backfield it will be a monumental improvement compared to last year.
The question is simply this: Can Spag get us from 31st to 21st in defensive ypg in 2019? With a good offseason from Veach this certainly is achievable.
If we were top 20 in defensive ypg and top 18 in defensive ppg this team would have beaten NE twice, LA Rams and the LA Chargers.
