Jaguars Texans Rivalry
We have had a few posts on rivalries lately. How about a look at some of the weaker rivalries? Jaguars and Texans have been in the same division since the Texans were created, 2002. So they have played 43 game against each other. Historically, going into those games the two teams have combined for a...

Re: Notable Chiefs/Dolphins matchups
How about Week #15, 1981? Despite Steve Fuller clearly outplaying Wood-Strock, KC at home loses their fifth in seven games thus essentially get eliminated from playoff contention. Both offenses, Joe Delaney included, struggled in a 17-7 final. Delaney got hurt in the first half after rushing for 23...

Re: Two games involving winless teams
In answer to the original question, was there ever a week where there was more than one meeting of 0-3 teams, in 1996 there were THREE. Seattle/Tampa, Jets/Giants, and Arizona/New Orleans. 2020 featured a Thursday night matchup of Broncos/Jets and a Sunday matchup of Texans/Vikings. 2019 featured th...

Re: Andy Reid vs Tom Landry vs Don Shula
I'm less impressed with Landry. Mainly because I think the Flex was a crappy pass defense. You can't win with sacks very often. Felx a run defense with expansive keys and assignments and agree it wasn't ideal for pass defense, but the reason was it limited pass rush by having 2 guys off the line of...

Re: Andy Reid vs Tom Landry vs Don Shula
I'm less impressed with Landry. Mainly because I think the Flex was a crappy pass defense. You can't win with sacks very often. The Ice Bowl is a case in point. Eight sacks, but the Packers still won with passing on a poor field. Cowboys were more concerned with being flashy and innovative than goin...

Re: Worst RBs/WRs with a 1000 yard season?
It may be a non-starter for you, but it's also the truth. It's less relevant when solely looking at home runs, compared to overall effectiveness, since it's limited to the pitcher, and a bit to the catcher. But it's not about diminishing the Babe's accomplishments. It's about pointing out that Ruth...

Re: The best-ever Packers squad to not win-it-all?
I still think Lockette should have at least knocked the damn ball down ... he didnt do his job and Wilson didnt get bailed out for the high pass ... could this interception keep him out of the HOF? Wilson should still make the HOF. One championship, another SB loss, 9 playoff wins, typically that s...

Re: Packers Saints rivalry
Correct me, but I believe that in the 70s-80s every time that the Saints traveled to Wisconsin to play the Packers the game was held in Milwaukee. I recall two or three games (including the one when Tony Galbreath and Wes Chandler handled the kicking and punting duties). Correct. The Saints didn't ...
