Re: Charlie or Charley Conerly?

I've always used Charley.

Of course, nfl.com and PFR still have Erny Pinckert as Ernie.

Re: Interesting Beattie Feathers game-by-game data - cool

Well, apparently everything pre-2003 is what is now gone - based on the pages for Tom Brady and Emmitt Smith. And even then are wrong dates for games from last ten years.

Re: Interesting Beattie Feathers game-by-game data - cool

As of today, all the historical game log data (as incomplete as it was) is completely gone from www.nfl.com.

Re: David Viti

It's because no obituary has been published for him by a newspaper or funeral home. Same thing goes for Mike Giddings who apparently died on July 27th.

Re: Tom Neville, rusher

Dess didn't get a rushing attempt because of the Tarkenton "dances around a bit." Plunkett probably should have a sack for 8 yards and Neville should have no rushing stats at all. But you have to realize there all kinds of errors in the official stats in the days before the stats were digi...
