It was so bad that when Jerry Rosburg was given the euthanization duties for the last two games of the season, they gave him carte blanche to fire multiple members of the staff. There was no good reason for this, other than principle. "You don't get to finish when you have failed this spectacularly."
I'd love to know if there has been anything else quite like it in NFL history.

True, but we did have a hearty laugh at the lowest lowlights of the whole ordeal. We might not have the whole experience of suffering throughout it but we caught glimpses peeking through the window.
And to be fair, that level of ineptness is outright comedy. At least you had that to look forward to.
