The 2013 team was fantastic and had zero excuse to lose at home to a clearly inferior 9-7 team we'd already beaten on the road. We should've beaten the Steelers even with McCarron. Plus for me, it's all about the overall 0-7 record. You have to be doing something wrong to lose 7 straight playoff games. We should've lucked into a win by now.
Yep.
We've won the Division 4 times. That means wild card teams beat us at home 4 times.
While 73% of the NFL has been to a Super Bowl since we last have. This thread is an homage to the 'we need luck and a bunch of things to go right to win 1 playoff game.'
26+ years without a playoff win and the same management team in charge...and people will make excuses.
The sad fact is our core roster is aging. Guys like AJ Green are 29. He has maybe 3 elite years left. Guys like Eifert are always injured. Whitworth is gone. Peko. Reggie Nelson. Joseph. Hall. Sanu. Jones. etc.
Our roster peaked and now it's being ripped apart.
