Re: Kirk Cousins (R.I.P. Vikings career?) - How did he do?
Yikes. For a second I thought he had passed away :o Cousins did exactly how I thought he would in Minnesota. A good to sometimes very good QB who will have great games here and there. Over the course of a season he will a player who makes the team better, win more games than he loses (50-37-1) and h...

Re: random Overtime/Kicker question
The other candidate for worst MNF game at that point would have been 1975 Jets at Chargers. Namath is benched for JJ Jones for partying too much and the 1-11 Chargers beat the 3-9 Jets 24-16. I humbly submit last night's Bears-Vikings game for consideration as worst MNF game ever. https://www.pro-f...

Re: John Madden
To me NBC will always be the AFC channel and CBS the NFC channel. You knew FOX was gonna cartoon things up when they got the NFC package and go overboard with the graphics, forced comedic skits, over the top personalities and Hollywood nonsense. Even without Madden I can't see FOX not succeeding. Th...

Re: The Stupidity Of Thursday Night Football
The end goal, probably, is an 18-game schedule with two bye weeks and a game on every night of the week. I'm sure a scheduling wizard could see to it that no team has fewer than six days' rest between games. It would destroy the rhythm of a football season that we've known for a century, but big de...

Re: John Madden
He was this big burly guy who came across as goofy and harmless...a bit of an oddball but in an endearing way. He did go over the top and play up that Madden cartoon character personality much like Terry Bradshaw did when going from CBS to FOX. He always seemed to have funny and sometimes bizarre ra...

Re: random Overtime/Kicker question
Neil O'Donoghue did it in that very year, 1983, in a Monday Night Football game, Cardinals vs. Giants. Thanks. That's pretty incredible, although not surprising that O'Donoghue is the guy who 'achieved' it. I think if someone is keeping track of most game-winning FGs, missed, career.....then O'Dono...

Re: "New" Hail Mary footage
There was also a liquor bottle thrown from the stands that knocked out an official once Minnesota got the ball back. Not sure if that guy was ever identified eitherRRMarshall wrote: ↑Thu Nov 09, 2023 6:01 pm I still want to know who threw the orange on the field after the play. Everyone watching on TV thought it was a penalty flag!

Re: 1985 49ers
What went wrong for SF in 1985? Again when you go from #1 scoring defense to #2 that shouldn’t mean a 5 win dropoff! They had some very uncharacteristic early season losses. Opening week to Minnesota where they turned it over like 7 or 8 times. A 3 point loss to a bad Saints team and a 2 point loss...
