Dick Rehbein scouted Brady at Michigan and told his wife he had found the next Joe Montana.

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. I saw that game on TV. I was the sports editor of a small paper in Ohio at the time and I visited my family in Green Bay for Thanksgiving...

Agree with you @TodMaher. I don't think it could be half the distance penalty from the 10 as we all know a Touchback comes out to the 20 yard line. I have contacted Pro Football Reference to see if they are willing to contact the NFL about it. If the infraction was committed at the 10-yard line, th...

Paul Brown never won another playoff game without Otto Graham, yet no one questions his place on the Mt Rushmore of greatest ever, coaches. I would. Trading Milt Plum for Jim Ninowski because you got in an argument with him is "How to Not Win Playoff Games for Dummies" Yeah, look at all t...

Definitely carries the team in some games and loses it in others. Besides Mahomes, if you want a guy who never seems to be the reason his team wins or loses, CJ...

Don't forget Orlando Pace was on that team, too.... 3rd down conversions vs Rams were very low in every game. Opp winning percentage - I've said it before and I"m just going to say it one last time with more detail - I just don't think that's the best statistic. First, of course the best teams...

Here are things that cannot be blamed on luck: Interceptions Fumbles Dropped passes Missed kicks Muffed kicks Penalties Here are things that can be blamed on luck: Coin tosses A missed kick that is blown just wide at the very last instant by an inexplicable gust of wind (if this happens in a playoff...
