This team allowed the most points in a season by any team in the 1990s

They had a -235 PD and somehow it wasn't even the worst PD for a team that season

I get the feeling that you are a little bitter because those late '90's Bronco teams are kind of forgotten about because they fell in between that NFC run of dominance and the Patriots dynasty. I am not upset, because it's just a game, but I will put it to you this way: Who did the 97 Broncos beat ...

With KC trying to do what no team has done in the SB era, I want to look at teams that had a realistic shot at a Threepeat No 68 Packers (Lombardi left) or 99 Broncos (Elway retired) Between these teams how would you assess their 3Peat Chances and efforts: 1974 Dolphins 1976 Steelers 1980 Steelers 1...

George Allen's first season in Washington. NFL Films did a really good overview of their season that used to be on YouTube. Not sure if it still is. Basically knocked the Rams out of the playoffs on a late Monday Night Football win. I was going to mention Allen too. Besides his arrival, the two thi...

New Orleans made their wins count (Rams, 49ers, Cowboys- plus the Oakland tie that felt like a win)

Then how do you explain better Cleveland/Houston rosters losing to basically an average 1 man team? Simple. The Oilers were chokers with no killer instinct, and the Browns (in their first two AFC Title losses to Denver) made key mistakes and were too conservative at times. Denver had no killer inst...

The 1995 Colts were even luckier. They were 2 huge comebacks and a pick 6 before halftime from 6-10. Honestly, they both were. However, that was the era where the more talented AFC teams (Denver, Raiders, Houston in 91-93) would always underachieve, and it would open the door for teams like this an...

Albeit the AFC was basically riding the coattails of OAK/MIA/PIT

I said it before and I’ll say it again- it was a top heavy conference. Outside of the 85 Bears/96 Packers, it was basically the 49ers and NFCE carrying the load Oh, definitely. You can't be an AFC Champion being average to weak. Those Bronco teams were average. They had John Elway and not a whole l...

The Cowboys won in spite of Johnson? I don't think so ... he put the fear of God into his players and they responded. Aikman felt the team was too lax under Switzer and Gailey. Johnson could get away with gambles and hunches better than any HC today. Too bad he couldn't get the same results with th...
