It is obviously better to win in the playoffs than to loose in the playoffs, but unless it is a Super Bowl win (or maybe even a Conference Championship) I am not going to trade one playoff win in one season for a decade of losing in the regular season.

I don't see anything "amazing" by that line of thought at all.

You said

Quote:But short of that I don't see a huge difference between making the playoffs and losing in game one and making the playoffs and losing in round two.

But then said it's better to win in the playoffs than lose, even if it's only one win. So there is a difference between winning one game than none. That's the "amazing" line of thought I was referring too. And why do we have to trade a decade of losing for winning a playoff game or two? Why can't we have a natural progression of winning, making the playoffs, and winning in the playoffs? 

Why is it that, if the goal is to win a Super Bowl, we can't be upset that we haven't even got past the first round in almost 3 decades while also enjoying the progression of to this point (making the playoffs)?
