I criticized a writer for criticizing the Redskins after a Week 1 loss in a way that only would have made sense before it.
I understand that you need to backtrack on what you said because I called you out on your overreaction but you need to explain what the following means. Because to me that's you saying that it's too late to predict doom because you're observing it (in bold).

People were down-ish on this team in the preaseason, but no one I read picked them to finish below Philadelphia.
