2021 Offensive Outlook: Our keys to success on offense are staying healthy, being able to maintain drives and move the chains, and being able to finish drives scoring touchdowns.

2021 Defensive Outlook: Our keys to success on defense are not giving up explosive plays to the opponents’ offense, creating turnovers, and for our team to “get off the field” and give the ball to our offense.

2021 Special Teams Outlook: We have to win the field position battle by being solid on special teams, not missing our extra points, and by creating turnovers.
