Everyone knocks List SZN, but I honestly love it: every new list acts as a barometer for where fans' heads are really at right now.
It's easy to be excited about next season in the middle of the offseason; everyone's a Championship Weekend contender right after they make a first-round pick. Now, with nothing but two weeks of lists standing between us and actual football, reality's starting to settle in. The tone of the year is set in these two weeks, whether we like it or not.
So maybe it's a good thing that, with Bears' training camp so close, people are starting to doubt Ben Johnson.
