Re: 1972: Steelers VS Redskins
While this may be of little value the two teams tied in preseason 10-10. Bradshaw played the whole game while Jurgenson and Kilmer split time.

Re: '84 Broncos discussion
I saw them at the time as a paper tiger. Not a 13-win team. They benefited from at least one fluky win (in the snow against Green Bay), and not one but three come-from-behind 16-13 wins over division rivals. Still, I had to give them credit for prevailing in what was an insanely competitive AFC Wes...

Re: '84 Broncos discussion
Maybe someone mentioned it and I didn't see it but didn't Elway get injured in the playoff game? I seem to recall him limping a lot in the 4th quarter.

Re: Notable Landry-vs-Shula games
Landry wasn't the Cowboys' coach in 1993 though.

Re: Notable Landry-vs-Shula games
The games that stand out to me are 1981 and 1984. In 1984 the Cowboys had a great comeback to win 28-27. 1984 the Dolphins knocked the Cowboys out of the playoffs for the first time in 10 years. That game was great also.

Crazier than a time when the color of your skin determined whether you could play in the major leagues or not?

Re: Something dumb that you remember about watching the NFL
Would not a pump fake qualify as "any intentional forward movement of his arm" and even if not how would the official determine whether something was a pump fake or a change of mind? I never like rules that involve mind reading. I think what annoys me about the conversation here though is ...

According to Wikipedia the Tuck Rule was only started in 1999 and was used against the Patriots earlier in the year. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tuck_Rule_Game

Re: Most impressive/interesting achievement
In a 1942 game vs. Washington the New York Giants didn't get a first down [at the time touchdowns didn't count as first downs] , only had one yard rushing, and only completed one pass but won 14-7. That one completion went for a Touchdown.

Re: Obscure trivia
Name the game... When both these teams met, they went into the game with a combined 15 losses. This would be the second victory of the season for the winning team, and their HC for this win was not their HC at season's beginning; and this very season would be the only season that he would ever at a...
