I think we're going to be able to compete with just about anybody, if we are healthy.  I think this game is our statement.

The free agent signings were mostly viewed at either talent replacement or even perhaps a decline in talent at those positions.

That is why many fans weren't necessarily excited going into the season.

Those newly acquired FAs have more than exceeded their impact for the team.

I might also add that no one knew how Burrow would perform coming back quickly from such a serious injury.
