The players of which NFL draft class have thrown the most passing touchdowns? 2...

Yes, I treat the '75 Steelers as a one-loss team. I think they are the best team of the modern era. Just imagine if their special teams was just a bit better? Just imagine if their special teams was MORE THAN just a bit better?? I haven't said it yet, but comparing both "for their era, adjusti...

A very Parcellian quote indeed. He absolutely hit on it. They were a talented, well coached team, a team that can beat anyone at any time during the regular season. I don't think those Bronco teams from the 80's were that talented, especially the 87 team. Elway pretty much carried them to the Super...

I'm eager to hear how a 14-2 team that routed its three playoff opponents by an average score of 34-14 -- and that had playoff wins the season before and the season after -- can be considered a fluke. Here’s the thing about the 1991 Redskins: Some people think highly of them and others don’t. Those...

We hear all the time about Joe Gibbs winning 3 Super Bowls with 3 different QB's. I think he gets a bit too much credit for those titles considering 2 of them were in asterisk strike seasons and 1 of them was basically a fluke year There were also different running backs for the big game too (John ...

With the 88 49ers, my what-if is different: They were two miracle plays (Hail Jerry, Young's crazy run) from 4-7 What if they lose those Giants/Vikings games? Even at 8-8/9-7, they'd have missed out entirely How differently do the 88 playoffs play out with no SF? if they lost those games, they woul...

I'm going to guess that the answer to #5 is 1996: Terrell Owens, Marvin Harrison, Eric Moulds, Keyshawn Johnson, Terry Glenn, Eddie Kennison, Amani Toomer, Bobby Engram. And #14's answer is 2011: J.J. Watt, Von Miller, Cam Heryward, Cam Jordan, Justin Houston, Ryan Kerrigan, Robert Quinn. You are c...

Awhile back I mentioned a number of records that I think are practically impossible to break. Well one of those was the GM’s who took part in the 1988 NFL draft who went 67 picks before selecting a college quarterback. That being Ohio State quarterback Tom Tupa. That was 13 picks into round three. I...

Good speculation 7D ... yet I also feel that despite a great gameplan by Belichick against the Bills in the SB, the 49ers defense was better than the Giants and would have shut-down the Bills as well. Yes, the Niners running game was lacking but if OJ Anderson could succeed against the Bills, why n...
