Okay, which players are in their make or break season this year

As far as the Oline concerns, we are missing two starters and I am not nearly as troubled by them as I am about the interior Dline.

The talk all last year was that we needed to get pressure on the QB. So we focused there. Now we are getting some decent pressure (by the way: I loved that tandem of Smith and Williams in the backfield on Brees forcing the (falsely overturned) fumble and recovery) However, in doing so we neglected basic run defense concepts such as lane integrity and gap assignments.

It just seemed that we were not prepared for the "change-up" we got. Because we definitely got the change-up.
