Prior to the AFL-NFL merger in 1970, there were no wild card teams to make the playoffs. In 1967, the Los Angeles Rams and the Baltimore Colts tied for the Coastal Division championship with identical records of 11-1-2. The Rams made the playoffs and the Colts went home because the Colts lost the final game of the season to the Rams, 34-30, giving the Rams the tiebreaker advantage against the Colts.
No NFL team has missed the playoffs with a 12-4 record or better; however, the San Francisco 49ers missed the playoffs at 12-2 in 1948, when they were a member of the AAFC. The Baltimore Colts in 1967 missed the playoffs at 11-1-2.
1967 Baltimore Colts. Entering the 14th and final game with a 11-0-2 record against the 10-1-2 Los Angeles Rams. The Rams beat the Colts 34-10 before a nationally televised audience on CBS.The Rams were 1-0-1 against the Colts thus sending the Rams into the playoffs and sending the Colts home.
The Colts are a fairly good team as of 2009, when they made it to the Super Bowl for the second time in three years. Over the first decade of the 21st Century, they are among the most consistently successful teams, their record tarnished only by failures in the playoffs. They are the only team in NFL history to win at least 12 games in seven consecutive seasons (2003-2009).
The team that won the 2010 playoffs were the Phoenix Suns.
Between the 2000-2009 seasons, no team has made the playoffs every season. The Indianapolis Colts have made the playoffs in 9 seasons, the most of any team. 2001 was the only season in the past 10 that they didn't make the playoffs as their record was 6-10. The Philadelphia Eagles made the playoffs in 8 of those 10 seasons, missing out only in 2005 (6-10) and 2007 (8-8).
