The NFL has had some great teams over the years, teams that never seem to lose and make winning look simple. Some of these teams have steamrolled their opposition, dismantling defenses with ease. Others are more methodical in their approach. They grind their opponents with time and usually win close games right at the end.The 2022 season has seen a very interesting side take prominence - the Philadelphia Eagles. After defeating the Houston Texans to kick off Week 9, the Eagles now stand at 8-0. Many are now wondering if Philadelphia can go undefeated this season, a feat worthy of the history books. Others wonder how often this occurs and how other franchises have fared in the same position. So, how many teams have started an NFL season 8-0?According to statistics, there are twenty-nine teams that have started a season with an 8-0 record. The Philadelphia Eagles became the latest addition to this illustrious list. All 28 previous teams that started 8-0 have made the playoffs, with 15 winning their conference championships and eight winning the Super Bowl. It is important to note that none of the last ten teams that have started 8-0 have gone on to win the Super Bowl.The above stats make for interesting reading.
