If Emery can become the explosive piece in the running game we are on our way to the season we want.

I am not trying to be negative, but I think everyone needs to temper the expectations for someone who has not played in a real game in over a year. Kelly has even alluded to it; he's not going to get 20+ carries this came and carry us.

The defense is going to be the key piece. The have to tackle and get off the field on 3rd down. They do that combined with what should be a lively atmosphere, then I like where we stand. They don't, well oh frick watch out.
