Re: 1950's Detroit Lions

Plum might have been the first example of how overrated passing statistics can be. He won two supposed "passing efficiency titles" but was traded for obvious reasons -- not clutch enough in big games. Could he have been better calling his own plays? Possibly, but even in Detroit, his leas...

Re: Fair Catch kicks -- Quirky Research link

I'm not having any luck finding it but there was another missed free kick attempt by the 49ers during the Bill Walsh/Joe Montana era.

I believe part of it was wanting to be closer to his home in Pennsylvania. I bet he wished he could take it back and grab 3 more rings. He would have made those teams a bit better too. Plus the extra money. 1966 season 15k for winning Super Bowl 1. 8600 for beating Dallas In 1964, the year Ringo was...

Re: Rookie trivia

Was thinking someone from the USFL but my man Gary Clark came up short with 72. Dwight Clark and Dave Parks did it their 2nd year.

Re: Will Now Be The Time For Jim Tyrer?

It should only be about their football career imo. George Preston Marshall is a prime example. Granted in his time quite a few thought he was moral.
Commissioners who ignored concussions is another example.

Lowest yards per sack offense?

Came across this - 2008 Patriots 4.6 yds per sack. Has to be a record low or close to it

btw Cassel career 5.5 yds per sack
