So yeah if they came out storming this year it would be fun, but I'd have this nagging feeling that something wasn't sorted out yet.
Now they bottom out in November and either gut check, change their style and become a team that can handle adversity and the ramp up come April ... or they won't and the team will re-tool.
The good news for me is the fact that this isn't a 34/28/12 hang on phase, the team has plenty of good young players, if they move a player to change the room they're not starting over.
They have their picks this year too (minus a 4th I think) so there's that.
One way or another just figure out what you have this year and act accordingly in a measured and process driven way.

My biggest comfort thus far is we have draft picks this year if things go sideways.
That being said, my biggest fear is we use those picks to make a desperation trade that won't alter the course of this season and keep us plodding on the same course we've been on for what feels like 30 years.
