What happened to the middle ground?

"Best team ever!"  "This is the team to beat!"  "Long season for..."  these were the headlines after 1 week of football.  I wondered how true would people be if things were reveresed in week 2.  Sure enough the tune changed completely.  Let's look at some examples
Jets put a whoopin on the Bills week 1.  They score an NFL high of 48 points and everyone is ready to annoint them the beasts of the East.  Fast forward to Sunday and the Jets lose to a good Pittsburgh team.  Now the headlines are filled with "Calls for Tebow to start with Jets."  take the Cowboys.  They beat reigning super bowl champs the Giants in the season opener.  Sunday they get beat soundly by Seattle.  The same ones who were ready to have a part for Dallas's ceremonious return are the same ones asking if "they have the right QB for the team." 
Where is the middle?  Is there anyone who believes in a win is a win and a loss is a loss.  A win (this early) isn't the catapult to a 16-0 season and promises of future greatness.  Nor is a loss (this early) the begining of the Apocalypse for your team. No one has perspective anymore.  I guess because society is used to the sensationalism.  People want the extreme story. Nobody wants to hear the truth--really?  Truth is the vast majority of teams have work to do.  Some more than others.  For other teams (like my beloved Raiders) there's a lot that needs to be done but not much to do it with.
