Re: Worst draft classes for a team
1967 Falcons, coming off an expansion year, had NO ONE from their draft make the team. Interesting. The 67 Saints had a draft that I didn't really understand. They ended up getting a few good players, but their first two picks were Bo Burris and Les Kelley. Burris was a QB who the Saints had planne...

Re: Best ever Forty Niners team?
What people don't see is it takes a lot of luck with these dynasties. UCLA cheated, but they played in a weak era, and they got lucky several times. 10 titles in 12 years....luck. That's an interesting take. And 1973 Indiana had the most reprehensible person in college basketball history (Dave Blis...

CHOG concept
Putting a new concept out there...the Charlie Hall of Good (CHOG). Criteria to be eligible for the CHOG is as follows: *Must have been in the NFL (including AAFC/AFL) for 10+ seasons. *Must have started for 9 consecutive seasons. *Must have never won a postseason game. *Must never have received any ...

Re: E.J. Holub
I would bet there are more players than E.J. who started Super Bowls at more than one position. Ronnie Lott comes to mind (CB 81&84; S 88&89). However, I don't know if there was anyone who started on offense on one occasion and defense on another... anyone? Here is some hasty research: Mike...

Re: What's the biggest football moment you witnessed in person?
I saw Aaron Glenn return a missed FG for a 104-yard TD. I think its still the record (?).

Re: 1983 Chargers
I’ve been watching a lot of games from the 1983 Chargers. They are a fascinating team to me... This is a very good write-up. It seems to me that you've done a few of these before, right? If so, I think it would be worthwhile to collect them and have them printed in the Coffin Corner. I think they'd...

Re: Joe Thomas with 49ers
A few thoughts on Thomas with the 49ers: *After the way Thomas alienated everyone in Baltimore, most people thought his days as an NFL GM were over. It was thought that Eddie DeBartolo was the only owner to have interest in Thomas, because Eddie was new to the league and somewhat ignorant. *Thomas h...

Re: NFL "what-if" scenarios thread
Had Baltimore won their division in 1971 like they should have, a very interesting match-up in KC for the playoffs. Due to the weather and Municipal Stadium, Unitas I believe, would have had a good throwing day with the Colts winning a close, defensive battle. It would be an interesting matchup.......

Re: Seniors
That might be true to an extent. But also - and we see this all the time - a guy is fantastic on one team and isn't on another. Jackson's career - he was solid overall with several teams. And that was over quite a long period of time. Clearly though, like if he made a game-winning play in the NFC C...
