I'm trying to be positive here, but I can see I'm DEFINITELY in the minority in this opinion!

You're not entirely wrong. Losing the AFCCG in 2018 probably made us stronger in 2019. Then losing that game against the Titans week 11 in 2019 seemed to prime us for our Super Bowl run.
But losing the Super Bowl itself? I can't ever see that being the optimal outcome.
