NFC East was better ... throughout the 1980s.

I know about Gregg, but the defense got worse under Wyche. After a 10 win season in 1986, the season was a disaster in 1987, with the team allowing the Niners to beat them on the last play of the game, after failing to punt. Wyche was nearly fired after that season. Like I said, a top offense undera...

1988- It should have been Marv Levy instead of Mike Ditka Actually, it should have been Sam Wyche. He took a team that had turmoil a year before and guided them to within seconds of a SB win. I disagree ... the Bengals should have been a SB contender going back to 1985. They even had a top defense ...

I remember watching a documentary about the Raiders and Athletics in Oakland and how it compared with the 49ers and Giants in SF. Of course both Bay football teams challenged for the SB in 1970-1972, while the Athletics win three in a row in baseball with one of the toughest teams, ever, despite a r...

Of course Jets in Jan 1969, Mets in Oct 1969 and Knicks in May 1970?

Weird that the Baltimore Colts, Orioles and Bullets all fell victim in postseason during this 17-month run ...

I like the Eagles getting Woolen. If he can learn from Fangio and play within the team concept, he could have a good year. The Eagles have been quiet so far. Coby Bryant should also play well in Chicago replacing Byard. Walker I feel, will have a good year in KC if he can stay healthy. Mahomes will ...

After losing free agents and failing Crosby for a trade, the Ravens sign Henrickson. Can he stay healthy? Geno Smith returns to the Jets ... I feel he can succeed with protection and healthy wideouts.

And so, two days into the legal tampering window before free agency officially starts, the biggest news wasnt a potential signing, but a trade that got rejected. The Ravens backed out of their deal with the Raiders for Maxx Crosby. Unlike the Packer's team doctor, that was ordered by their GM to pas...

RIP Matt Snell A huge signing for the AFL and Jets in 1964, the first year at Shea Stadium. Could have been more a star runner but became an unselfish team leader who knew he had to block and keep star acquisition, Joe Namath, upright for a passing offense that would put the team in position to win ...

And the Raiders now have 4 first round picks over the next two years (so far, at least). Add that to Ashton Jeanty and All-Pro Brock Bowers and they have a decent chance at being in the running a few years from now. With the Raiders ready to release Geno Smith, why not Smith come back to the Jets? ...
