And we're freaking young, and missing key players due to injury, in theory, we should better as the season goes on. So why can't we be a playoff team?

I mean, by that logic, the Colts were a playoff caliber team last year. But the reality is: they're not a good team and needed Andrew Luck magic to elevate them to the possibility of winning this.
