As for what to expect from the new coach in his first year...there are a lot of variables that come into play. What to they do in free agency and the draft to address the weaknesses on the roster? How long does it take to implement and get comfortable with the new coach and coordinators system? Has much of a learning curve does Taylor need transitioning from a position coach with fairly limited overall experience, to running the entire show?

I agree with this. While we did start 4-1, the team quickly got to 5-4 before the injuries started piling on. Getting blown out by KC and New Orleans show just how far away this team was from making a playoff run even when mostly healthy.
