"Fortunate" you don't want to have to depend on that term at the end of the yr. If you do then that means more often than not you will not go far into the playoffs. I get your point but Herm had that team going in the wrong direction by the end of that season.

True, but there have been situations with teams playing poorly at the end of the year and then look like world beaters in the playoffs. Don't ask me to provide an example because I can't think of one at this moment but I'm sure it happened

The Cardinals lost by 40 points in week 15, I think, during their superbowl year.
