That's why I don't buy it when people try to claim they weren't crushed by the '95 loss because Bono wasn't going to win anyway.
In hindsight, sure. But in relief in '94 and as a starter in '95, Bono looked for all the world like a perfect fit for Marty's run-first, deep play-action passing style offense.
By 1997 I'd become calloused by defeat so it didn't sting as badly. The Chiefs broke me down pretty quickly.
