Re: Who was better: Bill Cowher or Mike Tomlin?

I looked fairly fast but the only season of Cowhers 15 seasons where that division had 3 teams above .500 was 2000 while Tomlin had 7 of 19 seasons with the division having 3 teams higher than .500

Cowher was less likely to loose by a large margin in the playoffs compared to Tomlin.

Re: Best teams ever for each franchise

2000 Titans better than 1999. They gave up 133 less points. 155 point differential compared to 68 That said the 1961 Oilers may be better than them. Outgained their opponents by over 2000 yards. 271 point differential. I think that is the 2nd best point differential behind 07' Patriots. And yes this...

Re: 1979 Redskins vs. 1980 Patriots

Although he's obviously no slouch in the regular season, Riggins, in the playoffs, is a nice weapon.
It's a shame that Fugett didn't stay healthy. Although Donny Warren did an ok job good job filling in with 26 catches but 0 TDs. Fugett had 3 TDs on 10 catches.

Draft Day Movie and the 1998 NFL Draft

I haven't heard any mentions about the comparison to Draft Day (2014) with Ryan Leaf and the 1998 draft? QB Leaf with some problems. Just like the movie QB going through the draft. The Cardinals traded their first round #2 for the Chargers first round #3, the Chargers 2nd round pick in 1998, the 199...

Re: Greatest Season of the ‘60s, ‘70s, ‘80s, and ‘90s

1981- the sea change year. Legendary draft class, rise of the 49ers and Giants, end of the Raiders/Steelers hegemony New blood like the Jets and Bengals, Vikings and Rams fell off The start of Gibbs first tenure. Starting 0-5, outgaining their opponents by ~500 yards but going -15 in turnovers. The...

Re: 2025 NFL season, Wks #10 thru #13

Vrabel is an overrated coach getting fat off a weak schedule just like he did in Tennessee The differences in the schedule between Buffalo and New England is just games. New England gets the Raiders, Titans and Giants while the Bills get the Chiefs, Texans and Eagles. Yes those two games, there is ...

Re: Joe Gibbs' 3 Super Bowls- a great achievment or an asterisk?

Half their wins were against non-playoff teams (CIN, CLE, PIT, Phoenix 2x, Giants twice, Philly) I don care if they were 10-6, Philly didn’t make the playoffs; Giants were aging, Cardinals were the Cardinals, Dallas had no defense in 1991 The NFC East of 91 is one of the most overrated divisions in...
