three off the top of my head before going to look it up, Pats, Phins, or Bills.
why do u say rumor, isn't this something easily verified?

somebody posted it on Redit and I don't care to look it up. Let's assume it's fact ...
until someone proves it wrong.

Lions?

Um, didn't the Bears play on wild card weekend last year? double doink?

Bills were in the wild card 2 years ago in the worst game ever against the Jags.

Pats is a good call.
Phins were in a couple years ago with Matt Moore.
Unless I am completely misunderstanding the question.

Looks like Bossman took the old reddit version of this thread from December when the Bears had not played.

Question is legit it turns out, but there was only two teams total in the Browns and the team not named in the OP. The other two, as Larry already pointed out, played in a wild card game in the last 10 years. I won't give away the last one yet since I looked it up.
bonus question: in looking at this there was only one year in the time frame where all road teams one. what year was it and can you name the winners? i would think no one remembers things like this, but if anyone can, this board will.

it was them, the Pats. Browns are the other. 30 teams have played in the Wild Card game at least once since 2010.

I do remember this happening, but I can’t remember when. Gotta figure it was Texans and bengals losing at home as division winners and I feel like Seattle May have been a winner over the cowboys and packers over someone...

Some more random trivia on the 4s:
Last week, Carson Wentz surpassed 4,000 passing yards on the season, making him the first Eagle in history to throw for more than 4,000 yards.
Which 4 franchises still have never had a 4,000 yard passer?

The bears have to be one of them. I think Kramer and Cutler came close, but not quite.

Didnt look at the other responses but I am certain the Patriots
ETA- now that I read earlier posts I am less than 100% but I could have sworn I heard it on the radio Monday... Quite possibly that this is Bradys first wild card weekend game?

Easy to scratch off the
Patriots
Dolphins
Steelers
Bengals
Raiders
Chiefs
Broncos
Chargers
Colts
Texans
Saints
Falcons
Panthers
Bucs
Packers
Vikings
Lions
Giants
Washington
Eagles
Cowboys
Seahawks
49ers
Cardinals
Rams
So that leaves the
Bills
Jets
Ravens
Browns
Jaguars
Titans
Bears
Of those i would guess the titans browns bills Jaguars but it's awfully close..
I feel like Flacco Grossman and maybe Pennington and Favre were the ones who got there.

Pretty sure they lost to the ravens in wild card weekend years ago after a bunch of first quarter turnovers.

oops, I might have screeed this up when I looked it up. It might only be three teams.

thinking brunell did it with mccardell and smith, but all the others on fred's list looks good. titans browns bills look like a great guess, with bears ravens jets right behind for my guesses and removing jags.

I think only the Bears have never had a 4k passer now that Wentz got there.

Yeah I totally screwed this up. Pretty sure that it is just the Bears.
i though that the bengals and browns were also part of the club, but not true due to sipe and dalton (at least)

The Jets is a bit of a tricky one because Namath got there in 1967 but they were still in the AFL. Not sure if any Jet did it since then
This is the craziest part:
Carson Wentz is the first QB to throw for 4,000 yards without a single WR hitting 500 yards.

This has to be one of the worst nfl playoff weekends ever. Lousy teams, incredibly boring matchups.

Browns, Pats, Bucs and ... Lions?

Namath eclipsed 4,000 once and the closest any Jets QB came was Fitzpatrick with a little over 3,900. Favre may have but he blew out his bicep with around six weeks left and fell apart.

Really? I think it’s a very good weekend. The only game that really doesn’t interest me is Hawks/Eagles.
Interseptopus

100% disagree. I dont watch much football during the regular season, but I am stoked to watch these games. Seattle/Philly I will not be watching but the others are going to be great football.
But yes, if you like 56-17 scoreboards then this weekend is probably not for you

I seem to recall that Testaverde did it either his last year in Cleveland or first year in Baltimore (or both?) Bledsoe must have topped 4K with Buffalo.
Are we not counting the Houston Oilers? Because I'm sure Warren Moon got there.

Testaverde did with the Ravens (1996), Bledsoe did with Buffalo in the same year (1996), and Moon got there back to back years with the Oilers (1990 & 1991).
It seems 4000 yards without having 1000 yard receivers is more common than I thought. Well, common is probably a stretch, but certainly not that big of an anomaly in the modern day NFL. Since 2003 19 different QB's have done it including Wentz this year. Prior to that only 6 QB's had done it going back to the origin of the Superbowl. Underlying stats from PFR. Check out Brees' numbers without 1000 yard receivers.
