Right.  You listed a bunch of "maybes," followed each of them with the word "truth," and then called the whole post "facts."  

And then you claim not to be spinning anything.  

You might want to reassess what you think "spin" is.

Nope not buying that at all, it is not hard at all to convey what I was saying if you were trying to have an honest conversation. Let's try phrasing it like this, since I clearly underestimated the level to which people will go to purposefully misconstrue a point.

1. The FACT that we had a bottom 5 schedule and will be replacing bottom ranked teams with top ranked teams means we will PROBABLY be facing a much harder schedule next year.
2. The FACT that our division was awful and will be getting various upgrades from QBs returning, new coaching, injured top contributors returning, etc means our division will PROBABLY be more competitive next year.
3. The FACT that we only missed 3 total starts from our entire defense and only had one serious offensive contributor on IR all year means that we will PROBABLY not have such fortunate injury luck next year.
4. The FACT that we have the most money dedicated to our 2018 cap and that most teams have far more cap space means other teams will PROBABLY be able to add higher impact players than us.
5. The FACT that almost every team has more draft capital than us means they will PROBABLY get better by a factor larger than us.
