Sports fandom is a game of varying levels of misery. Pretty much all fans think the sky is falling no matter who they root for. Our brand of misery is more sustained than others, sure, but it's really not that different than the misery of everyone else.

Most teams in the league right now would LOVE to have the team we have right now, warts and all.

I agree

If we could dump our history from 1990-2017, fans would have more confidence

Sad

Dolphins haven’t won a playoff game since 2000 but nobody gives them a hard time about it because they don’t have “9 straight playoff losses” like we did in 2015.

There’s nothing wrong with this team. If this franchise was started in 2005 fans would be beside themselves with joy and extremely excited about the playoffs as they should be: there are no dominant AFC teams, in fact KC has been the most
doninant: we don’t lose to bad teams or get blown out and we are the only NFL team that can say that.

Reality is this team can make a Superbowl it’s a 50/50 tossup for each playoff game.
