I have the details of this game on another post.

Only Punt Returns for the Chicago Cardinals were good in the 30 to 20 home game loss to the New York Giants. This game was at the future home for the Minnesota Vikings. For the Giants Charlie Connerly, Frank Gifford, and Don Heinrich completed 17 of 23 passes for 274 yards and three touchdowns. Jerr...

hicago had a 24 to 0 lead over the Eagles in the early third quarter. John Roach threw a touchdown pass to John David Crow and Bobby Jo Conrad kicked a field goal. After this came big plays from special teams and the defense. –Jimmy Hill returned a blocked field goal 77 yards for a touchdown; Night ...

The Packers defeated the Cleveland Brown 28 to 21 on the Sunday before Thanksgiving. This was one of the Packers best efforts in the Lombardi era. Thanks to terrible placekicking the Packers finished at 8-5-1. Cleveland was the NFL Champion defeating the Baltimore Colts 27 to 0.

gainst the Panthers, the Eagles had their continuing problems with scoring in the first quarter.  Fully expected is that this will catch up with them at some point in the next four games, the Playoffs, or both.  I remember the Birds leaving points on the field in three games during that six-game win...

The games was really close so Philadelphia has allot to work on. There were two big plays that hurt. (1) Jake Elliot missed a 52 yard field goal attempt, which could have cost the game. On the last drive, had the Panthers scored a touchdown the Eagles still would have been ahead by one point with al...

2004 Pittsburgh Steelers The three games below were all at Heinz Field. Before Week 6 the Steelers were 5-1 and the New England Patriots were 6-0. The Steelers defeated the Patriots 34 to 20. The next week the Philadelphia Eagles came to Pittsburgh with a 7-0 record. Pittsburgh had a real easy time ...

It was really fun watching the Philadelphia Eagles 37 to 20. Since they are using Saquon Barkley so much, I am hoping for one or even two meaningless games to rest the regulars and experiment with plans for 2025. I fondly remember the losses-two in 2004 to the Rams and Bengals and the loss in the fi...

For years there were attempts to relocate the Chicago Cardinals. Finally they moved to St Louis after 1959. Restrictions in those days meant there were no televised games if even one team was at home. CBS could not televise a game within a 75 mile radius of the location. If both teams were away, the...

I think we can say the Bears let us down. Injuries are always big and of course the titles go to those teams that avoid them. I have seen the NFL grow from 12 games in the 50s to 32 now. The talent is stretched even more so injuries draining a team's roster are common. I really don't think the offic...
