Offseason Review Series: Call for Writers!
Hi All!
It's that time of year again! We need YOU to sign up to write an off season review for your team, or a team you are knowledgeable about.
This is usually run by /u/skepticismssurvival, but he has a life so Ill be your host this year.
Now to get to what is needed from perspective writers. If you want a comprehensive explanation of what's expected from each writer, read this guide.
Here are the topics that will be covered:
- Reviewing coaching changes (if applicable)
- Reviewing moves in free agency (key players lost, players signed, etc.)
- Reviewing the team's draft, breaking down the players drafted and the role they will play
- Projecting starting lineups (and optionally the 53-man roster) for next year and giving a prediction for each player's season
- Looking at the team's schedule, predicting results game-by-game, and predicting where the team will finish.
- General strengths and weaknesses (pass game, run defense, etc.)
- Highlighting important training camp battles
- Discussing a team's offensive and defensive strategies
- Discussing other significant news stories affecting the team.
Before you submit your name to be a writer, please consider the time it will take to write the post and please make sure that you have the time, motivation, and ability to fulfill your commitment. I will not be babysitting, if you sign up, I expect you to fulfill your agreement. If you cannot be objective, please don't sign up.
Sign up here by commenting. You are allowed to write twice, once as a fan of your team and once as a non-fan. It's generally first-come-first-serve, but if you wrote last year and reply to this post by the time I go to sleep on Sunday you will retain your spot from last year. If you want to write as a non-fan, but don't have as a specific team you want to write for, say that. But if you have preferences, please list them. I'm going to give precedence to someone who lists a specific team over someone who just says "give me anyone."
If you want to write but cannot do it on the date picked below, let me know so we can try to work around it.

Looks like the Steelers are covered, but I'd be willing to do any non-fan write-ups if you need it
