What we don't do, though, is discount your success. You will find comments like, "These refs are just happy they could chip in and help the Chiefs get the W." But most of that is tongue-in-cheek. Your team is good. Your QB is historically great. Your coach is creative and smart. Sucks being in the division with all of that, but it is what it is.
Check out posts in this thread in the last few pages, though. The Broncos have never won without cheating. 2015 was the NFL intervening to get Peyton a ring, and the Broncos had no business even being in the conversation, otherwise. And on, and on. Honestly, if I was a Chiefs fan, I would be calling out those fans. Because it's embarrassing. it makes you all look petty, small, and a bit nuts. As the Bengals guy has said a few times, in many Chief's fans minds, nothing noteworthy has ever been legitimately accomplished by non-Chiefs player or teams. That kind of stuff just makes you all look like you have little-brother, short-man syndrome.
But to be clear, this is directed at about seven or eight in this thread - the circle jerkers. The reason I post on Chiefs Planet is that I really genuinely like many ChiefsPlanet posters. And having spoken on and offline to them over the years, I consider them to be about as good of friends as one can have in a situation like this,.

Some things are inarguable.
It is inarguable that the Broncos cheated in the '97 playoff game against the Chiefs.
It is inarguable that the Broncos cheated by circumventing the salary cap in their '98 Super Bowl year.
When Chiefs fans say that you cheated for those championships, there is incontrovertible evidence that those claims are true.
I don't believe that Bronco fans would be quiet about it if the situation was reversed. For years we heard it from Bronco fans about how they had more championships than the Chiefs and now the Chiefs have more, so I don't believe that Bronco fans would remain quiet if the Chiefs had one or more championships tainted by cheating.
