ETA I believe the Pats have the greatest number of players on IR for a team to ever reach a Super Bowl. It’s crazy how good they ended up being despite losing Edelman, Hightower, their top draft choice, Rob Nink, Mitchell, Marcus Cannon, and a bunch of other role players in that front 7

This was one of Bills best coaching jobs.


They had 15 guys on IR. That was good for 20th most in the league. I doubt they had the greatest number of players on IR for a team to reach the Superbowl. Hell, your opponent in the SB only had two less players on IR.

To be fair, when you look at it by cap impact instead of # of players, they are 10th in the league.

The combo of no Edelman and cooks being taken out in 1st half was game.
