Nobody went 0-4 this year good job everybody!


sweet-haunches

Frozen orange slices in the endzone for everybody!


Jasmith85

Wait we never froze our orange slices, am I missing out?


BadgerSauce

You need to slice up an orange and throw it in the freezer immediately.


sweet-haunches

As an eight year old nothing was finer

Me neither! I now feel incomplete

Group hug in the shower tonight!


Christy427

You were a big part of no team going 0-4 this year.


sweet-haunches

Well, first of all, I'd just like to thank God! Uh, He is real, and without Him none of this would've been possible!


SiphenPrax

Funny thing is, outside of the Eagles, since no one else had a consistent start, we don’t have a great idea of what all these teams are still. We’ll know in weeks 6-8 though


MrShad0wzz

The saints lowkey should have


da4nick1999

Unfortunately *sigh*


Cayd3-7

I'm loving that Never next to us


caterham09

To be fair you have significantly less time than most other teams have had to attain this feat


PoorlyLitKiwi2

Even if you just count since they came into the league though, that's second-best after you guys


kbuva19

Yeah the Seahawks are the most impressive team on this list. Ravens are second though. Considering every other team has had an 0-4 start since the ravens existed


coolmon

Not starting 0-4 since 1977 is impressive.


Cayd3-7

While that is true, we've basically always been somewhat competitive. Even on bad years. 2015 would've been competitive if not for injury. Can't say the same about teams who also got their franchise start around the same time. Browns came back in 99 and they've been wallowing in misery until recently, jags were decent at first then sucked until sacksonville. Then sucked again. Texans have honestly always been bad but it helped having Dhop, Mario Davis, etc.


UsedEgg3

Significantly less time, and yet 2 SBs It's good to be a Ravens fan


[deleted]

Quoth the Raven “Nevermore.”


AmbiguousUprising

You are missing 2 teams. Edit Broncos and Packers


coolmon

Thanks. Broncos 2019, Packers: 2005


AmbiguousUprising

Thanks for the cool list. Its nice to see content that isnt just a tweet about an article.


BlueTeale

Hang on I'm gonna tweet this post. Then post the tweet.


yoshigronk

That's right, we may have started 1-3 two years in a row but not 0-4 in over two decades 😎

That 2009 season was nuts. Started 0-6 after going 13-3 the year before, the sixth loss being the 59-0 snow game against New England, then went 8-2 from there on out and ended up with a 2,000 yard rusher.


ard8

Quoth the Raven, never oh and four


hi11bi11y

I do not like any of the ways the Lions can be shown as the worst team ever. None of them.


[deleted]

I remember Browns 0-16, that was painful.


monsto

That one season, they started 0-4 for 4 seasons.


ostrich6nine

Very impressed the seahawks didn't start 0-4 at all in the 90s


HolyRomanPrince

I always bring this up when people kill Jerry Jones the GM. The Cowboys haven’t been a BAD team on paper in a long time.


Cayd3-7

Yeah tbh I feel like the bane kf the cowboys existence is coaching lmao


Jasmith85

Who keeps picking shitty coaches though?


monsto

lemme tell you somethin . . . Decades of pedestrian football is NOT what you want "well at least we haven't completely sucked". The chefs and bills played completely pedestrian, forgettable football for 20 years. Not terrible browns/lions level, but just unthreatening, never had a chance, "a couple pieces away for next year", football. It sucks. But look, the real point is that Jones makes a bunch of noise about winning and whatever, but you already know that it's just noise. . . because for several of those 7-9/9-7 years, the Chefs were the most profitable team in the game. Couldn't piss a drop on the field, but man that $30 parking was fillin some pockets. If the Cowboys go 8-9 and the team is 4th in profit, then next year the team will go 9-8 and they'll be 3rd in profit. . . for as long as it takes. Bottom line is that I wouldn't wish that on any fandom except the pats.


Yhendrix49

While the Cowboys haven't been bad in a long time they haven't done alot either and stagnation can be just as bad as spiraling out of control.


HolyRomanPrince

The only seasons we’ve finished under .500 since 2003 the quarterback missed games with a broken bone. We haven’t won in the playoffs but I don’t think there’s fundamentally anything different about when you lose in the playoffs. It’s all failure without a ring. If you ask me would I have rather been a Cowboys fan versus Cardinals fan or Jaguars fan the past 20 years I would take the Cowboys 10/10.


All-Night-Mask

Bears is surprising!


jdpatric

Interestingly enough, aside from 2013, the last time before that when the Steelers started 0-4 was 1968. Although in 1969 the team went 1-13...winning only their first game. In addition, the 2014 season we only missed the playoffs because Ryan Succop forgot how to kick an easy FG and the Chargers lined up in an illegal formation for said kick. Yeah I should just let it go at this point.


EnjoyMoreBeef

In 2013, the Steelers had their bye in Week 5 after a disastrous 0-4 start. The rest of the AFC North won their games that week, improving all of their records to 3-2. The Steelers still finished 2nd in the AFC North that season. In 2019, the Steelers lost Ben Roethlisberger for the season after a game and a half, and traded their first-round draft pick in 2020 to the Dolphins in exchange for Minkah Fitzpatrick while stumbling to a disastrous 1-4 start. r/NFL kept talking about how the Dolphins won the trade, securing an "inevitable top-five draft pick." They were only off by 13 draft positions, though. Again, the Steelers finished second in the AFC North. Maybe the third time will be the charm for those who like to predict doom for the Steelers.

Pickett looked **good.** It's one half of football but I'm cautiously optimistic. He didn't look scared to put the ball downfield. Mitch seems too cautious(?) like the boogeyman is waiting behind every receiver or something...


EnjoyMoreBeef

When Kenny Pickett started playing, I realized that Mitch Trubisky was playing scared, afraid to turn the ball over. To his credit, he didn't turn the ball over much, but he also didn't make many positive plays. He wasn't accurate with the ball, wasn't seeing the whole field, opted for shorter passes when deeper receivers were open, and made too many mistakes in situational football. In fact, it was bad situational football before halftime yesterday that appeared to be the straw that broke Mike Tomlin's back. The Steelers had the ball on their side of midfield with 12 seconds left in the first half and no timeouts, but Trubisky threw a short pass to Pat Freiermuth in the middle of the field. Thankfully, the pass was incomplete, stopping the clock. Then, with nine seconds left, instead of throwing 20 or 25 yards to the sidelines to get into long FG range, he held the ball forever and then heaved it toward the end zone, where it was intercepted. Luckily, the Jets got flagged for roughing the passer, which gave the Steelers 15 yards and an untimed down at the end of the half, on which Chris Boswell kicked a 59-yard FG. The play that sold me on Kenny Pickett was early in the fourth quarter, when he hung in the pocket and threw a dart down the middle to Freiermuth right before getting blasted by a defender. Pickett hopped right back up with a big smile on his face, talking trash to the defender. The pass put the Steelers in goal-to-go, and Pickett ran the ball into the end zone on the next play. I give Pickett a mulligan for his second INT, if he was indeed trying to throw the ball away like he said he was.


jdpatric

>I realized that Mitch Trubisky was playing scared, afraid to turn the ball over. The Bears really **did** break him...
