Maybe the first couple of years for that "novelty" factor, but when that wears off, it better be year 3 or 4 of that "5 straight seasons of 12-4" to keep the fan base.

Possibly not the most remembered but in their first year, 1960, they were called the Los Angeles Chargers and played at the Coliseum. They went 10-4 and moved to SD the following season.
