improved in the trenches so that won't be as big of a factor in this year's game.

I don't get the assertions that Utah's offense will struggle at first. Yes, it's a new system, but it mostly only affects the passing game, which we'd be hard pressed to do worse than last year. We finally have a legit QB coach, to go along with more talent at WR, and our OC probably won't be pulling passing plays out of a hat.

I think whichever team can win the battles in the secondary and make the most impact plays in the run game will win this year.
