Don Coryell arrived with a cutting-edge blueprint in the late 1970s, but his pass-happy teams fell short in January. Dan Fouts five INTs doomed the 79 Chargers against a depleted Oilers team; the Bolts regrouped to deploy a then-unprecedented three 1,000-yard receivers (John Jefferson, Kellen Winslow, Charlie Joiner) in 1980. The Raiders then secured a Super Bowl XV berth in San Diego. Air Coryell s peak and low point occurred in January 1982. After an epic OT win in Miami, the Chargers played in the NFL s coldest game (wind chill: minus-59 degrees). The Bengals Freezer Bowl rout nixed a tantalizing Coryell-Bill Walsh Super Bowl. San Diego s run ended soon after.

An NFL team once went two months without winning a game and still made the playoffs. The 2014 Panthers beat the Bears on Oct. 5 and tied the Bengals before losing six straight, leaving them 3-8-1 on Dec. 6. Thanks to a four-game win streak (and a terrible division), Carolina (19th on offense, 21st defensively) hosted a playoff game and won it. Of course, the Cardinals were on their third quarterback, Ryan Lindley, by then to set up one of the worst playoff matchups in NFL history. The Seahawks eliminated the Panthers, but Carolina won 17 of its next 18 games en route to Super Bowl 50.
