I'd say they are probably more well rounded than those Packers, but point taken.GameBeforeTheMoney wrote: ↑Mon Dec 09, 2024 12:18 pmNow you've got me entertaining a new question - will the Chiefs be like the 2011 Packers?

The 1966 and '67 Dallas Cowboys were two plays away from being back-to-back NFL champs and playing in the first two Super Bowls.

I'll give you '67, but in 1966 even if they got the TD they couldn't go for 2 so their best case scenario would have been OTRichardBak wrote: ↑Mon Dec 09, 2024 4:39 pmCSKreager wrote: ↑Mon Dec 09, 2024 2:51 pmThey’re playing with fire week after weekRichardBak wrote: ↑Mon Dec 09, 2024 2:47 pm

Well, since we're in fantasy land, I have Dan Reeves hitting Bob Hayes on the halfback option for a long TD on the first play from scrimmage in OT. So, back-to-back titles.CSKreager wrote: ↑Mon Dec 09, 2024 5:26 pmI'll give you '67, but in 1966 even if they got the TD they couldn't go for 2 so their best case scenario would have been OTRichardBak wrote: ↑Mon Dec 09, 2024 4:39 pm

Joey Hetherton and Raquel Welch are also in that little fantasy from 1966-67, but I'm gonna keep that to myself.

The problem isn't that they're winning one-score games, it's that half of those have come from their opponent doing something stupid or a flag going their way. Also, most of them are like 19-17. Haven't seen them manage in a shootout yet.

Shades of Leon Lett ... poetic justice for the Bengals, as the refs miss an obvious facemask penalty on Joe Burrow by the Cowboys defense before the blocked punt. Without the muff, an easy Pokes win. Chase scores for the Bengals instead ...

In four weeks, two games that came down to missed fasemask penalties that were obvious ... the Vikings might have 12 wins.
Chase is about to be bank ... surprised the Bengals didnt extend him after the Ravens game?
Dowdle keeps getting better for the Cowboys, team him with Chubb from the Browns next year?
