Re: Vikings/Raiders Super Bowl X (1975)

In 1975 also the Raiders still didn't have John Matuszak, and Dave Rowe wasn't a starter (he came from the Chargers during the season). By 1976, the Raiders moved to the 3-4 defense and Otis Sistrunk replaced Horace Jones at RDE.

Re: 2026 Hall of Fame Seniors - Last 52 Ranked by Position Group

Re: Something dumb that you remember about watching the NFL

I remember when the players wore pink cleats on October to support Breast Cancer Awreness Month. The officials also used pink whistles and pink flags. The problem was that some players also used pink towels, so when they fell from a player, it appeared that the refs had thrown a flag on the field. W...

Re: Coaches and GM's who will be fired - 2025 Season

What about Kevin Stefanski? I don't think he even will finish the season, with his handling at QB.

Re: Teams that couldn’t win in certain places

Seeing that tomorrow the Rams and 49ers will play, it's worth noting that the Rams won at San Francisco 12 straight years from 1969-1980, and then from 1981-1998 the 49ers won 17 of 18 games at Anaheim or St. Louis.

Re: Your Favorite NFL Announcers

LIke many, I liked very much Pat Summerall and John Madden TOGETHER, and also Dick Enberg and Merlin Olsen, you knew that the game was must-see with those two crews (nowadays, I don't know if is due to the internet, I don't have that feeling with the current announcers). I have heard (he was before ...
