Interesting. I noticed awhile ago they've had individual sack totals in box scores for playoff games dating back to the 1940s. I wonder who they would cite as sources if anyone asked. You can thank John Turney and Nick Webster for that information. From Yahoo Sports today: "Updated research cr...

Every year someone has a complaint about the process, or someone's favorite hasnt been nominated. Geezer Louise ... The process isn't exactly transparent: You submit five names, and maybe you include some justifications for your selection, or maybe you don't, but you don't know whether those justif...

I believe Ken was referring to the gamebook for the game Cliff mentioned in his column, the 1965 NFL Championship game in which he noted the work of the PRFA in archiving gamebooks - it is the last question-and-answer of the column (if I am speaking out of turn, Ken, please correct me). I see :-) Y...

I submitted his name to Andy earlier this morning for the 2021 HoVG, along with three others (two of which he wrote were already there).

Packers had Dilweg, Hutson, Howton, Dowler, McGee, Dale, Lofton, Sharpe, Freeman, Driver, Jennings, Jones, Cobb, Nelson, Adams ... I loved Brooks but injury prone. Jefferson was just briefly ...

All time Green Bay Herber/Isbell/Starr/Favre/Rodgers

I would add Red Dunn to the Packer list, who called signals and was the primary passer in Lambeau's Notre Dame box offense (and has four NFL championships) ... Dunn/Herber/Isbell/Starr/Favre/Rodgers.

Packers had a nice 30ish year run from '53-'84 that was basically Ringo > Bowman > McCarren. Add Charley Brock in the '40s and George Svendsen in the '30s (albeit briefly).
