I think that up to about 3 years ago there were plenty of teams and fanbases that would've looked at the Bengals approach and say "they're doing something right in order to make the playoffs 5 straight seasons", but now we're all supposed to pretend like that doesn't mean anything because they never won one of those games. A lot of fanbases (outside of a handful of teams) would've been very happy to have that level of success.
