http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eqsvcsdckiw&feature=related The San Francisco 49ers opted to hand over the reins to Steve Young following the 1992 season and in turn, traded the franchise’s best quarterback – Joe Montana. San Fran dealt Montana in ’93 to the Kansas City Chiefs, a team that had a growing reputation for […]
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FT7duiJm-6o The playoff history of the Atlanta Falcons isn’t a lengthy one despite being in existence since 1966. Atlanta didn’t reach the postseason until 1978, when they were eliminated by the Dallas Cowboys in the NFC Divisional playoffs.

Today’s edition of Throwback Thursday takes us back to the 1975 NFL playoffs and the legendary meeting between the Dallas Cowboys and Minnesota Vikings.
Dan Marino was a bad man in 1984. Before Joe Montana’s 49ers blew up Marino’s Dolphins in Super Bowl XIX, the second-year quarterback was a monster during the ’84 regular season. Marino tossed a then-NFL record 48 touchdown passes and also established a new benchmark with 5,084 yards […]
The master of labor unrest versions of the NFL was none other than Washington Redskins head coach Joe Gibbs, whose Skins won Super Bowls following work stoppages during the ’82 and ’87 seasons. Today’s TT finds us in RFK Stadium with the ’82 Skins.
Earlier this week, we re-examined the 1990 NFC title game, which in my opinion is the hardest hitting conference championship game ever (not this one). The ultimate loser of the ’90 NFC title game was the Buffalo Bills, who faced the slow and plodding New York Giants in […]
