Someone wins the Super Bowl every year. Nobody goes undefeated, almost ever.

Do you remember the 18-1 Patriots with awe? Or do you remember them as a punchline of history up there with the Buffalo Bills losing four straight Super Bowls? As great teams who went so far but are more remembered for coming up short than they are for their historic accomplishments.
If your only goal is to make history regardless of the end result, then that too can be your fate.
