Re: 1984 49ers = Overrated
I think that's kind of ridiculous, but I think you did mention a really overrated team: the 1985 Bears. They went 15-1 (winning a weak division in a walk) and routed an 11-5 AFC team quarterbacked by Tony Eason and coached by Raymond Berry; the 49ers went 15-1 and trounced a 14-2 team with Dan Mari...

Re: 1984 49ers = Overrated
When the NFC won 13 SB’s in a row, the conference was NOT truly deep and stacked Outside of the 85 Bears and 96 Packers- the 49ers and NFC East did most of the damage. You cannot tell me with a straight face that Minnesota/New Orleans of that era would have been a touchdown favorite in the SB. Ther...

Re: What's the biggest football moment you witnessed in person?
This is..I believe. At the very least, I think Hester tied it the next season vs the NYG.
I was there for the Vasher one below

Re: 1992 Philadelphia Eagles discussion
I know a loss is a loss. But, man, those four defeats - each vs quality opponents - by a combined 13 pt is something worth solid mention, at least. Yes. just two wins vs above-500 teams. That Dolphin squad is seen as a 'soft' AFC 2nd-seed. but beating an 11-5 Marino/Shula team is beating an 11-5 Ma...

Re: 1992 Philadelphia Eagles discussion
For what its worth, in addition to having the #7 offense & #6 D, they returned to the playoffs - winning their last four - and did something they couldn't do when Buddy was there and that's win a January game! Of course Buddy a better overall HC than Kotite but post-season-wise, maybe Richie FW...

Re: Kirk Cousins (R.I.P. Vikings career?) - How did he do?
For my "forever project" of having teams consisting of each N.F.L. franchise's best players of all time compete against one another I've never been able to come up with a clear-cut #2 QB from the entire history of the MIN Vikings. I think a case can be made for Daunte Culpepper and Randal...

Re: Andy Reid vs Tom Landry vs Don Shula
Its close on Reid and Gibbs. I think Gibbs was better and he didnt have to rely on pick plays during his coaching career. Reid deserves credit getting and coaching up Mahomes but during his days with Philly and KC with Alex Smith, he was atrocious with timeouts, clock management and teams running a...
