Great year, though? I guess that depends on your definition of "great". I think this team wins a few more games but I think 7 wins is their absolute ceiling, barring some HUGE spending in FA.
Throwing a rookie QB on to a last place team and then wanting or hoping for greatness is akin to wanting or hoping for Kate Upton to knock on your door at midnight, after her car just broke down, and she just happens to be both decently drunk and stupidly horny.
My idea of "great" would be to have a really good draft first of all. We havent in quite a few years. A few real FA additions that are actual upgrades would be huge, and basically getting this team stable and trending upward. Being a team on the rise with a bright future. Thats great to me coming off this disaster season. Getting a franchise QB to build on, rookie year/mistakes or not, is pretty great in its own right. He doesnt have to be a pro bowler or win 10 games as a rookie for him to be the future of the team. Going from 2-14 to the playoffs isnt even on my radar really, but getting us trending in that direction with some young talent to build upon definitely is.
