Outlook: Coach Bob Ferguson has ten starters back but must trust a new starter at QB. Justin Dominguez takes over under center with Joey Mendoza back at RB. Noe Saenz will also see carries. On defense, Mendoza will play LB along with Saenz and Matthew Stanberry. The team has a lot of gaps to fill and should be better towards the end of the season.
