1st year Mahomes sat and Burrow was injured in game 10.
2nd year (1st full starting) Mahomes lost in the AFCCG to Brady and the pats)
3rd year (2nd full starting) Mahomes won the SB vs 49ers.
4th year (3rd full starting) Mahomes lost the SB vs Bucs.
5th year (4th full starting) Mahomes lost the AFCCG to the Bengals.
6th year (5th full starting) Mahomes won the SB vs Eagles.
So, in his first 3 full seasons as the starter, Mahomes lost an AFCCG, won a SB and lost a SB.
In his first 2 full years starting, Burrow lost a SB and lost an AFCCG. So that means he will win the SB this year to match Mahomes first 3 years in a full season starting.

As Pistons pointed out that KC is drafting well too. Yet getting an extra 1st, 2nd, and 4th last year from the Tyreek trade with 2 more pick coming this year helps one do that. Plus it freed up cap space to sign Orlando Brown. Also hitting on Pachecho in the 7th really helps as well.
As you pointed out the Bengals are on the same trajectory albeit will have to dethrone the Chiefs to keep up, they're still far from toothless. But you we all are hoping to do so obviously. Yet we can see what they did after signing Mahomes, they shedded cap space at the WR and RB spot to still be able field a great team around Mahomes knowing those spots are the easiest to replace. It's logical without even knowing they did this imo.
Bengals can still do this by letting Bates walk and cutting Mixon for a short term solution, will not give them extra picks but money to buy an OL.
I did butcher it again some. But the point sticks. You can’t compare KC’s 5 year run to Cincy’s 2 year run in essence. You can certainly look at why KC’s been successful in that 5 year window. They’ve foremost drafted well. You can see why Cincy has been successful. We hit in FA ( defense for sure) and the draft (offense mostly) even if we had early picks. They’ve got their first real crisis…replacing the best safety tandem in the entire league. Hopefully day 2 will go better and provide more insight.
Romo “ so impressed with Zac ...1 of the best in the NFL… they are just fundamentally sound. Taylor the best winning % in the Playoffs of current coaches. Joe Burrow” Zac is the best head coach in the NFL & that gives me a lot of confidence." Taylor led the Bengals to their first playoff win since 1990, ending the longest active drought in the four major North American sports, en and appeared in Super Bowl LVI, the first since 1988.
