Re: Your Unpopular Football Opinions
Don’t know if this is unpopular or not, but I have been thinking lately that if someone appears on a senior committee ballot as a finalist and doesn’t get in, that they shouldn’t appear again for three years (or some amount of years). That way, more players can at least have the opportunity to be de...

Re: 2026 NFL Free Agency And Transactions
Out of curiosity what’s your opinion of the players the Seahawks just lost in free agency, and how well they fit their new rosters?

A question on recordkeeping
Hi,
Out of curiosity, are there any plays that were counted as a turnover for the defense, but not the offense in the late 1930's and early 1940's?
I noticed huge discrepancies when I was calculating Score% for the teams in 1936-1940 and I had to make adjustments.

Re: Super Bowl II field logos
You can obtain a great restoration(film) of SB II from collectors at oldtimesports.net ... Actually, NFL Films themselves is rumored to have a mostly intact televised copy of SB II in its library. It was rumored to be included on the Greatest Games Series for the GB Packers but was rejected or buri...

Re: Any recent NFL TV broadcast footage discoveries?
One game I once saw a radio broadcast upload of, but that I would be intrigued to watch the actual footage of is the 1979 Bucs-Chiefs game where the Bucs clinched their first playoff berth. Another that would be cool is the Giants win over the Cardinals in 1970 where Fran Tarkenton had five passing ...

Re: Jim Plunkett VS Eli Manning
With the exception of his first season in which he split time with Kurt Warner, and his final season in which he split time with Daniel Jones, Eli threw double digit interceptions in ALL 14 of his other seasons. He even led the league 3 times. Aside from those two Super Bowl victory seasons, he nev...

My attempt to do Score% for 1936-1940
Hi All, I've stated before that my Score% metric goes back to 1941 because before that point there were no totals for punts that the defense was on the field for, as well as field goals missed on both sides for a few years. Well I decided that I wanted to try to calculate the metric going back to 19...

Re: Jim Plunkett VS Eli Manning
In my opinion, Eli's 2011 season is better than any of Plunkett's. (he helped New York get to 9-7 with a 25th ranked defense in addition to the playoff run to the Super Bowl title that year) I have seen people unironically say they would've given Eli the 2011 MVP, I don't think I could say that for ...

Re: Bob Griese VS Troy Aikman
Different eras of course but a good question. Aikman had ideal size and arm strength but Griese was more mobile and known for great ball handling. They both ran their offenses very well, though Aikman never had a wide receiver as smooth as Paul Warfield. Both extremely accurate, and dealt with adve...

The Origin of my Username
Hi All, Bit of a different topic today, but I just wanted to share the clip that is the namesake of my username. There was this late night sketch comedy program produced locally in the Seattle area called “Almost Live”. In 1994, they had this to say about the Seahawks: https://youtu.be/0LtcYq3u8FA?s...
