Re: Most impressive/interesting achievement
In a 1942 game vs. Washington the New York Giants didn't get a first down [at the time touchdowns didn't count as first downs] , only had one yard rushing, and only completed one pass but won 14-7. That one completion went for a Touchdown.

Re: Obscure trivia

This would be the second victory of the season for the winning team, and their HC for this win was not their HC at season's beginning; and this very season would be the only season that he would ever at a...

As a Washington fan I still wish Snyder had never fired Schottenheimer. Even if he went 14-2 and lost in the first round as in San Diego that is still preferable to what we got.

Re: 2023/24 Super Bowl
If the NFL had a best of format it may become more of a war of attrition than who is the best team.
