Evidently, yes. They were wrong.
And Poe isn't saying the Flames are terrible, he's saying the Flames are mediocre (with the odd good and bad years). And nothing is worse than that. Especially when you consider the contract situation and prospect pool (again, this situation isn't terrible, but it's mediocre).
