We don't even have some distant memory to point to and say, "Look, we did it once and we can do it again!" We appear to have a strong team, but that clearly isn't enough. We have had strong teams in the past. To win the SB you have to have a strong team who plays well during the season and then raises their level of play in the playoffs, not to mention the luck to stay relatively healthy.
We've been to the playoffs 4 years in a row. Another consecutive appearance is enough of a daunting task for this team, let alone the seemingly insurmountable obstacle of winning a playoff game, let alone 3 (with a bye) or 4 (most likely if they even get there).
Hmmm. That sums it up pretty well right there.
