The Chiefs, without Mahomes, are about 35 games OVER .500.
The Broncos were an irrelevant nothing of a franchise until Elway showed up and willed them to relevance. Then he left and they went back to being an afterthought until Manning stopped over. Now they're irrelevant again.
And they'll remain that way. Because Bo Nix ain't the answer to any question worth asking. They had him once before - his name was Brian Griese. They'll long for the days of .500 football that Griese brought them.

That's very clever. If you take away the most successful seasons, Denver isn't very successful.
But I think you know that, before the Mahomes years, you would have traded any number of ten win seasons for one chamionship.
