All seven losses came against AFC opponents, would have been eight if the Pats* had played their starters.
So 5-7, but more like 4-8 against conference opponents.
One of those wins was against the Browns, two against the hapless, foot out the door Jets, thus leaving one "quality" AFC win last year against...The Dolphins. Whoopee.
To Schwartz's credit, he did very well against his former divisional foes in the NFC North, where we went 4-0. Those wins:
Three missed field goals that led to the game winner as time expired against Detroit.
The game winner with no time against Minnesota.
An overtime win over the (pitiful) 2014 Bears.
And the Green Bay win.
If not for those squeakers, 2014 could have been...yeesh...real ugly.
