Re: Oakland at Houston. Worst QB matchup in a playoff game?

In the 1977 playoffs, Minnesota had to go with Bill Lee because Tarkenton was injured. In the divisional round, Pat Haden started for the Rams. He had taken over for Joe Namath in the fifth game of the season. The Vikings led 7-0 after 3 quarters and won 14-7, with Lee attempting only 10 passes and...

Re: Best Games (or interesting matchups) that Never Happened

A 1968 NFL Championship Game between Baltimore and Dallas should have happened. They were both absolute powerhouses.

Re: 2023 PFRA convention roll call

I’ll be there representing the Great White North. I had a great time in Green Bay and was booked to come to Canton in both 20 and 21 but the pandemic made cross border travel too complicated. I’m staying until Tuesday. Can’t wait!

Re: Earl Morrall in 1968-Baltimore Colts

I'm leaning towards the theory that those trophies were awarded retroactively. It is the only thing that makes sense. And maybe it was not a big enough story for the wires (AP, UPI, NEA) to run with the story...(column space?, a big sports day?) not a big enough deal to move the needle. Glad you fo...

Re: Paul Krause-In Hall of Fame but with a Flaw

Paul Krause, like Carl Eller and Mick Tingelhoff, had his HOF inductions delayed for a ridiculous length of time because of their four losses in the SB. The Vikings pass defense was airtight during Krause’s time there and we’re going to criticize a free safety’s tackling. Please…

Jim Caldwell went 11-5, 7-9, 9-7 and 9-7 for a .563 winning percentage in his four years with the Lions…and then they fired him.

Re: Horsecollars

I don’t like when the horse collar penalty is called on a play where the ball carrier was in no danger of being injured by the tackle. I think there should be some judgment on the official’s part involved with making the call but I feel that way about a lot of ticky tacky safety rules.
