Remember kids. Never win 15 games in an NFL season. I don't know.. it seemed to work out OK for the '84 49ers and '85 Bears... What a heartbreak/shocker for the Lions and their fans... Jayden played great for me in Fantasy this season but I never expected him to make it to the conference championsh...

When my research pulled me from western PA to Ohio, I thought Parratt was going to wind up being Ohio's Brailler, but he’s proving me wrong. Evidence supports Parratt as a top Ohio League player (1908 comes to mind so far), but similar to Sacksteder, the issue is the back position is so competitive...

Very valid point.

This reminded me of an old thread here...

It was before my time but I would've loved to have seen "The Thanksgiving Day Massacre" in which the Lions upset the otherwise perfect Packers in 1962. Games that I remember seeing would include: The incredible victory by the Dolphins over the (also) otherwise undefeated Bears on 12/2/85 T...

Are you familiar with the concept of synergy?

1979 Rams defense allowed -7 yards of offense -- in a dome ... facing a good offense.

Wow...

That's just... embarrassing.

I think 49ers fans (like me) would love another crack at the '57 Playoffs. No second half meltdowns would be appreciated... That was a darn good team and a very memorable one, too. John Henry Johnson was gone (to the Lions, no less... arg) but they still had 3/4s of the Million Dollar Backfield with...

Might be this one from the first post? Cofer from 60 yards Minnesota Vikings at San Francisco 49ers playoff game - January 1st, 1989 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WvcbdmkujfE Thank you and apologies to Mr. Turney... I read through that list several times looking for something between 1984 and 198...

I'm not having any luck finding it but there was another missed free kick attempt by the 49ers during the Bill Walsh/Joe Montana era. I don't remember the opponent or year but I vaguely recall the circumstances. It was the end of the first half and the Niners lined up in what looked like a kick off ...

I have a question, when is someone eligible for the HoVG? I thought Tasker was still eligible for the PFHoF, so I didn't nominate him. I sure voted for him, cause I think he deserves that and a whole lot more. But I'm confused as to eligibility rules. A player becomes eligible for the HoVG after th...
