The 2021 Rams were good enough to compete with Jared Goff at QB. They were going from divisional round team to Super Bowl. They weren’t going from worst in the division and constant mediocrity to a Super Bowl. Huge difference in rosters, and most importantly, coaching staff.
The 2020 Bucs had a better roster than Denver and added a significantly better QB than Wilson. In a significantly easier division and with an easier road to winning. Also with a huge difference in coaching staff compared to Denver. They were a Brady away from winning, not a Wilson.
The Bengals were a fluky team that thrived off of an insanely injured and poor division and won in the playoffs because they got Derek Carr in round 1 and merely existed in the next 2 rounds while the teams they played (KC included) handed them a win on a silver platter. I guess Denver could go with the fluky route?
