EVIL~! alkeiper 0 Report post Posted December 31, 2005 What would the weather conditions be like for '85 Bears v. University of Ditka. Like what if a hurricane rolled in...... How many Gold Gloves would Tommy Herr have won if he wasn't playing at the same time as Ryne Sandberg? It's hard to say. Herr would have still needed to outperform Steve Sax and Glenn Hubbard to win the award. After 1988 Roberto Alomar would've been in the mix as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's one of the things that makes me hate the Lakers so much where they show all the bandwagon celebrities trying to get on camera. So this ESPN Hollywood show is like the worst show ever for me. What was horrible was having two biased celebrities(that dude from Desperate Housewives that is from Texas and Snoop Dogg) giving their analysis on the game. Then they say "we'll have a full celebrity recap the day after the game!" Yeah nobody cares what celebrities were watching football. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mik 0 Report post Posted January 3, 2006 I don't know what's more interesting... The fact that Tom Tupa was the first QB drafted in 1998. Or that no QBs were drafted until the 3rd round. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bored 0 Report post Posted January 4, 2006 1988 had to be one of the weakest quarterback classes ever as not only was there none selected until the 3rd round, there were none taken in the 4th & 5th rounds. Here's all the qb's drafted that year: 3rd Round 68. Tom Tupa, Ohio State (Cardinals) 76. Chris Chandler, Washington (Colts) 6th Round 149. Don McPherson, Syracuse (Eagles) 151. Scott Secules, Virginia (Cowboys) 159. Stan Humphries, NE Louisiana (Redskins) 7th Round 175. Mike Perez, San Jose State (Giants) 180. Kerwin Bell, Florida (Dolphins) 10th Round 256. Bud Keyes, Wisconsin (Packers) 274. Todd Santos, San Diego State (Saints) 11th Round 281. Danny McCoin, Cincinnati (Lions) 282. Danny McManus, Florida State (Chiefs) 283. David Weber, Carroll College (Raiders) 12th Round 328. Steve Slayden, Duke (Browns) So only two quarterbacks in Chandler and Humphries that had success in the NFL. Danny McManus had success in the CFL and is still limping around there. Tupa actually would be 3rd in NFL passing attempts of that list as he was the Cardinals regular starter in 1991 and didn't convert to punter until 1994 with the Browns (he played both positions at Ohio State). Guess who was one of Tupa's back up in 1991? Chris Chandler. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bored 0 Report post Posted January 6, 2006 Yup on September 4, 1994 against the Bengals in the Browns 28-20 win after a TD pass by Vinny Testaverde to Leroy Hoard. So with Testaverde connection I figured I'd just post the 1st round of the 1987 draft and then I looked at the running backs drafted in the 1st round that year: 3. Alonzo Highsmith, Miami (Oilers) 4. Brent Fullwood, Auburn (Packers) 14. D.J. Dozier, Penn State (Vikings) 19. Paul Palmer, Temple (Chiefs) 21. Roger Vick, Texas A&M (Jets) 24. Rod Bernstine, Texas A&M (Chargers) 25. Terrence Flagler, Clemson (49ers) Highsmith was a complete bust rushing for just over 1100 yards in his career. Fullwood rushed for 821 yards in 1989 and then was out of the league after 1990. Dozier is best known for being a failure in two pro sports, football and baseball. Palmer barely cleared 1000 yards for his career and was done after 1989. Vick rush for 1289 yards in his career and done after 1989. Bernstine is the "star" of the list but he was best known as an H-Back. Then Flagler rushed for a whopping 237 yards in his carer but has two Super Bowl rings by lucking out by being drafted by the 49ers. That is one ugly first round class of backs. The draft wasn't a total bust for running backs as the Chiefs grabbed Christian Okoye in the 2nd Round and then of course Bo Jackson was drafted by the Raiders in the 7th Round a year after he was taken #1 overall by the Bucs but never signed and decided to play baseball. Hey not like anyone else wanted to play for the Bucs in the 80's. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bored 0 Report post Posted January 8, 2006 Six Wild Card teams have made it to the Super Bowl since the Wild Card round was added back in 1978. Here's a quick look back at the results of their Wild Card games. Oakland Raiders - December 28th, 1980 - def. Houston Oilers 27-7 Raiders blew open a 10-7 game in the 4th quarter behind a 44 yard touchdown pass from Jim Plunkett to Art Whittington and a 20 yard interception return for a touchdown by Lester Hayes. It would be another 20 years until a playoff game was played in Oakland. New England Patriots - December 28th, 1985 - def. New York Jets 26-14 Patriots would get their first playoff win ever on their way to becoming the only team to ever win three road playoff games on the way to the Super Bowl. Fell behind 7-3 in the 2nd quarter but would score 20 unanswered points capped by a fumble return for a touchdown by Johnny Rembert. Buffalo Bills - January 3rd, 1993 - def. Houston Oilers 41-38 OT The most famous Wild Card game ever as the Bills made the greatest comeback in NFL history after trailing 35-3 early in the 3rd quarter. Back up quarterback Frank Reich threw four touchdowns in the second half to lead the comeback. Steve Christie's 32 yard field goal won it in overtime. Denver Broncos - December 27th, 1997 - def. Jacksonville Jaguars 42-17 Broncos got revenge on the Jaguars for an upset in Denver the previous year. They led only 21-17 after three but back up running backs Derrek Loville and Vaughn Hebron combined for three fourth quarter scores to turn the game into a blowout. Terrell Davis had 184 yards rushing. Tennessee Titans - January 8th, 2000 - def. Buffalo Bills 22-16 Maybe the second most famous Wild Card game as the franchise formely known as the Oilers got revenge of sorts for the comeback from seven years earlier. After the Bills took a 16-15 lead on a Steve Christie field goal with 16 seconds left the Titans would score on the ensuing kick off with the "Music City Miracle" where Frank Wycheck threw a lateral across the field to Kevin Dyson who ran 75 yards for the winning score. Baltimore Ravens - December 31, 2000 - def. Denver Broncos 21-3 Ravens crushed the Broncos holding them to 177 yards in total offense. The big play of the game was a 58 yard touchdown pass from Trent Dilfer to Shannon Sharpe in the 2nd quarter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
