Professional Football Researchers Association Forum

I know this isn't a college football forum, and I know one game was a regular season game while the other is a post-season game, but I can't help to think of them both in the same light. The loser of the college game mentioned, especially if the loser is Ohio St (and even if it's by a TD, or two), w...

Great posts so far! I think the whole Namath making good on his guarantee in one of the greatest upsets in sports history catapulted the NFL to what it'd be in the '70s with that 'big bang' effect still being felt to this day. Even a simple 'moral victory', Jets bringing the Colts into OT but coming...

Now this is a thread that I feel should be revived! Going into that Chiefs@Rams affair, as stated in the OP of this thread, neither team was a recent regular contender leading up. On the other hand, NYG & San Fran in '90 were certainly contenders for some time. The '90 match was all defense and ...

On the 40th season anniversary of,,,"you know What", you see that da Bears are, so far, top-seed in the NFC! RAMS are 2nd! Can you imagine da Bears playing at home against them in the NFCCG, winning, and then playing against the... Patriots in the Super Bowl! And, just, MAYBE the Rams will...

For me I'm reminded of the 2001 season. I was super hyped for those playoffs all year long because I was sure we would get 2 matchups that I really wanted to see, Oakland vs Pittsburgh in the AFCCG, and Chicago vs St. Louis in NFCCG. Of course the tuck rule and the Eagles messed that up for me. Per...

THIS year's Panthers??

IMO, in the event or Bills not coming back, whether its at Pittsburgh or home against Houston in the AFCCG, Dolphins don't make the SB in '92; and Cowboys wallop whoever they play. Dolphins out-scoring the Bills in the '90 divisional, I guess, is their FWIW best shot. I think they beat a now-Bo-less...

Seeing both the Pats & Bears respectively ahead of each conference thus far, and many likely not seeing either of them as 'best' in their conference, inspires this thread. From Colts/Vikings in '70 to all the way thru last year's Chiefs/Eagles, and all in-between, who do you consider the weakest...

What if in 1993 instead of the Super Bowl being in the Georgia Dome the NFL went back to the old way where the team with the best record hosted the title game in their home stadium? Could the Cowboys have beat Buffalo in Buffalo in this scenario? Were the 90 Giants, 91 Redskins, (92 the Bills beat ...
