For me, it'd be a sign of progress towards a Super Bowl. That's consistently how I've always judged my team. One playoff win would be progress, so I'd be happy with that result. If we somehow win a SB, then followed it the next season with only a single playoff win, I'd be disappointed.

Ending a 25 year drought while at the same time advancing in the playoffs more than makes up for whatever "ugly" regular season record we may have chalked up. I'd take that any day over strutting into the postseason with a 12-4 record and a home playoff game only to once again lay a pile in front of the nation.
Unfortunately though like I said earlier, even if this 2016 squad makes the playoffs I do not see them advancing.
Well said. Not only would a playoff win be progress toward the ultimate goal, it'd end the hard-to-fathom 25 year streak.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
