I made a post about it in the Magic thread, but since the meltdown is still happening through Monday, maybe it deserves it's own thread.
Stole this little tidbit from the Simmons Podcast.
Here's the teams that went to 4 straight Super Bowls.
Spoiler!
90's Bills
End.
Not the Cowbitches decade of dominance.
Not the Steel Curtain shitfaces.
Not the Cheatriot fuckbags.
Not the hog-era Skins teams.
Not those Walsh 9ers teams.
What we're trying to do is hard. And this is why it's hard. Injuries, Age, Complacency, Stale Messages, it's hard man.
I'm as pissed at anybody for wasting a Prime year of Mahomes, Hill, and Kelce, but sometimes some perspective is needed. I admit that in the thick of it it's hard to see the forest through the trees, and goddamn it, on paper it should be better. The same dudes aren't performing like they did before.
But as they say this is why they play the games.
It sucks, but what we're trying to do is hard. Really hard. [Reply]

Surely you don't think this an issue with not wanting to do it.
Going to 2 straight SB's made making a 3rd one even more daunting from a mere statistical standpoint.
The Bills 4 straight SB's is really incredible though they never won one.
I guess I should have been a little more over the top with that post because I was trying to be absurd. As a Chiefs fan, I never thought I see us getting to even one, let alone winning it. And as a Nebraska fan, I learned in the 90s that the second time just isn't anywhere as sweet as the first one. And any more after that I'd be afraid we'd all become raging douchebags like Patriots fans.

On top of that, while Buffalo made 4 straight, they were only competitive in one of them. [Reply]

I'm good.
Damn sorry my sarcasm meter is probably broken from yesterdays game and arguing with Donger's dumb ass today. [Reply]

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, the record is safe [Reply]
After last SB loss, I dared to hope that we would be back in it for a 3rd, even though that is very very hard to do. My hopes have dwindled on that, though I'm not saying it's impossible. But DAMN...some shit needs to change and fast. It's not just about barley getting into the playoffs, it's about belonging there because you play damn good football down the stretch. We've got time, but it's looking way more bleak than I would have anticipated. I was expecting 12 wins minimum. Still possible. But not bloody likely the way things look now. [Reply]
