Fans still reeling from the disappointment of their teams' divisional-round losses over the weekend received a harsh reminder from the NFL Shop on Monday morning.

The apparel retailer accidentally sent out emails advertising "Conference Championship Bound" gear for the Pittsburgh Steelers, New Orleans Saints, Atlanta Falcons, and Tennessee Titans.

Apparently NFL Shop likes the firing of Mularkey so much it’s predicting where we will be this time next year. @JasonWolf @Titans @natebain pic.twitter.com/q5hB8met3Q
