But since the start of this century, 13 AFC and 13 NFC teams have made it to the conference championship game.
And all of the 13 NFC teams have done it twice
9 of the NFC teams have been in the conference title game three times (or more).
So what, any of these negative cry babies would find a negative narrative no matter what happens.

So that's the standard you want us to aim for?

Heck if we were one of those teams people wouldn't say a thing. But I thought we were something like the Yankees of football. Successful and hated by everyone else? So who cares about those 12 teams?
Hell, I'm just enjoying it. Hard to not enjoy the exciting season that we just had after the terrible one the year before. It didn't end well, but we did have a good season.

Just stating a fact - the vast majority of NFL teams have put together at least one season to make it to that round over the last two decades. Several had done it multiple times - with different GMs, HCs, and QBs.

The Bengals win will make 27 teams that will have played in a conference championship game since the last time we were there. Thats 84% of the league. that is sickening.
What is sickening is that people get sick by this......there is a real world out there, enjoy it.

Oh the curtains....you mean the curtains Jerry allowed closed during the draft for TV purposes but not while his team played and got blinded trying to catch a pigskin because it messed up the look of is stadium? That Jerry is so crafty!
Thales are the ones! Attention to detail for winning

More than one third of the teams have never won 1 Super Bowl. Just stating a fact.

More than Dak? Yes. But this playoff drought spans back 26 years. Even Troy Aikman couldn't get it done the last five years of his career and Romo had ten years to do something about it.

Without sounding like a Prescott apologizer, let's not pretend this problem started with him. It's been going on since he was 3 years old.

I don't care about Romo because he is a bum QB too, but let's not throw a 3 time Super Bowl Champion under the bus to protect Dak, okay?

No, I wasn't doing that. In reference to Aikman, I was pointing out the Cowboys' title drought goes back that far. To be honest I was throwing Jerry Jones under the bus because he has been the one constant since all this started in 1996.

Yes, Jerry is the biggest issue for any of this. He is a the problem.

Not concerned with those franchises don't have an NFL title (although I will sincerely congratulate their fans. etc. when their team finally wins it all).
Just reiterating that 80% of the league's teams put it together for at least one season since 2000 to play for the conference championship - and that a good number of them - especially in the NFC - have made that appearance multiple times over the last decade.

Good/average QB play can get you to the play-offs but unless the rest of the team is championship caliber, you need more from your QB in the post-season. Just ask Ryan Tannehill in crunch time.

Garappolo has been lighting it up.

The same cry babies would cry if the Cowboys lost in the NFC championship. Just watch if that happens next year.
