It is quite simple, actually. With six games played there are still 42 remaining on the schedule. In other words, this is a woefully incomplete dataset, and rather than make preemptive judgements and predictions of doom and failure, some of us would prefer to let things play out a little longer, especially based on a number of the considerably positive things we have seen in the course of the games themselves.

I don't really think this is "spin". It is measured optimism that the record may in fact improve in due course.
