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.
It just feels like this team is finally moving forward for the first time since PFM. Russ is looking like the QB we traded for, it’s still hard to watch because we have Manning to compare him to. He isn’t going to be that, nobody will.
