Of the Position Groups Listed, in which do You Have the LEAST Amount of Confidence?

Here's how we stand after two weeks of voting:

Most Confident:
1. ???
2. ???
3. ???
4. ???
5. ???
6. ???
7. ???
8. RB (32%)
9. WR/TE (60%)

I'm going with the kicking game this week. I watched the media day coverage and was sold on the OL when Greg Wrubell said that the OL returns more starts than any other position group.

DL. Most underperforming unit of the last 10 years, easy.

If the unit isn't that good to begin with is returning a lot of starters a good thing? I remember watching a game a few years ago against UNLV I think it was and the commentators were raving about how many starters they were returning (on defense I think it was) and I LOL'd because they had sucked the year before so I didn't see how that was advantageous.

I'm not saying our OL sucked last year. I think we have some good incoming talent, but I am not going to believe the OL is even average until I see it. Last year I thought their run blocking was good (although JW made them look good) but their pass blocking was just atrocious at times.

I picked the one that should have won last week. The OL.

I think you typo'd a D when you meant an O.

Return game. Who do we have? Can't have confidence in someone I can't name. And if memory serves, the return game was rather unremarkable last year.
