I wouldn't have any greater expectation for Dalton than I do for Alex Smith. I might have a slightly greater expectation for Rothlisberger and I'd probably have lower expectations for Rivers.

Playoff birth would be a good goal in any of their cases, IMO. I don't think I'd consider it an utter failure if they just missed the first year though. I'd give them a second year to see how the system/players/QB gel.

P.S. Your subsequent posts talking about 9 wins seems much more reasonable to me than the post about "complete and total failure" that I responded to.
