One of the reasons I could never make sense of SB V from the NFL highlight reels is that they don't take into account explaining the rule differences back then, specifically about field position. For example: the Colts went for it on 4th and 1 on the Cowboys 1. They didn't get it, but instead of...
I'm working with the Paley Center for Media to ensure the archived version of The Fugitive has the correct music. Someone there asked me if there was anything, anything at all, that I wanted to see. I said SB V. They were kind enough to show me where I could find it.
The first football game I can ever remember seeing was SB VI, the Cowboys first title. I was seven years old. When I got a little older and knew more about football, I asked my dad why the Cowboys, who were obviously a better team, lost SB V the year before to the Colts. My dad said something...
Listen to Cam's presser. You can hear Chris Harris talking about how they beat Cam. I think that's why he left. But he could have handled it better. He could have said, "Look, I don't really want to sit here and listen to Denver gloat. If the NFL wants to set this up with the teams separate, I'm...
Balance in the cosmos has been restored. Younger brother Eli no longer has more SB rings than older brother Peyton.
Denver's defense reminded me of the 1977 Doomsday defense that beat up Craig Morton and the Broncos. That game was never even close, even when the lead was only 6.
The root of my dislike for Belichick is simple: I don't want him breaking Landry's 20-consecutive-winning-seasons streak, the greatest record in all professional sports, IMHO.
Throwing the ball on second down when you could have milked the clock to two minutes with a run, then got it under 1:30 with another run on third down, was a critical error that nearly caused the Cards to lose that game. It wasn't the play call as much as the fact that Palmer should have seen...
My team is the Cowboys. The 49ners have always had a playoff rivalry with them dating back to the early days of the NFC Championship. When I first heard Kelly went to the Niners, I cheered, as I assumed it would mean a whole new era of ego-driven instability.
Does anyone think Chip Kelly is a...
I guess they fired him with one game left so they could get a jump on the other available coaching candidates out there. I'm kinda hoping Holmgren will go to SF.
