Yea, we still have a good shot to make the playoffs, but the opportunity to win a SB only goes down from this year, as we get deeper in to Burrows contract. KC is 5-1. We’re 2 games back. And we still have to play the Steelers twice, ravens, browns, 49ers, bills, and Chiefs. We can’t really afford to lose any more games, unless we’re okay with the 3 seed at best, hosting the likes of Cleveland/Miami and then playing at Buffalo and at KC. And then SB vs 49ers/Eagles.
This year wasn’t about making the playoffs and seeing what we can do. It was about winning a SB. The chances of that our extremely low bc of our celebrated 3-3 record.
The chances of that were extremely low from the beginning. The AFC is LOADED, and anyone that thought we'd just cakewalk our way to the Super Bowl was delusional. There's just too many variables involved. We had as good a chance as any, and better than most. Doesn't mean it was ever going to be easy.
