The Super Bowl Curse

[jramsey4]

I just realized that yet another Super Bowl loser failed to make the playoffs the year after the loss. I mean the Pat's went 11-5 and still are going to watch the postseason on the couch if that doesn't lend hand to the myth I don't know what can. I mean 18-1 last season with one of the most prolific offence in history to missing the playoffs.

Totally forgot about that. Wow

Tom Brady potentially ending his career probably had something to do with that.

Well the year after our Super Bowl loss we had an almost laughable amount of injuries that probably had something to do with our 7-9 finish.

yep. 17 starters sat the bench in '04. If that's not a record, it's close.

The year after the Seahawks lost the Super Bowl to the Steelers they won the NFC West and made it back to the playoffs.

That nearly doesn't count because the NFC West is such a garbage division.
