Re: Opinion question...what was the worst pass in NFL histor
1945 NFL Championship game. Game tied 0-0 in the first quarter and Washington has the ball at their own five-yard-line. Quarterback Sammy Baugh drops back into his own end zone to pass and his throw hits the goal post, by rules at the time a safety for the Rams. Cleveland wins the game 15-14. In off...

Re: 1931 Portsmouth Spartans discussion
I suspect you're referring to Larry Names' history of the Packers. Cliff Christl leads the list of people who are quite dismissive of his work. It's rather strange, because he did do an enormous amount of research, but he made some enormous leaps to rather foolish conclusions. And somehow, despite ...

Re: 25 best small-school quarterbacks in NFL history
I wonder how they define "small school." Central Florida, for example, is a Division I FBS school that has the largest enrollment of any college in Florida. San Jose State is also a division I FBS school with an enrollment well over 30,000. It gets back to definition - when Culpepper ente...

Another guy I think should have gone at least once for sure was C Brad Meester for the Jacksonville Jaguars. If he had played in another city, on a winning team I think he gets more praise. Liked him as a player.

Re: College realignment
Meh. Everything's a money grab in this freaking world. It's harder and harder to find one true thing anywhere. Again, we need a “Like” button here. It’s not even just about making money. It’s about maximizing profit above all else even if that means sacrificing the good (or great), stable and/or lo...

Re: 2022 Hall of Very Good
This year, we received 85 nominations from 28 members. It's likely we would have received more but the only announcement about nominations that appeared in The Coffin Corner did not include either my e-mail or mailing addresses as has been the case in previous years. I don't have a year-by-year bre...

Re: (Stupid) Question I Have as a Younger Fan
In the ‘45 NFL Championship Game in Cleveland, Washington’s Sammy Baugh dropped back into his own end zone to pass, hit the goal post with the throw and the ball bounced back into the end zone. Under the rules at the time, it was a safety and the Redskins ended up losing the game 15-14. In the off-s...
