Good point, but this team didn't stand still and say "we are good, but we had blah, blah, blah..."

They made significant moves to improve every facet of this team:

Coaching changes on defensive coordinator, offensive line, and offensive coordinator (gets first full season and offseason). 
They addressed the offensive line and turned one pick in to two starters.
They addressed the LB quality with a great FA signing in Brown.
They didn't lose any key players.
They have players returning from injury, like Ross and Eifert.
The draft will provide competition at safety, DE, RB,  and LB which are all areas that needed improvement.  
AJ Green is in a contract year (that can't hurt).
Westerman and Redmond are ready and much better options than Hopkins. 

I am really excited for this season.  If the rushing attack is as improved as I believe it may be, the synergy of helping Dalton, resting the defense, not turning it over on third-and-two, etc, will really make a huge impact on this team.
