Would you consider a 5 win season disaster averted?
Let's say the following happens:
Tyrod Taylor, Stephon Gilmore, Robert Woods, Lorenzo Alexander, Zach Brown are gone. Kyle retires.
New schemes on both sides of the ball. Likely much tougher schedule.
If you came to me and I was the owner and you were the GM and said you were thinking playoffs next year I would laugh hysterically and then fire you because I want a GM that can play chess not checkers.
Of course as a fan you want to win every game you can. But as a GM you have to understand your roster and come up with a strategy to improve.
