There's probably something to Cowher and Martz getting outcoached in the playoffs there. By run of the mill, I mean "fringe playoff team for most of the regular season."

Of course, you win your division, you get to the playoffs, but I don't think that if it happened a year later (after the divisional reorganization) that they would have had a bye in the playoffs, and without that bye week, there's more or less zero chance of that team coming out of the AFC.

What they started, of course, was the launching pad of more than a couple hall of fame careers, and the very genesis of one of the best 5 year runs in NFL history under Brady, but I think that team was more in the right place at the right time than anything else.

Though I want to extend full credit for playing THE perfect game against the Rams, much like the Giants played THE perfect game against the Pats 6 years later.
