Jags 4-9
Eagles 6-7
Vikings 6-6-1
It's hard to even get back to the playoffs after being in the conference championships, unless you're NE.
Sustained excellence is rare and amazing.
The last time that the Patriots kicked off a football game and were out of contention for the Super Bowl, Bill Clinton was president. The date was December 24, 2000. 18 YEARS! Not one game in his career as a starter, for Brady. They did miss the playoffs twice, in 2002 and 2008, and both times they were eliminated only after they WON their last game and they tied for best division record, but each time they lost a tiebreaker (to the 2002 Jets, 2008 Dolphins) based upon games played later.
We shall never see such a dynasty again. Enjoy it!
