You know the old you can polish a turd, but in the end, its just a turd and still smells like shit saying? Much like our acceptance of playoff appearances, without victories.

I fully understand that, but some on here think that by the Bengals having their focus be to win a playoff game somehow correlates to not caring to win a SB. Why can't people accept that someone would want to think iteratively and achieve a milestone before putting all the focus on the end game?

The way I look at the Bengals approach is like how plenty of people look at weight loss.
Sure, some individuals may put all the focus on losing 50 lbs, but others first look to achieve the loss of 10 lbs. Only once that is accomplished will they start setting higher goals.
Both approaches can work, there's no one way it has to be approached.
