While it opens us fans to mocking and criticism for celebrating our “Super Bowl” in the victory over the Chiefs, it really can be and is a very important moment.
Yes, you could say, “Look at the last 17 games - big deal, you’re 1-16 and we own you”. Ok.
But let’s say that this win is the beginning of more victories over the Chiefs. What will change is not that we are 2-16, 3-16, 4-16, etc. The headline will begin to shift that the Chiefs have lost the last 2, 3, 4, etc. games to the Broncos.
Now, let’s just hope that we can string together those victories and not make this post age like fine milk.
There was a long long time ago when the Chiefs and Raiders dominated us year after year. Then we started winning 1, 2, 3 games and eventually we were the dominant power in the division. These things go in cycles.
