How young this team is, retainment of coaches, upgrading the weakest part of the roster, not losing any key players, etc.
This team improved through the entire year last year. They weren't the same team the last game of the season than the first week, not even close. That's why I think all of the pundits will get it wrong. They are casuals.
The reason we don’t get any respect? Of course our franchise recent history. Our coach is not well known and still inexperienced. But by the same token it’s unwarranted. We have a big time QB, ROY, and other stars. But it’s going to take at least a late run in 2022 into the playoffs minimum to get some. Teams with coaches like Andy Reid ( Taylor and Lou schooled him twice), John Harbaugh ( Taylor has as many SB trips) Mike Tomlin ( Taylor whooped him twice this year and has won 3 straight) and others give teams instant credibility. It is what it is. Some get it. If you polled the top 20 NFL media people we’d do better than the top 100.
