Key word is "realist." I also happen to predict 8-8, but I can accept 5-11 or 10-6. I can accept those scarred by too many years. And we see here everyday honest debates about players, coaches, schedule, whatever, so we're nowhere close to an echo chamber (and, no, you didn't say we were). What gets most of us riled up are the apparent trolls. 'Tannehill is worse than most backups.' The bashing of TBaum, as if he goes in a closet and makes draft picks. The inability to see any personnel move as a positive. 'Normal' people who disagree will stay in the same county as 'realists.' I seriously doubt anyone wants to ban those inclined to be negative as long as perspectives show some integrity.
To be fair, I think Tannehill is a 12-16 QB out of 32. Some negatives call me a homer, Those who think he's top 10 call me negative. So there's quilt on both ends.
