Websites about the old AFL, nice.

Glad the Charges made it but I don’t see them beating Cincy, Cincinnati is probably the 5th or 6th best team in the NFL.

If we don't march right down for a TD... I feel Dandy Don will be tuning up--

Wish the Patriots still had their original helmets from the early '60s, this is sharp vs. the NY Titans.

A LITTLE TRIVIA:
if TENN had won that game on DEC 15 vs AZ (which they lost 37-34 Overtime) ... and all else stays same .... and a KC win over SD today with the field goal ... TN would be wildcard (not Pitt). Close.

With all the tiebreakers ... the only tie thus far is:
CINN over INDY for #3 seed. CINN head to head over INDY.

I had the sound off in GB-CHI ... were the announcers barking about the Packers going to 1-point and not 2-point in 4th qtr?

That would actually be Nickerson Field

Officials screw over Dallas - not too shocking.

They call a timeout after an incomplete pass? What the heck?

I’m not watching the game on TV, but I saw they got charged a Timeout, was it on a challenge?

Whoa. Completely blown coverage allows a wide-open Dez Bryant to score a TD.

Nickerson Field was formerly Braves Field where the Boston Braves played before they became the Milwaukee Braves and later the Atlanta Braves. It’s several miles from Fenway Park.

Philly’s D doing what the Bears did, fail.

2 point pass is no good though.

no, the officials called delay of game on Dallas after setting the play clock to 25 seconds instead of 40.

Almost 4 minutes left, relatively a fair amount of time but Dallas used at 1 time out, maybe another.

Cowboys just need an FG, IF they can get the ball back,

Onside?? I’d say no but maybe they should try an onside kick. I’d say no. Though if they have only 1 time out, I’d kick it onside.

They need a three-and-out now, with only 1 Time Out left.

Win or lose, they have nothing to hang their heads about for tonight’s game.

Thanks. The AFL did a lot to make passing what it became in the NFL. Entertaining as heck to look at those websites.

We have a real game here.
