They're very different experiences. I went through those years from 94 to when Rivers was drafted.
Now that the Chief's have Mahomes, you're entering what I've experienced since Rivers was drafted.
Every year you don't win it all will only tarnish Mahomes image. And be more painful than an 8-8 season.

In his first season, Mahomes took a historically bad defense to a 1 seed and an offsides penalty away from the SB.

Rivers has blown seasons with teams that were considered elite year-after-year.
