This thread is intended to be a walk down memory lane to kill time during the bye week - it is by no means a predictor of anything, especially given how long ago it was.
1996
Denver Broncos (13-3) are #1 seed in the AFC
New England Patriots (11-5) are the #2 seed in the AFC
In the divisional round, the fairly recent expansion Jaguars (coached by Tom Coughlin) upset the Broncos 30-27 behind Natrone Means (186 total yards, 1 TD). Broncos are led by a future Hall of Fame QB with a reputation for not being able to win the big game.
The next day (Sunday) the Patriots kill the Steelers in the fog in Foxboro. Not a bad day for Curtis Martin - 166 yards, 19 carries, 3 TD's including one for 78yards.
The following week the Patriots earn a trip to their 2nd Super Bowl...in New Orleans...against the Packers
Maybe the Bengals will be this year's Jaguars? BJGE plays Natrone Means?
Perhaps a SuperDome rematch with the Packers...only with a better result?
