Last year, the Houston Texans made the playoffs after starting 0-3, and in 2017 the Los Angeles Chargers managed to finish the season with a 9-7 record after starting 0-4. However, The Chargers missed the postseason due to tie breakers. Digging and early hole is never ideal, but it isn’t impossible to dig out of.
In a recent interview with Geoff Hobson the Bengals very own Sam Wyche pointed out that he started his 1st season as head coach 0-5 before it “clicked” and the Bengals finished that season by going 8-3 the rest of the way.
