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...

Re: Toughest/Easiest schedules in football history

I wouldn't say it was the toughest schedule in NFL history but I think in "Greatest Teams Ever" discussions, the 1985's Bears schedule is pretty remarkable in that they played and beat: New England (11-5) x 2 NY Jets (11-5) Dallas (10-6) NY Giants (10-6) Washington (10-6) San Francisco (10...

Re: Andy Reid vs Tom Landry vs Don Shula

He is tied with Gibbs and also has more conference championships than Gibbs Gibbs' three Rings each won by three different non-Canton QBs places he over Andy with me for now. Two of those World Championships were strike years but '91 really seemed to legitimize things and I am a believer that had '...

Re: Why did Sam Wyche fare so poorly in Tampa?

But they got enamored with Vinny, thought he couldn't miss, I agree this was the sentiment at the time, that Vinny was a 'can't miss' prospect, but in retrospect that is kind of crazy. Testaverde's performance in the Fiesta Bowl was frightening. He basically cost his team the national title. Yet ev...

Re: WRs who could/should have won MVP

Just looked and Moss finished 4th. Cunningham 3rd. I just think Moss was the thing that finally made that the Vikings peak.

Re: WRs who could/should have won MVP

Randy Moss in 1998 would have been/should have been more in the conversation than he was.
