I believe they could surprise. This team seems to have a chippiness to them anymore. Have to prove things. Players are hungry.
However, that offensive line is a train wreck. The coaching staff has taken a step back with Vance Joseph being gone. Sure, Zampese gets another year under his belt, but I'm also very pessimistic with his play calling, we had one of the worst red zone offenses we've had in YEARS.
If the offensive line actually does a decent job, I see a post-season berth. Also, throw in the Bengals have the weakest strength of schedule.
