Most NFL playoff losses

They suffer through training camp and a seemingly-endless preseason. They slug their way through 16 regular season games. Finally, the real games — the playoffs — get underway, and before you know it, it’s time to put up the helmets and pads for another season.

Once the NFL postseason begins, only one team is going to end up happy. The rest will simply limp into the offseason wondering what might have been.

Making the playoffs is fun. Losing once you get there isn’t.
