Maybe we got caught up trying to be the next patriots. Take a deep breath and realize that we’ve already made more super bowls than Brees and rodgers did their entire career. And we all know the next one is inevitable.
We are an outstanding team but guess what, other teams got pretty good too. Josh Allen and joe burrow are a problem even against good defenses. We should know that feeling. That feeling where a great qb has their way with our defense is what many defenses felt after feeling the wrath of mahomes.
But here’s the rub. We’ve transitioned to our long term plan. Bengals and bills have not. And they will desperately claw at this until they do. Either they win a Super Bowl soon and claw back to reality. Or they keep loading up until the dam inevitably collapses.
I’m at peace with it. We still have a terrific shot at winning this even though the road will be very tough. Our present and future is extremely bright. The bills and bengals have massive hills yet to climb. It’s just not going to be as easy as we thought it would be.
