Question for you historians..

I was trying to think of the last time we had a winning streak this long. Was it when we opened the season 5-0 or was it 6-0?

I believe it was '91 or '92 when we opened with 6 or 7 straight. We did win 4 in a row to close out 2004...remember that? just missed the playoffs because the rams beat the jets. I think the longest winning streak in team history is 9...that was during the 12-3 season in '87.

ohh yeah i remember when the rams beat the jets and got into the playoffs instead of us. i complained for months, im pretty damn sure we had the same record and we beat them head to head that year, yet they made it and we didnt. i think so anyway.

I think...............

Well we were 8-8 with Vikings and Rams.
So 3 team tie-breaker:

No division tie-breaker
No head to head sweep (Vikings did not play Rams)
Conference record -> Rams wins 7 to Vikings 5 & Saints 5

To 2 team tie-breaker:

Vikings beat Saints in regular season
