When I saw the title to this thread the seahawks was the first team that came to mind. Mixed in with the Schaub debacle they should have had a three game losing streak at that point in the season.

I tell you what pisses me off about luck in the NFL, we see it every year from some team if not more than 1.

That is you got a schedule of facing a bunch of consistently bad teams and then you need luck and miracles to beat them and you do so a majority of the season to inflate your record.

Falcons last year was that team, this year.......its Seattle.

Well the schedules are generated far in advance, not like they know which teams will be horrible.

Just look at the Falcons this year, no one expected them to be this bad

Yeah but they not set into a particular order until the offseason of that year.

It matters alot of how many home games you got early or late in the season, who you face from 1 week to the next and what not. Last years Falcon team was home, away, home, away all season.
