I may be misinterpreting the question, but... no — I can't fathom a way winning an NFL title could be considered a disappointment.

Had a friend point this out to me just a couple days ago. Missed it if it was ever linked on this site. Good read. Fade, you nailed it!The 30 for 30 will be called "The Dynasty that Never Was" of course it was a disappointment.
are you sure Russell Wilson is in the same club with Manning, Brees and Rodgers?Peyton Manning in Indy.
Drew Brees in New Orleans.
Aaron Rodgers in Green Bay.
Some of the greatest QB's in NFL history with long tenures on very good teams "only" won 1 Super Bowl with those teams.
What this tells me is that it's a hell of a lot harder to win championships than most fans realize or are willing to admit. Not only do you have to have a very good team, you also have to have a lot of things go your way.
It took damn near a miracle against Green Bay in the NFCCG for us to even get back to the Super Bowl the year after we won it all.
So no, I don't consider 1 championship with Wilson a disappointment. Quite the opposite actually. I feel like we are awfully fortunate to even have that 1.
a tier down for sureare you sure Russell Wilson is in the same club with Manning, Brees and Rodgers?
I am a Russell Wilson homer, but I don't think Russ belong in that exclusive club. Not yet anyways.a tier down for sure
I always thought we should have instructed our DBs to tackle Falcons WRs in the area where it's a 5-yard holding 3 plays in a row, and then the clock runs out with Falcons not in FG range. Maybe that would be an interesting thread to get feedback on, would that have worked, or are there flaws that would make it fail, e.g., flag would be also thrown for Unsportsmanlike Conduct on each play this was done.should have in 2012 but we could not hold the lead with only 20 seconds to go.
Yup, Pete just called for Pass, Bevell called brain-dead play on so many levels, then Bevell blamed Lockette instead of taking responsibility. Pete should have canned him over that the week after, for throwing Lockette under the bus.It was really Bevell’s choice but Pete, Russ, and Lockette wore it. Bevell blamed everyone else.
Don't agree. You cant predict or guarantee that Lynch would have scored. The box was stacked and Lynch had been stopped many many times with less than 1 yard that year.Nope!
However, it would have been 2 if they'd given the ball to Lynch in SB 49 to close it out.
The 30 for 30 will be called "The Dynasty that Never Was" of course it was a disappointment.
Russ could've changed the play and called a run for Lynch. Peyton would've, that's what separates those 2.Yes. Russ threw it but Pete called it.
Grateful but, overall characterized as a disappointment.
