It's a matter of expectations, not absolute numbers.
Here's an analogy: say a bunch of friends make a team and join the NBA, and at the end of the season they are second from the bottom - that would be a HUGE achievement. Now say the Dallas Mavericks (2010-2011 winners) achieved the same second from the bottom result - the same exact absolute number, yet that would be a HUGE disappointment and heads would roll.
