  • Nagurski's Debut and Rockne's Lesson
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 20, No. 3 (1998) NAGURSKI’S DEBUT AND ROCKNE’S LESSON Pro Football in 1930 By Bob Carroll For years it was said that George Halas and Dutch Sternaman, the Chicago Bears’ co-owners and co- coaches, always took opposite sides in every minor argument at league meetings but presented a united front whenever anything major was on the table. But, by 1929, their bickering had spread from league politics to how their own team was to be directed. The absence of a united front between its leaders split the team. The result was the worst year in the Bears’ short history -- 4-9-2, underscored by a humiliating 40-6 loss to the crosstown Cardinals. A change was necessary. Neither Halas nor Sternaman was willing to let the other take charge, and so, in the best tradition of Solomon, they resolved their differences by agreeing that neither would coach the team. In effect, they fired themselves, vowing to attend to their front office knitting. A few years later, Sternaman would sell his interest to Halas and leave pro football for good. Halas would go on and on. Halas and Sternaman chose Ralph Jones, the head man at Lake Forest (IL) Academy, as the Bears’ new coach. Jones had faith in the T-formation, the attack mode the Bears had used since they began as the Decatur Staleys. While other pro teams lined up in more modern formations like the single wing, double wing, or Notre Dame box, the Bears under Jones continued to use their basic T.

  • Statistical Leaders of the ‘20S
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 14, No. 2 (1992) Statistical Leaders of the ‘20s By Bob GIll Probably the most ambitious undertaking in football research was David Neft’s effort to re-create statistics from contemporary newspaper accounts for 1920-31, the years before the NFL started to keep its own records. Though in a sense the attempt had to fail, since complete and official stats are impossible, the results of his tireless work provide the best picture yet of the NFL’s formative years. Since the stats Neft obtained are far from complete, except for scoring records, he refrained from printing yearly leaders for 1920-31. But it seems a shame not to have such a list, incomplete though it may be. Of course, it’s tough to pinpoint a single leader each year; so what follows is my tabulation of the top five, or thereabouts, in passing, rushing and receiving for each season, based on the best information available – the stats printed in Pro Football: The Early Years and Neft’s new hardback edition, The Football Encyclopedia. These stats can be misleading, because one man’s yardage total will be based on, say, five complete games and four incomplete, while another’s might cover just 10 incomplete games (i.e., games for which no play-by-play accounts were found). And then some teams, like Rock Island, Green Bay, Pottsville and Staten Island, often have complete stats, based on play-by-plays for every game of a season. I’ll try to mention variations like that in discussing each year’s leaders – for one thing, “complete” totals will be printed in boldface.

  • THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 7, No. 5 (1985) THE 1920s ALL-PROS IN RETROSPECT By Bob Carroll Arguments over who was the best tackle – quarterback – placekicker – water boy – will never cease. Nor should they. They're half the fun. But those that try to rank a player in the 1980s against one from the 1940s border on the absurd. Different conditions produce different results. The game is different in 1985 from that played even in 1970. Nevertheless, you'd think we could reach some kind of agreement as to the best players of a given decade. Well, you'd also think we could conquer the common cold. Conditions change quite a bit even in a ten-year span. Pro football grew up a lot in the 1920s. All things considered, it's probably safe to say the quality of play was better in 1929 than in 1920, but don't bet the mortgage. The most-widely published attempt to identify the best players of the 1920s was that chosen by the Pro Football Hall of Fame Selection Committee in celebration of the NFL's first 50 years. They selected the following 18-man roster: E: Guy Chamberlin C: George Trafton Lavie Dilweg B: Jim Conzelman George Halas Paddy Driscoll T: Ed Healey Red Grange Wilbur Henry Joe Guyon Cal Hubbard Curly Lambeau Steve Owen Ernie Nevers G: Hunk Anderson Jim Thorpe Walt Kiesling Mike Michalske Three things about this roster are striking. First, the selectors leaned heavily on men already enshrined in the Hall of Fame. There's logic to that, of course, but the scary part is that it looks like they didn't do much original research.

  • '39 PACKERS ONE of GREEN BAY's GREATEST TEAMS by Stanley Grosshandler (Originally Published in Pro Football Digest)
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 18, No. 5 (1996) '39 PACKERS ONE OF GREEN BAY'S GREATEST TEAMS by Stanley Grosshandler (Originally published in Pro Football Digest) You are right about the 1939 Packers. They were really one of the great ball clubs," replied Clarke Hinkle when asked what was the greatest Green Bay club he had ever played on. The Packers started playing pro ball in 1919; and while they produced 11 World Champions, the most outstanding have been Curly Lambeau's teams of 1929 and 1939 and the Vince Lombardi club of 1962. "I joined the Packers in 1932," recalled Hinkle, a Hall of Fame fullback, "and we had a fine club that year. There were fellows like Dilweg, Earpe, Blood, Hubbard, Michalske, Lewellen, and Herber. We ended with a 10-3-1 record, yet they awarded the title to the Bears on a ridiculous record of 7 wins, 1 loss, and 6 ties. "Our '39 bunch was very versatile. We had four good punters in Arnie Herber, Cecil Isbell, Frank Balaz, and myself; four placement kickers with Tiny Engebretsen, Don Hutson, Ernie Smith, and yours truly; and two of the greatest passers in football history - Cecil Isbell and Arnie Herber. "While there were 33 players on the roster, we relied on 16 men who played a lot of the 60 minutes of each game. "These 16 fellows stayed healthy through a tough 11-game schedule. What contributed to our success? We had an intense desire to get the job done, pride and loyalty to the team and supreme confidence that we could win".
