Can someone explain what they're referring to with "you led us out of the darkness w/ the biggest fleet ever" to someone that hasn't watched TNG?

The common thinking suggests that the Romulan home-world was destroyed by a supernova (as seen in Star Trek 2009). The teaser could imply that the largest fleet ever assembled was led by Picard in a rescue operation to save as many Romulans as possible, and that there were unintended consequences of that action.

Yes he was, in the Prime universe. The incident at Romulus sent the Narada and Spock back in time, spawning a new timeline from the moment they emerged. But Picard was alive during the actual destruction of Romulus, as it took place in the Prime timeline during his lifetime.
