I expect more boom than bust with the revamped offensive line though.

Boom or bust?
You have 8-9 players in the box on every single play. You have Daboll practically putting his playcalling on the scoreboard, he was that predictable. You have an offense that literally refused to throw the ball over 20 yards.
Jamaal Charles was NOT predictable in 2010, and that was behind shitty Matt Cassel again seeing 8 men in the box.
On almost every play I see 3 guys in the backfield and Charles slips away. I can't count the number of times he slipped away from a backfield that 99% of RBs would have taken for a loss.
