11 24 20 Week 12 NFL Preview FOR USE AS DESIRED 11/24/20 THANKFUL FOR CLOSE GAMES, ELECTRIFYING PLAYERS, NFL GAINING MOMENTUM FOR STRETCH RUN The National Football League is thankful for many things. Thrilling games decided in the final minutes and players with gleaming futures making significant contributions in the present are high on that list. Through 11 weeks, only one other season in NFL history has produced more games within one score (eight points or fewer) in the fourth quarter. And, through 11 weeks, only two other prior years have produced more games decided by one score.

Making his first NFL start at quarterback last week, Hill passed for 233 yards, rushed for 51 yards and had two rushing touchdowns. Pro Football Hall of Famer PAUL HORNUNG entered the NFL as the first-overall selection in the 1957 draft. Among those who began their careers since Hornung joined the league, Hill is one of only 10 players with at least 500 career rushing yards, 300 career passing yards and 300 career receiving yards.

Thomas has 489 career receptions and surpassed JARVIS LANDRY (481) for the most receptions by a player in his first five seasons in NFL history. Kamara has 531 rushing yards and 648 receiving yards this season and is the first player with at least 500 rushing yards and 500 receiving yards in each of his first four seasons in NFL history. He is also the sixth running back with four-or-more consecutive seasons with at least 500 rushing yards and 500 receiving yards in the Super Bowl era (1966-2020). FIRST PLACE ON THE LINE IN INDY: The TENNESSEE TITANS and INDIANAPOLIS COLTS, both 7-3 and tied atop the AFC South, meet in a key showdown on Sunday (1:00 PM ET, CBS). It’s the teams’ second meeting in three weeks. In Week 10 on Thursday Night Football, Indianapolis defeated Tennessee, 34-17, as running back NYHEIM HINES totaled two touchdowns (one rushing, one receiving). Last week, each team won an overtime thriller. In that win last week, the Colts overcame a 14-point deficit to defeat Green Bay, 34-31, in overtime. This season in the NFL, there have been 12 games in which a team has overcome a deficit of at least 14 points to win, tied with the 1996 and 1979 seasons for the third-most such games through Week 11 in NFL history. Only the 1987 (15 games) and 2011 (14) seasons had more. The Titans, meanwhile, overcame an 11-point deficit to defeat Baltimore, 30-24, in overtime. This season, there have been 33 games in which a team has overcome a deficit of at least 10 points to win, the most through Week 11 in NFL history. Tennessee running back DERRICK HENRY rushed for 133 yards, including the game-winning 29-yard touchdown in overtime, last week. He leads the NFL with 1,079 rushing yards this season. Henry, who also registered a 5-yard overtime touchdown run in Week 6, is the first player with multiple overtime rushing touchdowns in a single season in NFL history. This season, the Titans have won an NFL-high five games in which they’ve scored the game-deciding points in either overtime or the last two minutes of regulation. Through the season’s first 11 weeks, the league has produced 28 games – or 2.54 per week – in which the winning team earned the deciding points in either the final two minutes of regulation or overtime. The games in which the deciding points were scored in the final two minutes of regulation or overtime this season: WEEK RESULT PLAY TIME QTR WEEK RESULT PLAY TIME QTR 1 Chi 27, Det 23 TD pass 1:54 4 6 Ten 42, Hou 36 TD run 6:30 OT 1 Ten 16, Den 14 FG 0:17 4 7 Ari 37, Sea 34 FG 0:15 OT 2 Dal 40, Atl 39 FG 0:00 4 7 Cle 37, Cin 34 TD pass 0:11 4 2 KC 23, LAC 20 FG 1:55 OT 7 Det 23, Atl 22 TD pass 0:00 4 2 Ten 33, Jax 30 FG 1:36 4 7 Phi 22, NYG 21 TD pass 0:40 4 3 Buf 35, LAR 32 TD pass 0:15 4 8 Den 31, LAC 30 TD pass 0:00 4 3 Chi 30, Atl 26 TD pass 1:53 4 8 NO 26, Chi 23 FG 1:36 OT 3 Det 26, Ari 23 FG 0:00 4 9 NE 30, NYJ 27 FG 0:00 4 3 Sea 38, Dal 31 TD pass 1:47 4 10 Ari 32, Buf 30 TD pass 0:02 4 3 Ten 31, Min 30 FG 1:44 4 10 Det 30, Was 27 FG 0:00 4 5 Chi 20, TB 19 FG 1:13 4 11 Dal 31, Min 28 TD pass 1:37 4 5 Dal 37, NYG 34 FG 0:00 4 11 Ind 34, GB 31 FG 7:10 OT 5 NO 30, LAC 27 FG 5:08 OT 11 KC 35, LV 31 TD pass 0:28 4 5 Sea 27, Min 26 TD pass 0:15 4 11 Ten 30, Bal 24 TD run 5:21 OT STRIKING DISTANCE: Through 11 weeks, 23 of 32 teams are either in first place or within three games of first place. In five of eight divisions – the AFC East, AFC South, NFC East, NFC South and NFC West – the gap between first and second place is no more than a game and a half. BRADY-MAHOMES IV: Kansas City quarterback PATRICK MAHOMES leads the Chiefs against TOM BRADY and the Buccaneers on Sunday at Raymond James Stadium (4:25 PM ET, CBS). Including their 2018 AFC Championship contest, Mahomes and Brady are meeting for the fourth time, with Brady having won two of the three previous games, all with his former team, the Patriots. The Buccaneers are allowing the NFL’s fifth-fewest yards per game (310.5), while the Chiefs on offense are averaging 414.1 yards per game, second in the league. Kansas City is 5-0 in road games this season, tied with Pittsburgh for the best road record in the NFL. Chiefs head coach ANDY REID has the fifth-most wins (110) on the road in NFL history, including postseason. The head coaches with the most wins on the road, including postseason, in NFL history: COACH ROAD WINS Don ShulaHOF 148 George HalasHOF 138 Bill Belichick 128 Tom LandryHOF 119 Andy Reid 110 MEN OF STEEL: The PITTSBURGH STEELERS can clinch the first NFL playoff berth this week, needing a win plus a Miami loss or tie and a Las Vegas loss or tie (and assuming both the Dolphins and Raiders don’t tie). The 16th team since the 1970 league merger to begin a season 10-0, Pittsburgh hosts the BALTIMORE RAVENS on Thanksgiving night (8:20 PM ET, NBC). Over the past 50 seasons, only 11 teams have opened 11-0. Nine of those teams reached the Super Bowl, and five brought home the Vince Lombardi Trophy. The teams that began a season 11-0 since 1970: YEAR TEAM RECORD SEASON RESULT 2015 Carolina 15-1 Advanced to Super Bowl 50 2011 Green Bay 15-1 Advanced to NFC Divisional playoffs 2009 Indianapolis 14-2 Advanced to Super Bowl XLIV 2009 New Orleans 13-3 Won Super Bowl XLIV 2007 New England 16-0 Advanced to Super Bowl XLII 2005 Indianapolis 14-2 Advanced to AFC Divisional playoffs 1998 Denver 14-2 Won Super Bowl XXXIII 1991 Washington 14-2 Won Super Bowl XXVI 1985 Chicago 15-1 Won Super Bowl XX 1984 Miami 14-2 Advanced to Super Bowl XIX 1972 Miami 14-0 Won Super Bowl VII THE CLOSE-GAMES BAROMETER: Good teams win close games, and the data proves it. The CLEVELAND BROWNS, who travel to play Jacksonville on Sunday (1:00 PM ET, CBS), are off to their best start since 1994, when they opened 8-2. One of the hallmarks of their overall success in 2020 has been winning close games.

OFFENSE RULES THE FIRST: The 2020 NFL Draft featured 18 offensive players selected in the first round, tied for the fourth-most in the common draft era, trailing only the 1968, 2004 and 2009 NFL Drafts (19). HEISMANS GO FIRST: The Cincinnati Bengals selected Heisman-winning quarterback JOE BURROW with the first-overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft. Along with the first-overall selections of KYLER MURRAY (Arizona, 2019) and BAKER MAYFIELD (Cleveland, 2018), it marks the first time in the common draft era that a Heisman winner was chosen with the No. 1 pick in three consecutive NFL Drafts. With his selection at No. 1, Burrow joins CAM NEWTON (Carolina, 2011) as the only quarterbacks to win the Heisman Trophy, National Championship and be selected with the first-overall pick in the same calendar year in the common draft era. BUCKEYES AT THE TOP: Washington selected Ohio State defensive end CHASE YOUNG with the second-overall pick while Detroit picked Ohio State defensive back JEFF OKUDAH third-overall in the 2020 NFL Draft. Along with the selections of DENZEL WARD (Cleveland, No. 4 overall in 2018) and NICK BOSA (San Francisco, No. 2 in 2019), Ohio State becomes the first school to have a defensive player selected in the top-five in three consecutive Drafts in the common draft era.

  • Are You Ready for Some Super-Senior Football?
    Oldest living players Are you ready for some super-senior football? Starting East team quarterback Ace Parker (Information was current as of May 2013 when article appeared in Sports Collectors Digest magazine) By George Vrechek Can you imagine a tackle football game featuring the oldest living NFL players with some of the guys in their 90s? Well to tell the truth, I can’t really imagine it either. However that doesn’t stop me from fantasizing about the possibility of a super-senior all-star game featuring players who appeared on football cards. After SCD featured my articles earlier this year about the (remote) possibility of a game involving the oldest living baseball players, you knew it wouldn’t be long before you read about the possibility of a super-senior football game. Old-timers have been coming back to baseball parks for years to make cameo appearances. Walter Johnson pitched against Babe Ruth long after both had retired. My earlier articles proposed the possibility of getting the oldest baseball players (ranging in age from 88 to 101) back for one more game. While not very likely, it is at least conceivable. Getting the oldest old-timers back for a game of tackle football, on the other hand, isn’t very likely. We can probably think about a touch game, but the players would properly insist that touch is not the same game. If the game were played as touch football, the plethora of linemen would have to entertain one another, while the players in the skill positions got to run around and get all the attention, sort of like it is now in the NFL, except the linemen are knocking themselves silly.

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 12/16/15 http://twitter.com/nfl345 GIANTS QB ELI MANNING, RAMS DT AARON DONALD & CARDINALS K CHANDLER CATANZARO NAMED NFC PLAYERS OF WEEK 14 Quarterback ELI MANNING of the New York Giants, defensive tackle AARON DONALD of the St. Louis Rams and kicker CHANDLER CATANZARO of the Arizona Cardinals are the NFC Offensive, Defensive and Special Teams Players of the Week for games played the 14th week of the 2015 season (December 10, 13-14), the NFL announced today. OFFENSE: QB ELI MANNING, NEW YORK GIANTS Manning completed 27 of 31 passes (career-high 87.1 percent) for 337 yards with four touchdowns and no interceptions for a career-best 151.5 passer rating in the Giants’ 31-24 win at Miami. Manning’s 87.1 completion percentage is the highest by a Giants quarterback in a regular-season game (minimum 20 attempts) and the second-best mark in franchise history behind PHIL SIMMS’ 88.0 completion percentage (22 of 25) in Super Bowl XXI. He is the first Giants quarterback to have a passer rating of at least 150 in a game since 2002 (KERRY COLLINS, 158.3 on December 22). Manning threw touchdown passes to ODELL BECKHAM JR. (84 and six yards), RUEBEN RANDLE (six yards) and WILL TYE (five yards). Manning’s 84-yard touchdown pass to Beckham with 11:13 remaining in the fourth quarter broke a 24-24 tie and proved to be the game-winning score. He has six touchdown passes of at least 50 yards this season, the most in the NFL.

  • Article Extravagant Passion
    Extravagant Passion The lack of focus that stems from not believing you can achieve great things is a pitfall that stands squarely in the path of even the most talented people in the pursuit of remarkable performance. An individual’s passion must be extravagant in order to dedicate themself to the preparation, self examination, and sacrifice that remarkable performance is born of. I spent over a year of my life at Bronco training camp in a twelve year NFL career. Those were the most physically, emotionally, and mentally challenging days of my life. Dan Reeves would bring one hundred and ten NFL hopefuls to camp each year and every one of them had the physical tools, the raw talent to make the team. At the end of camp the forty nine man roster would be set, and sixty one physically capable players had been sent home. NFL clubs have scouting staffs that scour college and pro rosters across the country in search of athletes that have the physical tools to make their teams better. They run exhaustive tests and interviews on prospective draft choices and free agents. I was a twelfth round draft pick, the three hundred and tenth player drafted out of college in 1983. The Broncos sent two different scouts to test me and interview me at the University of Minnesota before the draft. One of the scouts even interviewed my girl friend. Imagine the scrutiny first and second round picks go through. The scouts make sure that each of the players they bring to camp can help the team, but the majority of the players don’t play a regular season down before they’re fired.

  • 1967 APBA PRO FOOTBALL SET ROSTER the Following Players Comprise the 1967 Season APBA Pro Football Player Card Set
    1967 APBA PRO FOOTBALL SET ROSTER The following players comprise the 1967 season APBA Pro Football Player Card Set. The regular starters at each position are listed first and should be used most frequently. Realistic use of the players below will generate statistical results remarkably similar to those from real life. IMPORTANT: When a Red "K" appears in the R-column as the result on any kind of running play from scrimmage or on any return, roll the dice again, refer to the K-column, and use the number there for the result. When a player has a "K" in his R-column, he can never be used for kicking or punting. If the symbol "F-K" or "F-P" appears on a players card, it means that you use the K or P column when he recovers a fumble. Players in bold are starters. If there is a difference between the player's card and the roster sheet, always use the card information. The number in ()s after the player name is the number of cards that the player has in this set. See below for a more detailed explanation of new symbols on the cards.
