It basically comes back to CRed's point. We've done a good job of improving. In June, it's hard for me to fault anything the front office has done, truthfully, given that Cousins was going to leave.
But have we gotten better enough to beat this list of teams?

I've always felt that in the last couple of seasons, the team was on that fine line between being a 10+ win team, and missing the playoffs. There are games that were pretty much won that the team lost. A lot of that may have to do with not being able to have a more ball controlled offensive strategy late in the game. The hope is that with Guice, Thompson, and Perine or Fat Rob, we will have that ball controlled, "sit on the lead and not give the ball back" type of game plan.
