Or do they need more in terms of the run fit, in your opinion, than what's actually current on the roster?

How much can we expect to bounce back from the guys they already have?

Kyler Gordon's going to be huge.

If he can stay healthy, obviously he hasn't shown that he can do that yet, but once again, that's one of those guys to where you don't want to have to go base defense to stop the run when they come out with two tight ends.

You want to be able to stay nickel like the Seahawks did.

That's just going to be my quote of the day, like the Seahawks did.

They go dime, they go nickel, they never play base.

If you can still stay out there, and Kyler Gordon's a guy that's physical enough that he can take on a tight end and still get to his run fit, he can still tackle the ball carry, he's really good at that, that changes things for offenses.

If you don't have that matchup problem where you can motion your wide receiver and get him on a backer, motion your running back, get him on a backer, motion your tight end, get him on a backer, that changes things.

The mismatch isn't there, and now you're going to have to scheme up different ways to try to find advantages for your offense.

And you know what's also interesting when you look at Seattle and you look at Philadelphia, right?

I think these two last Super Bowl shows you, you go back and it was the era of Tom Brady, Mahomes, superstar quarterback.

That's how you win the championships, right?

Then you see Jalen Hurts.

Then you see Sam Darnold win these championships, win these Super Bowls.

What does that tell you?

These guys, minus the Super Bowl, their performance in the playoffs, both of them maybe in the top 10?

I mean, they're not top-level quarterbacks we're talking about here.

So getting a defense like they have, that's becoming a run game.

You saw what Kenneth Walker was able to do.
