Those are two different things. See, with a curse? The blame is cosmic. It's not our fault as fans. We happen to root for a cursed team. Nothing we can do. Sigh.
But with the mindset of this is just who the Chiefs are as a franchise? Then the blame isn't with some spiritual power. It's with humans. It's with dozens of small mistakes that together add up to poor results.
You can do everything to support a cursed team but they'll still lose. There's actually comfort in that. You know the outcome. You can more easily accept the outcome.
But if you don't believe in curses, then you know that your support is for a team that still can win, and just fails time and again to do so. The outcome is in question. Hope is alive, which means so is disappointment.
