Kirk Herbstreit & Charles Davis as NFL commentators

Both were strictly college football commentators before also doing NFL as well. With Kirk’s longer and heavier rep with college (perhaps the ‘Dick Clark of College Football’), I still find it difficult seeing him doing NFL. Charles I see more with college than NFL as well being that’s what he strict...

Re: What caused Tom Landry's three losing seasons at the end of his coaching career?

Despite not making it to a Super Bowl, I was quickly sick of Dallas winning in the early-'80s; especially their comeback wins - 'Dixie'-miracle and vs Miami in '81 in-particular; yes, at Philly in Wk#9 as well. I remember on the neighborhood sandlot asking one of the neighborhood kids, a Cowboys-fan...

Unique jersey numbers worn by some despite position played

Watching the ND@BYU game and seeing Cougars' QB, Bear Bachmeier, wearing #47 inspires this. Of course Otto Graham wore #60 early on until the NFL, early in his NFL career, instituted new rules to change that. Marion Motley wore #76 - a very strange # for a running back but also for a linebacker - or...

Re: Would the 4x SB-losing Buffalo Bills of the '90s have defeated a SB champion of another year?

I won't try putting on my thinking-cap over the three other AFC champs, but the '90 squad sure can beat some SB champs, especially ones this century. No, not the '13 Hawks nor '24 Eagles, but a-plenty they can beat. '70 Colts, '80 Raiders, '87 Redskins...they oughta best them as well ('88 Forty Nine...

Re: 2026 NFL Season wks 5 - 8

I’m a believer that bye weeks should be more condensed in and around the middle of the season. How about each of the four weeks from #8-thru-11 have eight teams take off and then all out the way? Yes, that means just twelve games those weeks instead of the full 16 slate. I think we’ll all survive fo...

Re: 2026 NFL Season wks 5 - 8

Chargers now 0-5????? Man is that franchise cursed! Jim has been a winner everywhere he's gone! I'd think by now, beginning of 'Year 3', the train would start rolling now if not having started rolling already; perhaps ‘Year One ’ as the case in Jim’s first year in San Fran, 2011! Maybe I'm wrong to ...
