How is this not obvious to you?
NFL fans rate teams other than their own all the time. And they don't do it based on which team won a playoff game most recently because that is kind of a silly way to do it.
When the Bengals were making the playoffs on a regular basis no one was claiming the Browns and Lions were better franchises because they had won a playoff game more recently. And if they make the playoffs and win a game this year there is not going to be a sudden change in the way the Bengals are viewed by the rest of the NFL community.
Only in Bengal land is it argued that teams that make the playoffs and don't win are no different from teams that don't make the playoffs. Once a team makes the playoffs it is all about winning Championships, not single playoff games.
