Re: 1984 49ers = Overrated

Plus they had an incredible list of names on that coaching staff. Green Bay just flat out couldn't beat the Cowboys. Period. Especially at Dallas. Once free agency/age/injury hit the Cowboys, then the Packers took over for their back-to-back NFC titles. Those Packers weren't as good as the Cowboys ...

Re: 1994 Steelers vs. 1997 Steelers

The 94 Steelers were better. The 1997 team shouldn't have even made the playoffs. They had a few games they should have lost, like Washington, @Baltimore, @Arizona, and @NE. Den and KC were the two best teams in the AFC that year, and that was the defacto AFC Title Game. Oh please. 97 KC was a frau...

Re: Obscure trivia

I am eagerly anticipating a book to be published about this team later this year. ;) correct 1964 Bills for those not in the know. The same team that led their league on points scored, yards gained, and turnovers lost. The only other offense (that I've found) to lead their league in all three categ...

I don't really see Parker's case as being that complicated. I understand that a number of voters aren't familiar with him, but he wasn't competing with anyone else for a spot.

Re: Pro Football Hall of Fame, Class of 2024 talk

Does Art Powell not getting in break a streak? Who was the last Senior Finalist not to get in before this? Thanks. Dick Stanfel in 2012 Stanfel was chosen again by the Senior Committee a few years later, after he died. He made the HOF that time. Paul Tagliabue was the last coach/contributor to not ...

Re: Quarterbacks that were hideous in bad weather???

I think Montana proved that he could play in less-than-ideal conditions in his final college game, the 1979 Cotton Bowl. It was the day after a surprise ice storm hit Dallas, and the wind chill was below zero. Montana missed the start of the 2nd half, as his body temperature fell to 96 degrees. He m...

Re: Random trivia "dumb team"

I looked this 1983 Seahawks-Raiders game up and noticed something. Jim Plunkett, Marc Wilson, and Marcus Allen all threw TD passes for Los Angeles. I wonder now how many times has that happened since 1950 - three different teammates throw a TD pass in one game. I found a couple, both involving Detr...
