What do you think was your team's proudest win and ugliest loss of the regular season?
Me as a Saints fan:
Proudest - There were several proud home games, such as demolishing the Cowboys, and stomping the Bears on the road felt good, but I'll give the proudest win to the first game, taking the division from the Falcons. It wasn't clear yet how disappointing the Falcons were going to be.
Ugliest loss - Getting stomped by Seattle was not surprising, getting stomped by the Rams was embarrassing, but losing to the Panthers to give up the division hurt the most because they needed that win more than any other, and they didn't step up.

Proudest: Every game at home where the Saints dominated division teams. Especially the Panthers.
Ugliest: ... By far the Seattle loss.
That was just down right wrong and shocking! But they would've beat Seattle in the dome! Also the Panthers. I saw my Buddy Brees get sacked tons of times..so pretty much every road loss sucked. The jets, pats and rams hurt too.

Bears Fan
Proudest win: Maybe beating Cincinnati the first game of the season, or destroying Dallas a few weeks ago where the Bears scored on every possession until the end where the just killed the clock. Or the game where they beat the Ravens in a strange game that was delayed for a few hours after the rain started.
Ugliest Loss: The Bears lost to three last place teams, The Vikings, The Redskins, and the Rams. The Vikings was hard because on a strange face masking penalty in OT the Viking first hit a game winning field goal. Due to the penalty, it was re-kicked and they missed. The Bears marched down the field, and for some strange reason the coach decided to go for a 47yrd field goal on second down. Of course Gould missed the field goal, only for the Vikings to lead another drive and kick the game winning field goal. Although the worst had to be last night, losing to GB to end the season. Which ever team won would take the division. The Bears are up by 1 and have the Packer 4th and 8 around midfield with secs left on the clock. Only to have Rodgers, who had been out for 7 weeks hit Cobb, who had been on IR for a 48yrd TD. Bears end up losing.
But the worst part of the season was not even a loss. After years of having piddling offences, with a strong defense. This year the offence finally seemed to be NFL caliber. Except the defense became so so bad in just one year. One of the worst Ds I have ever seen, from a team whom usually takes pride in defense.

As an Eagles fan, the proudest moment for my team was the Week 17 win against the Cowboys, to clinch the team's 7th NFC East division title since 2001.
The ugliest loss for my team was the Week 15 loss against the Vikings. That loss cost the Eagles a first round bye, as well as a perfect 2nd half of the season.

Eagles fan.
Proudest win - Although beating the snot out of the Bears last week was entertaining, I thought when we beat the Redskins in week 12 and finally broke our home losing streak from 2012 was bigger. I know the Redskins are pathetic but that game got the monkey off of our backs and we went on to beat some bigger teams like Arizona, Detroit (at the time they were 7-5 and favorites for the North) and Chicago all at home. That game got the Eagles back on track.
Ugliest loss - Easily the two week stretch where we put up a total of 10 points between the Cowboys and Giants. God what a pathetic stretch that was, I was about to give up on the 2013 season after that, but enter Nick Foles...

Proudest: Manning breaking 2 records in the first half, sitting out the entire second half against the Raiders in the season finale
Ugliest: Losing the game to the Pats because the ball hit Tony Carter on the leg after Welker waved everyone away from the ball, easy field goal in OT after an ugly offensive game by Manning, but a fantastic running performance by Moreno.

As a Patriots fan their ugliest loss was defiantly to the Jets at the beginning of the season. Before the team had some time to sync together the rag-tag team of rookies couldn't even rally to beat the Jets. It was hard to watch.
They had three comeback wins in a row at one point in the season. Their best win though was defiantly against the Broncos. At half time the score was 23-0 Broncos. Somehow in the second half Tom Brady tied the game at 31. Somehow the team came back from 23 points down in a single half. In overtime both teams ran into a stalemate. After three possessions neither team could get close enough to score. Then after the Patriots punted Wes Welker (who is still awesome, no matter what team hes non) miscommunicated with his teammate and caused him to muff the ball. The Patriots recovered it at the 20 and kicked the easy field goal capping off a 31-34 comeback victory. Amazing. One of the best games I've ever seen, and I've seen quite a few.

Proudest?
None.
Every game they were allowed to win were squeaked out due to the ineptitude of the opponent when it was to the Falcons advantage.
All the wins were just that close to being lost and probably should have been lost since the Atlanta organization is so predictable in play calling and so unreliable in defensive posture it's truly laughable.
Ugliest?
All of them.
Happy that they finally showed up and at least tried/possibly could have won to make me know they were worthy of being called a NFL franchise?
In Green Bay they had the ability to defeat the Packers again in their vaunted home sanctuary the way they did on January 4, 2003 to knock the Pack from the playoffs 27 - 7 (when Vick was Vick and not the player he is today) but no they lost again after being up 21 - 10 at the half and not scoring while giving up 12 points to lose by 1.
In San Francisco they fought to the last minute (defense tried to win/offense did their usual semi OK attempt but fell on their heads as usual when it counted ... probably something to do with a bad pass/missed catch/pick 6 in the last moments of a decent game) and put the fear of GOD in the shorts of the San Fran faithful.
Last game of the year for both the Falcons and my favorite player Tony Gonzalez. I don't know where to start ... but I'll remind you of the one known as Matty Ice and his penchant for throwing pick six interceptions/interceptions/countless sacks without the ability to throw the ball away thereby taking us out of field goal range happy feet mentality.
A pick 6 within 10 yards of our own goal line.
W O W !!!
Thank you Tony!
Thanks Atlanta!

Proudest win: I can't really decide between Brady's last minute drive over the Saints with the beautiful TD pass to Thompkins, or Brady erasing a 24-0 deficit against Peyton Manning and the Broncos, and shutting all of those Broncos fans up.
Ugliest loss: The Bengals kept the Patriots at 6 points throughout the game, ending Tom Brady's chance of breaking Drew Brees' consecutive TD record.

CHARGER FAN HERE:
Our proudest win of the season was a couple of weeks ago when we beat the heck out of the Broncos on Thursday Night Football in a game that NOBODY gave the Chargers a chance of winning!
Our ugliest loss? Probably to the Raiders earlier this season. But we had a couple of losses that were pretty heartbreaking. We lost to the Texans after leading by 21 points in the 3rd quarter. We lost to the Titans with a miracle touchdown with 20 seconds left to go. And we lost to the Redskins after having the ball on their 1 yardline with a 1st down and less than 1 minute to play but couldn't get it in the end zone! With the exception of our 27-17 loss to Oakland, all of our losses were 6 points or less! But you don't get extra credit points for losing by field goals.

Packers - Best win was a tie between yesterday and the Dallas game. Worst game was Detroit on Thanksgiving.
