Also, I am a fan. And I like winning more than losing.
So Jon's framing of "so you're saying there's a chance" has some appeal. The offseason, the early season, the Wild Card chase are more fun if there's a chance. Yeah, at some point we'll have to beat Burrow or Mahomes, but the ball bounces weird, and it's one game--not trying to beat Jordan over a 7 game series.
I don't think I'd like to spend 10 years winning 5 or less games just to happen to eventually draft Trevor Lawrence. And then . . . . maybe? Probably?
I think I'd prefer a decade of generally meaningful football going to the playoffs more often than not even if we are never on the preseason short list of likely-to-win-the-Super-Bowl.
