I miss those carefree days of gratuitous, unmonitored violent styles of play.


My fave play in the history of the NFL: "Knocking out the Louisiana Dimwit" (1976):

Tatum was Have you read his book, "They Call Me Assassin"? It's a good read and describes the Raider teams of the 70's quite well. He also talks about the "Stingley hit". Jack passed away not too long ago.

Nice post D-A. Perhaps some of the younger fans on this board will watch it and see what the game was like 35 years ago.

NFL Top 100 Players # 7 -Reggie White - YouTube

Wonder how far behind this guy Ware is...
Ware has 95 sacks so far, White finished with...198. Yeesh, let's see how many Bruce Smith had. 200
105 sacks to go, I say Ware gets there if he can stay healthy, dude already has 95 sacks in his first 108 games and will probably have his second career 20+ sack season this year.

I guess i'm in the 1%, I don't hate the Steelers at all, they are one of the best run franchises in the NFL, if not the best, and they have 6 Superbowl's to back that up... but i do despise RapistBurger & Harrison for his dirty play...

Lions
Browns
Jaguars
Texans
Hmm, the top two teams on this list really have no excuse for 0 Super Bowl appearances, at least the bottom two are recent expansion teams.

Well technically the original Browns did win a Superbowl once they moved to Baltimore. But yea, 0 Superbowl appearances under the Browns name. And I dont see any coming in the near future.

I think the fact that we are the healthiest team in the league has something to do with it.

The Jaguars need to sell 5,500 tickets by 1:00pm today to avoid their first blackout since 2009.

Since I'm on vacation, I'm considering going.

The Browns haven't any Super Bowls but do have 4 NFL Championships and 10 Championship Game appearances. The league started in 1920 not in 1966 (season of the 1st Super Bowl). Changing the name of the Title game doesn't eraticate 45 years of football from the record books.

Technically...NO we didn't. The Ravens represent the city of Baltimore and in no way, shape or form represent the Cleveland Browns or the city of Cleveland.

The city of Baltimore wasn't awarded a "former franchise" SB Championship when the Colts beat the Bears a few years ago. When the Indianapolis Colts wanted to add Johnny Unitas (former Baltimore Colt Great) to their Stadium Ring of Honour, Unitas told them NO, as he and his teammates represented the city of Baltimore and could care less about the Indianapolis Colts....."Johnny U" understood the meaning of loyalty and the ridiculous notion that keeping a team's nickname when relocating a franchise somehow keeps that team associated with the former city it represented. This now concludes my .

The Colts have not held a lead since October 9th. It's the longest stretch a team has gone without a lead since 1990.

I always laugh when the colts try to say they represent the success that happened in baltimore.
