that 2006 8-8 team had the best circumstances.
We played an easy schedule.
We played more 3rd string qb's that I ever remember playing in one season
After going 5-8, we finished the season playing 3 teams out of the race, playing the game like a preseason game, subbing in.
We had no significant injuries to the star players. Most of them played all 16 games.
We had Kurt Warner (Cardinals) and Brett Farve fumble games away to the Rams in the 4th quarter when it appeared all but over.
It was a season that was there for a 12-4 season and a missed opportunity.
Big difference versus the 2004 8-8 team that had to fight through a ton of adversity, playing street free agents on the offensive line, playing games with Arlene Harris and Chandler at RB and QB and having to defeat the Jets fighting for a playoff spot in the final week of the season.
Given all of that, 8-8 is 8-8 and something Fisher hasn't seen nor the guys before Fisher.
