Oszuscik,

Would it be possible to get a copy of all of the 1977 Packers game books?

Are there any plans to put any of the newly found or upgraded gamebooks on the members only portion of the page? We haven't had any major updates in a few years and no updates at all since last summer. If we could get some of the Washington, Green Bay, Cincinnati, Houston, Chicago, etc... game books put up on the site that would fill in a lot of the pre-1988 holes that we are currently missing. I've compiled a spreadsheet of gamebooks that I know that are missing between our site and nflgsis from 1975 to 1995 if anyone is interested in collaborating. If anyone in the gamebooks committee needs any assistance going through books or whatever, send me a PM and I'd happy to help in any way that I can.

For some reason your email address didn't work. Is rghansen at arvig dot com correct?

I'm happy to provide what I can. At one point or another I've had gamebooks sent to me from the Packers, Redskins, Bears, and a few other teams. I don't have a complete archive of every gamebook from every season, but I worked to collect every gamebook from specific teams that had a period in their history that I was interested in. I'd be happy to share any gamebooks that you found were missing from the members only section. I have...

49ers: 1979-1998
Bears: 1982-1992
Broncos: 1983-1998
Chargers: 1981
Cowboys: 1960-2021 (1 gamebook from 1967 is missing)
Dolphins: I saved a few miscellaneous years, but all their gamebooks are available at media.miamidolphins.com
Oilers: 1978-1979
Packers: 1960-2021 (4 gamebooks from 1960 are missing)
Raiders: 1970-1989
Redskins: 1981-1992
Steelers: 1969-1980

Most of these gamebooks came from our members only section, but I did fill in a lot of gaps by reaching out to teams and fellow researchers, especially with the Packers. I've lost track of which gamebooks were missing from the members only section, so your spreadsheet will help. Let me know what we need, and then maybe someone can help get these missing gamebooks posted.

Thanks for the response, Oszuscik. I've attached the link to my spreadsheet... I'll look at what you have versus what it looks like I need better copies of and we'll see where we're at.

Based on what I'm seeing in my spreadsheet vs with Oszuscik has listed...

Redskins 1981-1989, Packers 1960-1992, Oilers 1978-1979 all definitely need to be added to what we have in the members only section.

49ers, Bears, Broncos, Chargers, Cowboys (except 12/2/1979 vs NYG), Dolphins, Raiders and Steelers are about as complete as they can be for the time periods Oszuscik has listed.

The highlights of the most wanted list seem to be...
Bears (pre-1982), Redskins (pre-1981), Oilers (pre-1978), Saints, Falcons and Cardinals (pre-1983), all Bengals/Chiefs matchups pre-1988 games, several Chiefs 1984-1987 games, Bengals/Oilers matchups pre-1983, lots of Bengals games (pre-1982), Giants and Vikings (pre-1981), three 1980 Chargers games (vs. NYG, at Cin, at Wash) and some pre-1980 Colts games.
