Re: 3 Most Perplexing Losses By Your Fav Team (60s, 70s, 80s)

The Cowboys losses to the Browns in the 1968 and 1969 were always perplexing to me. But Blanton Collier was a terrific coach. 1966 @ Eagles: Tim Brown had two long kickoff returns for touchdowns in a 24-23 defeat. 1975 Green Bay: inexplicably lost at home to a terrible Packer team. 1984 @ Bills: Bi...

Re: New Orleans Saints and NASA 1972-76

How insane is it that New Orleans hasn't drafted a QB in the first round since 1971 (Manning)?

Detroit @ Dallas - 1970 Divisional Round

Ridiculously anemic qb play in a game where weather was not a factor.

Munson: 5 of 12 for 48 yards. 0 TDs and 0 INTs.

Morton: 4 of 18 for 38 yards. 0 TDs and 1 INT.

Re: Larry Csonka

Re: NFL stadium quirks

It's amazing how much litter (hot dog wrappers?) was on the field back in the day.

Re: Replacing a Legend-Danny White in 1985

Can anyone ID this stadium? Maybe the Yale Bowl when the Giants had to play there for a few years?
