???? Where (what post) did I ask you about Esiason??????
I mnetioned "Norman Einstein in post # 2002, but Esiason?????
LOL. Philly is in for a pretty long day, if the Pats play anywhere near their incredible ability.
*********
By the way, it is now being reported here in Pittsburgh, and it is true because I heard Ben say it himself moments ago...........he played the whole second half with two or three broken toes on one of his feet. He supposedly had them broken at the end of the first half........
Yoi!
Sorry. I misread your post.
Patriots 31 -- Eagles 13
That's A-OK. You're still the man. Keep that stock tip to yourself....
;-)
Go Pats!
Parcells won that one with smoke and mirrors I went back and looked at the stats for that game, the Giants had something like 40:00 time of possession.
True..but in that old bastards case it's senility and hatred.
Once a grand kleagle, always a grand kleagle!
Bradshaw??
Would he fit the bill??
My wife and I were discussing the Greatest Redskin SuperBowl play and we both independently came up with that one.
Best Super Bowl ever in my opinion.
He made the plays when the Steelers needed him to.
I think it's one of the top Super Bowl plays ever. Then the Redskin defense stops Miami (like they did for the entire second half of that game) and then the Hogs took over with a clock killing touchdown drive to put the game away.
They were #2 in the leage for almost all of the year.
Gibbs just needs to get that offense going.
He will, I assure you.
The Brunnell thing looked great on paper but turned out to be a disaster. By the time he corrected that situation, the season was all but over.
Still, in the mega-weak NFC, if Gibbs could have gotten to 8 & 8, he might have gotten into the playoffs.
It's amamzing when you think about the success Gibbs has had as NFL head coach and in NASCAR. The guy just knows what it takes to win.
I've still got the tape on that game. I ought to get it digitized.
Anyway, I've also got one titled "The Quarter".
Do you remember which game that was?
Well in Super Bowl 22 they scored 35 points in the second quarter against Denver. Is that the one you're thinking of?
Montana driving 80 some yeads for the winning score with virtually no time left against Cincy is way up there in my book too.
It's funny that Montana won three Super Bowl MVP's and yet the Super Bowl he'll be most remembered for is the one he didn't win the MVP.
Gibbs was more the master of slipping through the cracks in the off years than someone who's team dominated the league. Nor did Gibbs get to the Super Bowl without home advantage all the way. If the Skins had to go on the road, they just didn't go to the Super Bowl.
Ooooooo, I'm soooo gonna OPUS!
