The Cowboys have made all of their media guides and gamebooks available in PDF format, all the way back to 1960:

Fantastic! Thank you for posting this!

Correction: not all of the gamebooks are available yet. I was looking for one of the strike games, and it isn't there. Hopefully, this is an ongoing project, and all will be posted over time, but that's just an assumption.

This makes the Cowboys, Broncos (http://media.denverbroncos.com/section_ ... ion_id=120) and Dolphins (http://media.miamidolphins.com/history/1966/) that have at least most of their gamebooks online? Any others?

Lions, with 1965, 1969 and everything from 1971 on. Not sure why they don't have the other '60's guides: http://media.detroitlions.com/Media+Guides/

Seahawks: http://www.seahawksmedia.com/media-guides/ (from the beginning)

The Seahawks used to have most of their preseason gamebooks available as well. For some reason they took those down this year.

The Texans don't have an extensive history but they've also posted all of their gamebooks and media guides.

The Broncos recently posted most of their NFL Films video yearbooks. They are a little tricky to find. I suggest using the following search in Google and just replace the year with the one you want to see.

This is great! Thanks for posting!

I was checking missed FG distances for the Cowboys in 1964 and came across a Week 2 game against the Redskins where Landry seemed to apply the same alternating QB scheme he used with Morton and Staubach, alternating them on every down. In this game it was Don Meredith and John Roach, alternating on every play on most of the drives. This was the only 1964 game where I noticed Landry doing this, but in going thru the 1964 gamebooks I did notice he was also using the shotgun a few times; they were calling it that in the gamebook. If you are interested in the offensive strategies of Tom Landry, you might want to delve into these gamebooks.

49ers have their game books online too:

As I incorporated the 1970's Cowboys gamebooks into my gamebook database, and I'm pretty good at keeping up with the gamebook releases, I realized these are new gamebooks for me and I think they will need to be added to the seasonal gamebook compilations at the download sites at Members Only area. The 60's Dallas gamebooks we already had, and I'm not sure about the 1980's and later, but the 1970's Dallas games released by the Cowboys appear to be new to our Members Only area.
