I won't predict what may have happened but one interesting thing about Washington vs. Philadelphia that year; in week 4 Washington out gained them 337 yards to 221 but lost 36-13. In week 14 Philadelphia out gained Washington 416 yards to 176 but lost 15-13.

One thing that seems to be missing in this conversation is that the Packers of the 60s, The Steelers of the 70s, The 49ers of the 1980s and the Cowboys of the 1990s all hit bottom before they started their dynasties.

Saints scored 52 vs. Vikings in 2020 on all run TDs

Off the top of my head the 49ers scored 44 in the playoffs vs. the Giants in 1993 with all run TDs. The Giants scored 49 on all passes vs. Washington in 1962 as did the Eagles in 1954.

Since they just came to me I am sure there are plenty of others.

Hearing the words Tennessee Oilers together was big reason I stopped watching football for almost 3 years. The Baltimore Browns sounds horrible too. It's a weird deal all the way around.
