Just curious if anybody out there has run any 76 and/or 77 season simulations with the schedules recalibrated to 16 GAMES. If so what were the results?  ...
Y.A Tittle vs Joe Namath. Both quarterbacks were gritty, tough and extemly cunning. They played with injuries and are legends of the game. In 1962 Y.A. Tittle...
Who was the better (or worse as to your pleasure; remarkable how few great/complete coaches there have been) coach Mike Ditka or Buddy Ryan or, to put a finer...

Papa Bear was "the man" in his day, but can there be any doubt that he stayed on too long---similar to Al Davis. He had the perfect chance to retire after the...
