Re: 2016 NFL Schedule

The Jets schedule is odd. Home, road, road Home, road, road Home, road, road Not sure we have seen exactly that before. Maybe Ivan Urena can chime in on this. Then, during the last eight regular season weeks, the Jets play two road games. The Steelers playing the Bengals in Week 2 when Vontaze Burf...

Re: 1960s Playoff Bowl Tiebreakers

While looking at the NFL standings from the 1960s, I noticed that four times (1960 and 1964 - 66), there was a tie for second place in one of the conferences. For example, Detroit and San Francisco both finished with 7-5 records in the Western Conference in 1960. What tiebreakers were used in that ...

Re: Longest stretch between two teams playing each other

I've always want to know the reverse side of it, which two non-division teams played the most consecutive seasons since the 1970 merger. I would think Raiders-Steelers, Cowboys-Rams, Colts-Patriots (this last one since 2002) as the longest, but I know I miss many. New Orleans and Tampa Bay played e...

Yep. Definitely a typo. They have it correct on page 240, "CAROLINA 27, Arizona 16."

Re: Who got screwed most by 1970-1974 playoff rotation forma

Gotta agree with Bryan on Miami being cheated the worst -- it's unimaginable now that a team could go 14-0-0 and not have the home field advantage all the way through the playoffs, and the experience with Miami was probably the number one reason that they scrapped what seemed like a natural followu...

Re: 1972 Packers in the Playoffs

In fact, based on the divisional rotation, had Green Bay defeated Washington, the Packers would have hosted the 19...
