The heroes win in shows that aren't as dark as Supernatural can get. For darker shows you can never be sure. They won in Game of Thrones, but lost in Spartacus. Sam and Dean have beaten just about every monster of the week and even most of the main villains up until now, because if they lost the story would be over, and even when they died they can't stay dead as long as the show's going on. But it's in its final season now so anything can happen in the final, and the writers are sure to do a grand conclusion for their torture fetish for Sam and Dean.

And, there's one thing we seem to have forgotten. Billie said there was only ONE way this could end well for the world. For Dean to imprison himself and Michael inside that box. That is not what happened. Michael got free of Dean, Jack sacrificed his soul to kill him, eventually leading Sam and Dean to betray and try to imprison Jack, leading God to intervene and reveal his grand scheme, and we know the rest. This was not the 1 in 14,000,605. It was one of the others where they lose.
