- Coming off a 4 win season
- Franchise QB coming off of injury
- O-line is a work in progress at best
- So we compensated for these things by focusing on the run and not putting a big burden on the QB
- Young defense that is surprisingly dominant
- Undefeated vs Steelers
- We played the NFC North teams
Cedric Benson was an absolute BEAST that year! Was so much fun to watch him play. Remember that 45-10 lashing he and the offense gave the Bears that year? If that wasn't personal to Benson...
Unfortunately, as usual under Marvin the team didn't show up at the end of the year losing their last 3 of 4 and losing to the Jets in the playoffs. One thing you do have to say about Starvin' Marvin, he was consistent.
