Joey Harrington's got much better players around him than he did back in Detroit. He's not going to put up Pro Bowl numbers by any stretch of the imagination, but he should be decent for them.
They're certainly not playoff contenders, but I don't see them dropping to the basement of the league, especially not in a still-weak NFC.
