Thomas, Royal are not a 1-2 punch. Any mix of Thomas, Royal and Decker are not a valid 1-2 punch.
And, the defense has a areas of serious upgrade... they've got a lot of nice youth ready to step up, but they're not ready to make a serious playoff push. It was a nice season compared to what the expectations were and despite what we saw, I do think that TT can improve. It will be interesting to see how they address their needs in FA and the draft.

They were lucky as hell this season on many accounts. They "won" a division at 8-8 tied with two other teams. Shoot had Marion Barber not run out of bounds, they lose to the Bears and don't win the division. The division was shit and they did enough to win it and enough weird stuff happend to go thier way for them to win it. I disagree with your take on Tebow. IMO, they are all they're gonna be with TT. College offense with a college QB. While TT was a big part of their season this year, he will hold them back in the future. Just my take...
