This is the Playoffs

To be honest, given the postseason history of this team, I would like to see them play in the AFC Championship.  I don't care if they get there as 1, 2, or 3 seed.  Anyway that you slice, it means that they had some amount of success in the playoffs.  As  guy who has been watching this team falter for 30 years, I'd be content with that.  Of course I would be disappointed initially, but I would still see it as a successful season.

This^^^^ I think for a week or so I would be bummed out lose in AFCCG or Super Bowl, but after cooler heads prevail I would consider it a great success for this organization.
