Leadership from the players. These guys took it upon themselves to win which is a great thing to watch.
The teams with the best players can win playing the system, but the other teams have to have a chemistry and a goal and desire to achieve it. They had that this year.
And imo it started with Burden, they don’t do this without him.

There's a lot of truth in this post. Burden became the magnet that induced others to come.
IMO we're going to be hard pressed to repeat 2023 based on the sheer volume of player losses on defense and leadership overall. Fortunately our early schedule is exceptionally soft so hopefully roles can be filled and new leadership can emerge. If so, 10 wins and a shot at the 12 team playoff is possible.

Clark is right on the money here.
LBIII is an ultra competitor, and that stuff rubs off. Darius Robinson was a great leader on D and many others on defense followed suit. Replacing Baker and finding new leadership on the field defensively are the two biggest question marks going into 2024, but we've got a handful of well-seasoned players to build around (Williams, Walker, Carnell, Charleston, Norwood).
I expect our offense to be solid.
