In my opinion, New England is not yet a storied franchise, or at least not as storied as the Broncos, Cowboys, Steelers and Packers. The Patriots have just had a good run with a single, once-in-a-generation QB. Before Brady, New England was in two Super Bowls and got badly beaten in both of them. If they make a Super Bowl in the first 15 years after Brady, then I might come around to thinking of them in the same sentence as the other teams.
The Chiefs are storied, as well, but in a different way. For the Chiefs, the story is losing in the playoffs and the franchise and their fans tolerating it.
