What was odd is that Knox still had a year on his contract -- which is why he had to ask to talk to Seattle. Oh wow. I did not know that. Yeah, it was a 6 year $1.2 million deal, I think. Interestingly, Knox was not fired by the Rams --- but Knox saw writing on the wall. Rams talked to Don Coryell ...

Good info John but I don't understand how Ralph Wilson could be upset by close playoff losses, this team hadn't done anything since a winning season in 1975. Maybe he felt he gave Knox enough time but it all goes back to Ferguson. Was he the type of QB that could take them all the way? At least Plu...

Does anyone know the circumstances around Knox's departure from Buffalo? Ralph Wilson lowballed him on a new contract. Seattle offered more. Knox asked permission to talk to Seattle.

Les Steckle was 38 and the Vikings thought he'd be a long-term coach, they thought he was the next Tom Landry. Jerr...

The numbers on pro-football-reference come from Total Football, so presumably their original source was the Elias Bureau. I guess they'd been sitting on the revised numbers for years, waiting for somebody to pay for them. SHows that the "Official Encyclopedia of the NFL" is the most accur...

Only guessing, but yes, I think he will be one of the three.
