OFFENSE
Seriously, I think our offense will be fine, as long as the OL plays reasonably well. The issue of course will be the play of the tackles. We may yet wish that we kept Gorin instead of Britt. We may find out tomorrow. We could score a lot of points if Jackson and Dillon are anywhere near 100%. Dillon and Jackson, and one more week of learning for Gabriel should more than overcome any loss from the loss of O'Callaghan, assuming that Light is OK.
DEFENSE
Unlucky for the fourth straight year at defensive back?????!!!! I guess we need to HOPE that Hawkins is healthy. Pass the koolaid, because I think our defensive backfield is no match for Cinci's offense (and no amount of scheming will make it so). Hopefully, it IS 1a match for Miami and Buffalo. The only hope for tomorrow seems to be to blitz early and often, an act of true desparation. Or, we can make believe that Asante, Chad and Hank will stop Cinci's passing game straight up, without blitzes. The game is the hands of the front seven. We will need plenty of top work from them.
