I know as a fan of any nfl team your ultimate hope is a super bowl

But why is it some fans can't stand the idea of rebuilding to the point where they create delusions around their team. For example I'm a jets fan and I hear a lot of "fans" talking about this season as if it was a failure. Saying the jets were playoff bound as much as it pains me to say the jets weren't talented enough to make a playoff push. The fact that the team has a chance after the final game to finish 8-8 while beating some fairly decent teams is an accomplishment considering there was a distinct lack of offensive talent and starting a qb who didn't play a pro offense. Anyway rant over

and the ones at the very bottom should be thinking hard about their draft picks.

I grew up in Wisconsin where we all cheered for the Packers, win or lose. We have a shot today at the division which I'm not sure we really earned with our QB out, but he will play today so we'll see. We had a lot of injuries so I'm not surprised at how the season turned out for us. I always remember that we got through the 70s so we can get through whatever they throw at us now.
