I think Montana proved that he could play in less-than-ideal conditions in his final college game, the 1979 Cotton Bowl. It was the day after a surprise ice storm hit Dallas, and the wind chill was below zero. Montana missed the start of the 2nd half, as his body temperature fell to 96 degrees. He m...

Bill Belichick - 9 S.B. appearances (as H.C.), 6 Lombardis. Pete Carroll - a national championship at the college level and two S.B. appearances and 1 Lombardi Trophy. Nick Saban - 7 national championships at the collegiate level. All three out of a job within the span of (approximately) 24 hours. ...

I looked this 1983 Seahawks-Raiders game up and noticed something. Jim Plunkett, Marc Wilson, and Marcus Allen all threw TD passes for Los Angeles. I wonder now how many times has that happened since 1950 - three different teammates throw a TD pass in one game. I found a couple, both involving Detr...

Took a quick look at PFR list of longest receptions in history. Mike Wallace and Terrell Owens also had two 90-yard+ receptions in their careers. Aside from them and JuJu and Taylor, nobody else has done it more than once. PFR must only go back so far. Gaynell "Gus" Tinsley had a 97 yard ...

The 1962 Bears might be the only team to appear on both sides of the coin on this list.

As noted elsewhere, the Packers beat them by a cumulative 87-7 margin

1991 Bills 77, Colts 13

I'm sure several Bills have played for the Bills. Jim Brown played for the Browns, and probably more. When Colt McCoy inevitably (hopefully) gets to the Colts... that'll be a special one. Any saints play for the Saints? Anyone with "St." in their name? Anyone who could be defined as a rai...

It's also true that the Babe didn't play against any black players when he hit 60 home runs in 1927. That particular thing is also a 'non-starter' for me in relation to baseball. You don't really play against individual players in baseball. Its not like Babe Ruth hits the ball and then gets tackled...

I have a book about the Browns** & in it Belichick is quoted as saying that in his final year in Cleveland, the furor over the move just destroyed the team . But in each of his seasons prior to 95 the team was showing improvement. I think he would have been a winner in Cleveland I think today, ...
