As remarkable as they were, believe it or not, the team finished 7-7!

I forget the year but the Philly Eagles defense in the mid 80s coached by buddy ryan... there was a year or two they were number 1 against the pass and the run and their offense was bad so the defense was on the field a lot... Golic/White/Simmons maybe Jerome Brown as still alive on the line...seth joyner. eric allen etc.....they crushed warren moon when Moon was set to break Marino's yardage record at the time..
also killed like 3 redskin qbs in one game and put them in body bags.. and brian mitchell had to be the qb
