Re: Kurt Warner first ballot or not?
I tend to blame the other 10 guys on the field +1 on the sideline I just rewatched that play. Amazing ending. I honestly think Harrison only scored because of the combined efforts of Fitzgerald and Breaston. If Fitzgerald hadn't grabbed Harrison, Breaston would have knocked Harrison out at the one,...

Re: Another puzzler for today
1967 Colts technically fit the description as well.

Re: Kurt Warner first ballot or not?
Warner could never be held down in a playoff game. In the 2000 wild card against New Orleans, he threw two interceptions and found himself down 31-7 with 12 minutes to play in the 4th quarter. 10 minutes later, it was 31-28...and that was even with him throwing his third interception. Warner would h...

Re: Kurt Warner first ballot or not?
Not going to list the stats here, but he was noticeably less effective in Championship games and Super Bowls. He was lucky to even make the Super Bowl he won. He had possibly the worst game of his career in the 1999 NFC Championship game, then struggled again in the Super Bowl. Compare those two ga...

Re: Davis versus Bettis for HOF
Davis probably did have the best year ever in 1998. That said, in his three best seasons he finished 2nd, 2nd, and 1st in rushing. In Bettis' three best seasons, he finished 3rd, 3rd, and 2nd in rushing.

Re: 9-point win margin possible in overtime?
I didn't think they would blow the whistle in midplay. One of the only times I saw that was in the final 2 minutes of the Green Bay-Buffalo game. Rodgers was stripped of the ball, Eddie Lacy picked it up in the end zone and began a mad dash to get the ball out, but the refs blew the play dead. I was...

Re: 9-point win margin possible in overtime?
As soon as the defense (Team A) takes possession, the game is over. So there is no Int Return from within the field of play for an OT TD as you stated. If the Team B QB commits a turnover within his own end zone, either by fumble, or throws an interception, where the defense (Team A) gains possessi...

Re: Tom Bennett: The Pro Style (1976 book)
This particular book and The Pro Football Chronicle are my two favorite football books. I finally got a used copy of The Pro Football Chronicle off of Amazon-- I had thumbed through it in a library many years ago, but couldn't remember the title. Great stuff about the highlights and the oddities of...

Re: Cornell Green (Cowboy DB) Question
Are there any other non-kickers who played for ten years in the NFL but did not play college football? Big Daddy Lipscomb played service ball for the Marines in the early-50's, but he did not play college football. He had a 10-year NFL career. The Cowboys and Gil Brandt signed a number of players w...
