Re: Marv Levy’s Chiefs
In his autobiography "Where else would you rather be", Marv sheds a lot of light on the Chiefs years. Apparently he and Jack Steadman didn't see eye to eye on a few personnel moves. It was a while ago when I read it so I forget the details but one of which was at QB Marv preferred Fuller o...

Re: '60s AFL Chargers
The 1963 Chargers would have given the Bears a run for their money in a hypothetical Super Bowl. Maybe or maybe not the leagues as a whole were on par talent wise by that season, but I feel the too teams were about even. This book is a great read... https://www.amazon.com/Uncrowned-Champs-Diego-Cha...

Re: Coaches who didn’t deserve to win COY
Of all the NFL's postseason awards this is the one that bugs me the most. It too frequently gets awarded to the first year coach who improves his team 4-5 games from the previous season and sneaks them into the playoffs. To answer the original question, I could probably go back through history and f...

What does Rate+ calculate? I can't find it on their site.

Re: 1981 AFC East discussion
I'll agree this is one of the more interesting divisions since the merger. The Colts being one of the worst 2-14 teams ever and the Patriots being one of the "best" 2-14 teams ever. I don't think anyone expected the drop off for either team. Especially the Patriots. Bert Jones was deterior...

Re: Any recent NFL TV broadcast footage discoveries?
There's highlights of that rainy quagmire of a game on YT. Not the whole thing though.One game I once saw a radio broadcast upload of, but that I would be intrigued to watch the actual footage of is the 1979 Bucs-Chiefs game where the Bucs clinched their first playoff berth.

Re: Jim Plunkett VS Eli Manning
Hard to say. I think I would give Eli the ever so slight edge. Plunkett's early career struggles are probably "lower" than any portion of Manning's career. The two championships each are a wash. Their respective best seasons are about even, maybe Plunkett slightly better.

Re: Jim Plunkett VS Eli Manning
With the exception of his first season in which he split time with Kurt Warner, and his final season in which he split time with Daniel Jones, Eli threw double digit interceptions in ALL 14 of his other seasons. He even led the league 3 times. Aside from those two Super Bowl victory seasons, he neve...

Re: 2026 Hall of Very Good Nominations
Too small a window ? Or always this way? Seemed longer before ... There is nothing to stop a member from doing their research outside of the nominations period, then turning in a nomination when the window opens. If you want to spend (let us say as an example) eight months searching for a candidate...
