I blame York and parage, and also the fans who are content with mediocrity.
Blame yourself for not understanding how special and unusual the Montana-Young era was. Then realize than very few fanbases got to see their team win as much as we did. It's not easy, even when you have a great team, there's always luck and pure chance involved. A lot that is out of control of anyone directly involved plays into winning it all. The best you can expect is to be in the handful of teams in the mix.
Not buying it. Great organizations with great ownership stay great. Bad organizations with bad ownership stay bad. If it were based on luck and pure chance, the Detroit lions would have at some point reached the superbowl on odds alone. Its not luck amd pure chance the niners were a dynasty for 15 years. It's not a coincidence the warriors turned great once ownership changed. It was almost immediate.
The lack of championships over the last 27 years start with ownership and their hiding behind Mr moneyball Marathe
