Re: Tom Danyluk ranks 1980's SB champions
Good view Bryan but though the 1981 Niners were the ultimate Cinderella squad, they had a great season in terms of consistency, even with a pedestrian running game. Dean, Reynolds and rookie Lott galvanized the defense, which suffocated the Bengals and Cowboys ... You really consider giving up 27 a...

Re: Third.string quarterback question
Having 3 QB's active active in the 1970's may have happened more often but plenty of teams got around it. A good example was Dallas. From 1970-73 Dallas didn't have a third active QB. I believe from 1970 -71 Dan Reeves would have stepped into that roll if needed. 1972-73 they had Jack Concannon stas...

Re: Urban Meyers bizarre debacle
I see behavior like this and I just can't reconcile in my head how he was ever able to have such long, lasting success at the collegiate level. It's hard to explain...and honestly I believe it might be due to some sort of cognitive decline he may have suffered due to the brain cyst (or whatever tha...

Re: Why was 76-77 Bucs offense so bad? McKay 'limited' NFL
Reason #1 1976-77 Bucs had 6 starting QBS, Steve Spurrier, Parnell Dickinson, Terry Hanratty, Gary Huff, Randy Hedberg & Jeb Blount. Of those 6, only Gary Huff played in the NFL a season after starting for the Bucs. Compare that to the Seahawks they had 2 starting QBS in the same time frame Jim ...

Re: Levy/Mackovic Chiefs discussion
I just want to comment on all the QB remarks. I firmly believe the luck of where a QB ends up is almost as important as talent. Would Dan Marino have been great on the Chiefs? Probably. Would he have won or even made Super Bowls? I don't know. A low hit that Kenny or Fuller side stepped in 1983 may ...

Re: What if Namath signs with St Louis?
Okay so the premise is Namath signs with the Cardinals. Going into the 1965 season Charley Johnson is coming off of a decent season leading the Cardinals to second place in the East with a 9-3-2 record he leads the NFL in passing yards but also interceptions. So based on the above Johnson is a bit o...

Re: Immaculate Reception - coach's film "all 22" angle
So based on what was described had Tatum allowed Fuqua to make the catch. He tackles Fuqua and game over.

Re: Roethlisberger retires
I read all the posts so no one has an issue with his off the field situations while a player? We're just gonna act like the NFL and ESPN and chalk it up to immaturity? I would think that would influence if he is a first ballot guy or not.

Re: Super Bowl thoughts
*The call on Wilson at the end of the game was the correct call. I don't disagree that it was correct but what I have an issue with is the referees decided early on that they were " going to let them play". So if that is case, do it the entire game. This was like an umpire with a strike z...
