If they lose, it will be remember as whatever the media thinks it will get the most attention.

Using this basic idea, if they lose to a well coached and executed game they will be an remembered as a team that finished the reg season undefeated, maybe a small blurb in history about they didnt go all the way. If they lose by being outplayed, over confident, or poor coaching, I think they will remembered as a undefeated team that was mared by cheating and possibly their own newspaper clippings.

Using recent memory as a basis, look what happened to Gibbs. He screwed up the double timeout to ice the kicker and many jumped on to fire him. No excuses were given even with ST still fresh in everyones mind.

Look at Gibbs now, he the savior for the Redskin organization. Even if he were to lose in the playoffs, he will be looked at a coach who still has it.
