Now you guys are looking like the only 6-0 team to start a season to miss, choke, fumble away , ( you get the idea) a playoff spot. Wow ! Congrats on that

    what can i say, we do things in a big way. . . even choking, i guess. . .


    hey, at least we're not happy to settle for mediocrity like the sparklers. . .

    Check your facts.

    There's been a team before to start 6-0 and not make the playoffs. We won't be setting any records if we miss the playoffs.

    Oh .. here it is ... this is much better....

    One year after the Broncos became the first NFL team to blow a three-game division lead with three to play, they can write another chapter in the league annals by becoming the first to start a 16-game season 6-0 and not finish with a winning record.

    Dude, you better hope we don't make the playoffs. Because, if we do, there is
    a chance we will meet again, in your house.

    And you have proven the last couple years you cannot beat us in your house.

    keep rubbin' sanluis-- it'll get you in shape for rubbing your head after you guys choke in the playoffs once again. . .






    you know why people call your team the sparklers?

    because no matter how bright they burn, they always fizzle out at the end. . . .

    We won't even be the first team since 1990 to do this if we do miss the playoffs. Here's an excerpt from an article on biggest collapses since 1990.

    2) 2003 Vikings. The only team since 1990 to start 6-0 and miss the playoffs, the Viking collapse was unprecedented and embarrassing on multiple levels. After starting 6-0, the Vikings allowed over 28 points in each of their next four games, all losses. Before the season was over, Minnesota would lose to the four worst teams in the league — the Giants, Chargers, Raiders and Cardinals. The loss in Arizona works well as a metaphor for the season. At 9-6 entering the last week, the Vikings went to Arizona to face the Cardinals, a team that had the #1 pick in the draft locked up with another loss. Minnesota led, 17-6, with two minutes left. On 4th-and-2 from the Viking 2-yard line, Josh McCown threw a touchdown pass to Steve Bush. With just one timeout and under two minutes remaining, the Cardinals had to try an onside kick. Of course, Damien Anderson recovered it, and the Cardinals were alive and down by four points. After consecutive sacks by the Vikings, the Cardinals faced a 4th-and-25 from the 28 yard-line. On the last play of the game, McCown threw the game-winning touchdown to Nate Poole, ending Minnesota’s season. The Cardinals dropped to No. 3 in the draft, losing out on the Eli Manning sweepstakes but gaining Larry Fitzgerald.

    Smack doesn't work unless your facts are correct. 2003 was just 6 years ago. . . :duh:

    BTW, the 1967 Baltimore Colts missed the playoffs after starting 11-0-2, and then losing their 14th game. Not exactly a "collapse" but pretty notable if someone's trying to make hay about a 6-0 team missing the playoffs 10 games later.

    please see post # 36 of this thread. It already addresses your point.

    Denver can write another chapter in the league annals by becoming the first to start a 16-game season 6-0 and not finish with a winning record.

    That depends on what we do this weekend, Sanluis. Beat the Chefs in our house and we end up 9-7. Last I heard, that was a "winning record". The worst we can possibly go is .500 and that's not a losing record, no matter how you spin it.

    That is very true Midnight but it isn't a winning record either
