As I noted in another thread here, earlier today, it’s happened three times: > [@Sports in which no scoring is possible](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/sports-in-which-no-scoring-is-possible/975396/72): > > There have been three teams which have won their divisions with only 7 wins (2020 Washington, 2014 Carolina, 2010 Seattle) All of them were division winners, in weak divisions, in the past 12 years. As @RickJay pointed out in the other thread, now that all of the divisions only have four teams (before 2002, most or all of the divisions were five teams), it’s become more likely. I don’t think (but I’m not positive) that any team has ever qualified for a wild card berth with a losing record. It certainly seems possible that we’ll see it in the NFC South this year. --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/nfl-2022-week-twelve-angry-men/975406)._
