Unfortunately, that does not often happen in the NFL. I don't have the numbers, but how many can you think of that start off with a losing record the first half of the season and then go on to the playoffs? I looked it up last night and since 1990 only 21 teams have started 1-3 and then went on to the post season. It seems like if you don't start off strong, you just sort of fall apart as the year goes on.
