Re: Three titans gone
NFL.com said that Mayo "had it in his contract" that he would succeed Belichick when the time came and that they avoided a "lengthy hiring process" by sharing this info with the NFL. My question is: How does this supplant the "Rooney Rule" about interviewing minority pr...

Re: Jimmy Graham, 6 catches 4 TDs this year
I would like to know if a similar list can be do for running backs. Off the top of my head I remember when Raiders RB Zack Crockett scored a lot of 1-yard TDs from 2000-2003 with few carries. And of course the 1979 Chargers-Raiders TNF game when Booker Russell scored three 1-yard TDs in his only th...

Although, in a way, he was set up for failure as Vince's Packers were pretty much in decline by the time Phil got the HC job.

Re: 'Bye-'bye, Pac-12
I've said many times (including on this board) that so much in life is ruined by bucks and bullshit. Tradition, the common good and common sense get trampled by greed and power grabs. And not just sports. It's just never-ending. And yeah, get off my lawn.... "Bucks and Bullshit!" The new ...

But his legacy probably is, as Crazy said, that silly game that has created so many football fanatics (even among the players). The one thing...

Re: Rules question from Sunday
Its gotten to the point where I don't even know what I am watching anymore. I don't know what it is either but it sure ain't (our) football. As I understand it any kickoff fair caught (or just allowed to bounce) inside the 25 (including the end zone) is ruled a touchback and brought out to the 25 y...

Re: NFL's only 4-point game (100 years ago)
It is interesting that, as the Cardinals points were (of course) scored on two safeties, all the scoring for both teams was done when Racine had the ball.

Re: Matt Hazeltine
I don't remember him well but he was respected on the 49ers and in the Bay Area.
He was a team captain for years.
