tennesseeboy Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 2004...Drew Bledsoe, Eric Molds, Lee Evans, Willis McGahee, Travis Henry...it is perhaps the highest point differential of any team to ever not make the playoffs. after an 0-4 start they blew through the season and then lost to Pittsburgh's third string players in the final game.

Mark Long Beach Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 2004...Drew Bledsoe, Eric Molds, Lee Evans, Willis McGahee, Travis Henry...it is perhaps the highest point differential of any team to ever not make the playoffs. after an 0-4 start they blew through the season and then lost to Pittsburgh's third string players in the final game. Of course Pittsburgh WAS the AFC team with best team finishing 15-1 and we found out that their backups were pretty good too, led by rookie fast Willie Parker who seized the starting role for them for the next few years (1200, 1500 & 1300 yards) setting numerous rushing records for them before injuries took him down. Oh and they were superbowl champs the next year. So while it sounds horrible about how we blew the season against 3rd stringers, they were a much better team, period. Don't get me wrong, I was as PO'd as anyone, but hind-site clearly shows how much better Pittsburgh was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dibs Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 Cause and effect. Winning more games than you lose tends to lead to a bigger point differential. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KDIGGZ Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 So unless we start scoring more than 24 points or holding opposing teams to less than 20 then we have no shot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
