That was so far back I didn't even think about that. Was home field advantage a thing in the 1940's with crowds? Alas, it was a home team getting wrecked to the nth degree.ChrisBabcock wrote:Worst shutouts, as in, aside from 73-0?

Why is Steve Wisniewski seemingly stonewalled for the HOF?
Steve Wisniewski made eight Pro Bowls teams, was 1st Team All-Pro twice, and 2nd Team All-Pro six times in 13 years and missed only two games. Why can't he make a breakthrough???

What are the worst shutouts in NFL history?
Off the top of my head I can't think of too many big on the road shutouts. Getting shutout at home against an opponent in blowout fashion just seems like the ultimate insult. 1987 Browns at Steelers winning 51-0 and 1985 Bears at Dallas winning 44-0 are what come to mind. And both of those losers ma...

Re: Ken Stabler VS Steve Young
A lot to unpack here. First, not a big fan of 'media buzz'. Mariucci had been with the Niners for two seasons and compiled records of 13-3 and 12-4. Not sure why any team would fire a coach after only two seasons when the guy has a 25-7 record. The reason Holmgren went to Seattle was he wanted tota...

Re: Ken Stabler VS Steve Young
Sorry Ness, but the Niners were one and done in both 1995 and 1996 to Favre and GB, which makes that 98 win, sweeter for Young. You're right about 1995. I forgot. Not 1996 though. They beat the Eagles 14-0 in the wild card. Steve suffered messed up ribs in that game, and couldn't go the next week a...

Re: Ken Stabler VS Steve Young
Young had the 1998 comeback against the Packers, that was his one playoff comeback. Other than that and the 6 TDs in the Super Bowl, his performance in playoff games was underwhelming, disappointing from a rate standpoint. Actually if you look at the QBs that were in the playoffs around that time, ...

Re: Ken Stabler VS Steve Young
Steve Young's game-winning TD pass to Terrell Owens in the 1998 NFC Wild Card game is one of the hallmarks of NFL history, and a staple of NFL Films. I think that's a bit of an oversell. It was just a wild card game, the refs Rob Lytle'd an obvious Jerry Rice fumble that would have ended the game i...

Re: Ken Stabler VS Steve Young
I think Steve Young maximized his great supporting cast, whereas Stabler at times was the reason his team lost. But...other than his two wacky runs, Young wasn't really a part of 'great moments in NFL history', while Stabler had several great moments. Steve Young's game-winning TD pass to Terrell O...

Your opinion on my #1 dream SB matchup 2000 Ravens/Rams
This is a SB I really wanted to see, but alas it didn't happen. I hate the Rams, but that 1999-2001 squad was just marvelous on offense. The 2000 campaign was clearly the weakest due in large part to their defense that just completely fell off from the previous year. However their offense, at least ...

Every team's best/worst season in the SB era spotlighted
This was done via NFL Throwback's YouTube channel. Some interesting choices. Didn't think they would choose they 1984 49ers team over the 1989 49ers team, but I admit I go back and forth on those myself. They choose 2004 as the worst in franchise history, but I'd go with 1978 due to all of the stori...
