Let me give you a comparison. Both of us are on a pretty good run of losing the last game of the year. And that is a much bigger heartbreak for you than for us.
Why? Even the Patriots don’t win it all every year. And when they don't, do you think they would wish they could swap histories with you so they could feel better? (Spoiler alert: it sure as hell wouldn't)
In my opinion, when you make the playoffs as often as both of our teams have in the past decade, the length of the drought determines the intensity of both the elation when you win it all and the disappointment when you don't. You all have a much longer steak of 'Maybe next year' than we do. And the pain of that might fade when you are a perennial loser, but except for the last few years, you guys have been contenders pretty consistently for a while now.
