BnB, contend? Yes, in every game they play. Win? Probably not. Statistically new QBs (whether rookies or pickups) and new HCs don't do well their first year.

That said, I'm looking forward to seeing the stupid mistakes disappear (false starts, offsides, etc.) and the team play more cohesively. I think we'll lose games by less than four on average. And I'd like to see the FO take this year seriously and put money AND THOUGHT into each acquisition. I’d like to see this team end no worse than 8-8 and be even more competitive than that. It’s a tough division with Carolina always playing well, Tampa’s D never seeming to have an off year, and Vick just being Vick in Atlanta always makes for a wild game.

I'd love to say this or that pickup or draft would make the team this year, but it's probably not going to happen.
