If the goal is to win a SB and you fail to achieve that, then ultimately while not a failure, you also can not claim success.

But the franchise can be deemed successful as long as the team is winning consistently, the fan base is satisfied and the ownership isn't losing money.

Fielding a consistent team is more important than a one-off Super Bowl victory, especially when said team goes back to the dungeon from which it arose (see the St. Louis Rams and Tampa Bay Bucs).

While I agree that a Super Bowl victory is the ultimate goal of the players, franchise employees and fans, coming short of that goal doesn't indicate failure on any level.
