What Happened to the Last Undefeated Teams since 2000? 

A 41-0 Conference Championship loss is exactly what I would expect from a season the Vikings started off undefeated in.

The Colts started 14-0 and went 14-2. The Saints started 13-0 and went 13-3. Lost a total of 5 games to end the regular season and played each other in the Super Bowl.

I find it crazy that Jerry Rice had 1k receiving yards in his late 30s

Giants knocking off the Pats and creating 18-1 will never not be legendary

The only undefeated season that matters... is the postseason.

"Did you know the Chiefs started 9-0 in 2003?" As a Chiefs fan since the 80s, yes, I remember it well. We had a lot of great seasons that we choked away in the playoffs. What I did NOT remember, though, was that sick ass block by Trent Green. Hot damn!

Ugh, 2016 was rough. We got crushed in Philly after the bye week and it all went downhill from there.

That 11-0 record from my Steelers was a fluke. If our offense was more well balanced, maybe they could’ve been more dominant in December. I wonder who will be the first team to beat the Eagles this season. I don’t think they’re gonna loose to either the Texans or Commanders. However, from Week 11 and beyond who knows 👀

being at super bowl 42 was amazing and it was glorious to see the perfect season to become 18-1

Brady and the Pats 21 game winning streak over 2 seasons back in the 2000's was insane

2015 had the following; Patriots start 10-0 Bengals start 8-0 Broncos start 7-0 Panthers start 15-0 Packers start 6-0 Falcons start 5-0

So now you know how difficult it is to go undefeated, one team can say they’re perfect, the ‘72 Dolphins. And yes, there’s been teams that have come close in the NFL, but you need a lot of good and fortunate things to happen to your team to make it happen.

So the '06 Colts are the only SB champions. Though a few crashed and burnt altogether, it's amazing how many of these teams ended up making the SB then losing.

The 2011 Giants playoff run was legendary

Now we need a What Happened to the Last Team to get a Win since 2000. Perhaps include who they drafted the next season.

Peyton manning, the regular season god.

I will NEVER forget Cam's Panthers. Not even my team but was incredible to watch

Eagles gonna go 17-0 and lose in the divisional

These videos are amazing. Thank you for this good job. NFL throwback makes us travel through time ;)

This is why, as an Eagles fan, I'm excited by NOT delusional about the prospect of going undefeated in the season. 2017, we lost the second game of the season and won the Super Bowl. In 2004, we got to 7-0, got the Super Bowl but lost. Unblemished records are cool and could go down as legendary, but gaining that winning momentum and having the squad click when going into late November and December has always been the key to a Lombardi trophy.

That panthers season was insane and will always be the best season of my life

You left out the Saints' 13-0 record in 2009, before losing their last three games, including an improbable overtime loss to a 2-14 Tampa Bay team. At 13-3, they beat the Colts in SB XLIV.

Since Philly is 7-0 for the first time since that 04 super bowl run (probably the first one I remember watching, of what I remember watching as a kid) let’s hope the Eagles make it there again but this time get a ring. I remember being so devastated as a 7 year old kid who loved (and still does love) his Eagles when I found out they lost that super bowl

Y’all be on point with the uploads

The 5-0 start by the Vikings was such a fluke, but the analysis doesn’t do it justice. That defense wasn’t just top 10. They were unstoppable despite having no OL or running game on the other side to give them rest. They saved the first five games with key turnovers, and Bradford was playing lights out. The OL was bad enough at the start of the year (Matt Kalil, Alex Boone and friends sucked) but then we were seeing the third string backups by midseason. Everyone says they have the worst OL, but watch a Vikings game from after week 5 and tell me you’ve seen a worse OL. There seemed to pressure instantly every play, without opposing teams blitzing anyone. TJ Clemmings one of the worst LTs I’ve ever seen (couldn’t stop anyone for a second, called for holding and false starts all the time). Matt Asiata totally shit starting RB (couldn’t get more than 3 yards on a run and out of the league soon after). Bradford had like a half second to throw most plays, to the point they had to scheme their offense around a useless line and he broke the completion percentage record with all the quick dumpoffs. The defense was still great but they couldn’t singlehandedly win games anymore and stopped getting as many turnovers as the first five weeks. Also lost our head coach for a game due to eye surgery. All around mess and it absolutely sucked watching it lol

they should have shown the first snap of the 2020 Wild Card game between the Browns and the Steelers. Once that snap went over Big Ben's head, every Yinzer (UrinatingTree included) were in for a loooooong game

Thanks NFL Throwback. I'm very hopeful for my Eagles Heading into the Playoffs now😂🦅

Another impressive hidden gem from this channel. 👍

This video shows how, really, if you aren't able to make a statement in the playoffs/super bowl, a team ending up as the final undefeated team in the league can sometimes make no difference. I had no idea the Titans started 10-0 in 2008 for example, and the reason why I wasn't aware was purely because they didn't make the mark they *should have* and honestly that's just kind of depressing lol

Almost every undefeated teams season ended to one of the following: - The Giant Killers - Colts and/or Peyton Manning - Lost to the eventual Super Bowl Champions - Lost in the Super Bowl

Giants making Patriots 18-1 is a classic upsetting knockoff!

I absolutely love videos like this. No notes.

That 2011 Packers team had one of the best offensive seasons ever. It was that defense on the other hand that was atrocious.

Hell of a video, good job!

Great Video 📸 NFL Throwback 🏈 You Got The Greatest Football 🏈 Games Of All Time.

You forgot the close call the 07 Pats had in week 17 against the Giants. Game ended 35-38

The 2015 Panthers was truly a cultural phenomenon. You had to be there when they was unbeaten.

I love that the Bengals defeat of the 9-0 Chiefs was preceded by Chad Johnson's guarantee.

People don’t realize how good the 2005 colts were. They were better than their 06 Super Bowl team. They were the best defense and best offense. All around the board. It was crazy. They were pulling Peyton in the middle of the 3rd quarter in half their games.

Video Idea: Most iconic conference championship matchups. Examples: Favre-Brees ‘09, Brady-Mahomes ‘18, Brady-Manning ‘06, Aikman-Young early 90’s.

As a Bostonian…2007 was rough as a pats fan. My submarine returned from deployment in November. We had been deployed for 6 months. My Celtics got the “big 3” together My bruins found a new coach My Red Sox were KILLING everyone Then, my patriots were on a fuckin rampage. Super bowl 42 was heartbreaking. What made it worse?!?! I was stationed in Hawaii, and my barracks at Pearl Harbor is viewable from aloha stadium where the pro bow was played. Signs were everywhere that said “congrats champion NY Giants” that whole week was a Fuckin hangover from the game to the pro bowl game

Pretty wild how the '06 Colts are (through the '22 season) the only final unbeaten team to win it all. Momentum is extremely underrated!

Great video!

Forgot to mention how the steelers played 3 games in I think 13 days and the WFT game was the 3rd of that

Wait, he mentions the 2009 saints defeating the colts but no word of their season which was 13-0 until Dallas?

the (then) Colts radio announcer's shout at 13:55 almost took me out lol

7:05 forgot to the mention that was when OWens started beefing with Mcnab. Loved watching that game on Halloween

Man best part of those clips were the announcers i remember how fun games used to be bring back the 2000s enthusiasm

The last time I was this early the Steelers were 11-0 😂😂😂

As a life long chiefs fan who got to watch two decades of post season choke I am so glad that Manning is retired. I’m also aware Mahomes is doing the exact same thing to half the league. But that’s just how it is, enjoy it while it lasts.

Cool video!

Awesome video

12:30 fun fact: that footage of CJ2k isn't sped up.

Great narrating yet again.

Nice video. Great decision by Caldwell!

I remember when I cared about football. It was back when they tackled hard and there weren't 15 flags during the 4 hour games with 2 hours of ads.

Interesting how many of these undefeated runs ended in huge, multi-score defeats.

So you're telling me... in 22 years, there's only been ONE team to win the Super Bowl when they were the last undefeated team that year?

That 2012 playoff game between the Seahawks and the Falcons was electric. Wish we could have gotten the job done against the Niners too/

It’s amazing how many years involve the Chiefs. 3 teams this century, surprisingly none with Mahomes under center. They ruined Green Bay’s perfect record, and defeated the once perfect 49ers in the Super Bowl

What’s really crazy to me about the 2004 Eagles is that even though they were that year’s last undefeated team, won 13 games and were the top team in the NFC, the Steelers and Patriots both had better records than them and each looked like a far superior team both times they played Philly that season.

our defense was so good😭 im a steelers fan btw

This video brought us some painful memories, all my Packers had to do was beat the Giants at home, and we shit the bed. Again. At home. Against the Giants. Too many Super Bowl opportunities wasted by either bad defense, an off day for the offense, or our special teams rearing it’s ugly head. Pain.

Update: 2022: Philadelphia started 8-0 before being upset by the Washington Commanders at home. They still finished at 14-3 and played the Chiefs in Super Bowl 57 before losing 38-35.

I wish there more undefeated teams throughout the season

You guys also forgot to mention that the 2019 Patriots started 8-0

Update 2023: The Philadelphia Eagles and San Francisco 49ers went 5-0 to start the year after facing off in last season's NFC Championship Game, but they both lost to backup quarterbacks on the road in Week 6. The Eagles went 10-1 before a major collapse that saw them go just 1-7, including a wild card loss to Tampa. The 49ers finished 12-5 with home field and escape with victories against Green Bay and Detroit as they head to Super Bowl 58 against the Chiefs.

this was a good video.

Thanks football

Commanders did it again. This time to the team on the other side of Pennsylvania

19:17 Dexter mccluster , we went to the same high school together when he played running back

I'm a die hard Packers fan and just thinking about the dynasty they could have been just kills me. Every season after sb xlv just seemed like we been cursed.

The 2014 bengals lost their first game to the Patriots. It was obviously the “Onto Cincinnati” game. In 2013 the patriots started off 4-0 and long their first game to the bengals so it was nice revenge for the Patriots.

You forgot that the Saints also started 13-0 in 2009

until super bowl 51, that nfc championship game against the 49ers was my greatest pain as a Falcons fan (at that point it was the biggest blown lead in playoff history *cries*)

25:29 really clever producing, cutting to the same play from a different angle

I noticed that the New York football 🏈 GIANTS are handing out a lot of upsets on this list 😆 🤣 let's goo G-MEN 💪

Aaron Rodgers is overrated his whole career is winning one Super Bowl and then winning games in Green Bay but his career record on the road as of November 2 2022 is 62 wins and 60 losses.

Km is a great place to work with and I am bummed to be missing the big time

interesting video. thanks

Hi🙂

hi

It’s crazy looking back at 2015 Cam.

When the Lions were at 16-0 life was good. Then I woke up to 0-16. They just kept setting the losing records that they themselves had set. In a nut shell, they had a perfect season. And kept breaking so many records.

I swear KTO & NFL Throwback watch each others videos and make one on said videos subject or they publish a video on the same topic on the same day

No wait and see make a video!

Da Bears DTs doing their best Keystone Kops impersonation vs. the Vikes. And just like in every NFL historic highlight, some team blanked the Lions.

I was at that Colts Chargers game in 2005. Then a few weeks later they lost the heartbreaker to Pittsburgh. 😢

I really miss those LA Rams uniforms from 2018. They used to look so much cleaner.

The Packers receiving core in that 2011 Divisional vs New York dropped the most passes in any game of the 2011 season. It was pretty crazy how they let Rodgers down that season

Then came that MNF game vs. the Washington Commanders and the Eagles were humbled, but now they are 1 win away from their 2nd Super Bowl appearance in 5 years.

As a titans fan, 2008 was one of my favorite years.

Cam was one right tackle away from a sb crazy if he went to a different team or had what Jalen Hurts has.

Don’t matter the record, if you hot at the right time you gonna thrive

Technically in 2010, the Chiefs were the last undefeated team, not the Chiefs and Steelers. Steelers lost in week 4, while the Chiefs had a bye week, so they were still 3-0 entering week 5.

I remember thinking the '08 Titans might just be the team to finally take us all the way. But once again another postseason letdown. It took them 8 years to make it back to the playoffs

Crazy that the Patriots 2007 undefeated season would've ended in Baltimore if not for Rex Ryan calling a time out. The Ravens season was lost by that point and they would've salvaged it that night. Also, the Ravens divisional loss to that '06 Colts team was brutal. 2nd worst loss in team history.

The Patriots also started 2004 6-0, 2015 10-0, and 2019 8-0. Nevermind that they also had the fourth most (2000s) and the most wins (2010s) in a decade in NFL history.

2011 Packers should have lost to Giants in regular season but the payback in the playoffs was much better

If The Bills and Eagles are in The Super Bowl, Rodger Goodell might need to change The Stadium into a Fight Pit or Wag Games Change. Yes, with William Regal saying those immortal words, "WAH GAMES!!!!"
