I'm going solely on memory from several years ago, but I recall looking into the worst records to make the Playoffs, and the Vikings made it one year with a 7-9 record (if not 7-9, it was one game below .500). I do believe that a 6-10 division winner would be a new record.

 

When Seattle got in with a 7-9 record, I read somewhere that was the first time a losing team made the playoffs. You must be thinking of the year MInnesota was 8-8 and won at Green Bay in the playoffs.

That's possible. It has been a while.
