The teams who have perpetual winning in the postseason could be following some best/better practices than those teams who constantly keep getting "close but no cigar."

Yep. Management/Ownership/Organizational Culture/Processes/etc.

To not win a playoff game for 27 years and be an extreme outlier, you have to be at the other end of the extreme and not be doing things similar to even the average teams. And we see statistics of how the Steelers and Ravens have 2X and 3X as many player personnel people as us for instance. They also have good GM's. They have owners who don't micromanage.

They've each won 2 Super Bowls while we've yet been able to win 1 playoff game.
