It's easy to be hyped about a brand new QB, especially one who was drafted 1st overall, won the Heisman and National Championship, and broke records.
However, as you said, it will still take time for the team to gel.
I still believe the team is 2-3 good OL away from being a true contender, as I simply do not have confidence in whoever plays RG or RT.
If the OL can get solidified, you likely are looking at a team similar to 2005.
Burrow = Palmer
Mixon = Rudi
AJ = Chad
Boyd = Housh
Ross/Tate = Henry

Zac Taylor 2019-2020: 6 total wins
Zac Taylor 2021-2022: Double-digit wins each season, plus 5 postseason wins
Zac Taylor 2023: 9 wins despite losing Burrow half the season
Zac Taylor 2024: Started 1-4. If he can turn this into a playoff appearance, it will be impressive.
Sorry for Party Rocking!
