These things run in cycles. Hell, prior to Reid showing up and saving the franchise... in the 15 years before Reid, KC had 5 winning seasons.

Having some accomplishments doesn't mean that the organization consistently makes good decisions.
I'm sure you've noticed plenty of Denver fans bashing the Seattle organization, despite the fact that they've been consistent winners for years.
To me, a winning culture means that you can win relatively consistently without an all-time great QB. Denver has won very little throughout history without one. They also drafted neither and have never drafted a good QB.
As for KC fans, the difference is that they weren't boasting about a winning culture then. They were bitter and self-deprecating.
