I'm not asking for a dynasty. I'm asking for a team that can win and take care of business on a fairly consistent basis. And even more, show signs that it will beat the snot out of someone once in awhile. Sure we can win some and lose some and be in most games, but this fan isn't satisfied with that - as I'm sure many are not. Would I take this team over the 4-12 teams of old? Sure, but that doesn't mean I'm content with where we are. And again, I don't think this regime has what it takes to get us even close to a dynasty or even a division title or the Super Bowl. I'm having serious doubts if they can even get us to the playoffs as a wildcard.
No, the fat lady isn't singing, but she's clearing out her throat and warming up the pipes. We're actually lucky that our competitors for AFC wildcard are about as average as we are. It's frustrating that we haven't been able to take advantage of a year when we have a fairly easy schedule and perennial playoff teams like the Steelers, Broncos, Ravens, Titans and Jags are having problems.
