  • FIELD GOAL KICKIN' – the 1976 Oakland Raiders
    FIELD GOAL KICKIN’ – The 1976 Oakland Raiders By Dean Gearhart 3/2/15 During the last episode, I noted that in the 1977 Topps football card set, one of the few teams that did not have a kicker represented in the set was the defending champion Oakland Raiders. I fast-forwarded to my 1978 set. Ah, there he is…… Errol Mann. Turning Errol’s card to the back, I see that he was, in fact, the Raiders kicker on their championship team. I also saw that he has a pilot’s license…..very nice…..and in 1976 he connected for 26 Extra points for Oakland……. …….and 4 field goals…… (record scratching sound effect)……4 field goals? Do what? I quickly turned to pro-football-reference.com to check the stats for the 1976 Oakland Raiders and it turns out that Errol took over for an injured Fred Steinfort. Well, that makes sense then. Steinfort had made 4 field goals of his own before getting injured, making for a grand total of……uh……8 field goals…….for the world champion Raiders. Really? When one thinks of the 1976 Raiders many images come to mind. They were led by quarterback Kenny “The Snake” Stabler and coached by the legendary John Madden. Their defense included Ted Hendricks (“The Stork”), John Matuszak (“The Tooz”), Skip Thomas (“Dr. Death”) and Jack Tatum (“The Assassin”). They finished the regular season a dominant 13-1-0, with a Week 4 blowout loss at New England the only blemish on their record. As fortune would have it, the Raiders would get a chance to avenge that lone defeat when they hosted New England in the first round of the AFC playoffs.

  • Sweet Science Preparing Broncos' Jones for First Camp
    Sweet science preparing Broncos’ Jones for first camp By Ryan O’Halloran The Denver Post July 15, 2018 Sometime between throwing a right cross, left jab and consecutive uppercuts, Sam Jones’ Chicago Bulls cap flew off his head during a boxing session at Six-Zero Strength & Fitness last Wednesday morning in Centennial. Was losing the hat a sign Jones, a Broncos rookie guard, was grinding away in preparation for training camp? Sure. But, Jones said with a laugh: “In (a) real (fight), it probably means I would have been knocked out.” During their workout, supervised by former Colorado and NFL offensive lineman Matt McChesney, Jones and Broncos tackle/guard Billy Turner focused on balance and technique before Matt’s brother, Zach, an MMA fighter, put the players through three sets of boxing work. Since he was 15, Jones has worked with McChesney, who started Six-Zero and trains high school, college and professional players. A Highlands Ranch native, Jones played at Arizona State and was a sixth-round draft pick by the Broncos. In the six weeks between the offseason program and training camp, Jones isn’t looking to add strength. “It’s not lifting and running; it’s all technique-based,” Matt McChesney said. “Even the boxing is more suited to defensive and offensive line play – foot transition, extension through your hands, moving to stay in front of your target and understanding different angles.” In addition to Jones and Turner, Broncos guards Connor McGovern and Ron Leary, Tampa Bay center Ryan Jensen and New York Jets defensive tackle Mike Pennel train frequently at Six-Zero.

  • College Football Climatology Posted on September 9, 2013
    College Football Climatology Posted on September 9, 2013 Michigan kicks an extra point in a 1950 game against Ohio State that was played in a snowstorm. The game essentially decided the Big Ten championship, and Michigan won 9-3 in what is known as “The Snow Bowl”. Squarely at the intersection of two of my interests are football games that are played during adverse weather conditions. There’s something special about seeing two teams battle it out in the elements that can make a great game legendary. The Ice Bowl. The Fog Bowl. The Snow Bowl. The “Tuck Rule” game. These games stand out in football history and memories usually due to a combination of the weather and implications for championships. Many of these examples come from the National Football League. As a fan of the Green Bay Packers I have been well-schooled on the lore of the 1967 NFL Championship Game, otherwise known as the “Ice Bowl”. The game was played during bitterly cold conditions with wind chills around -35 degrees (using the new version of the wind chill formula). The Packers, down by 3 points to the Dallas Cowboys, had just over four minutes to drive 68 yards for the winning score and a berth in the second Super Bowl. It says a lot that most people remember this game more than Super Bowl II itself! Of course, the Packers completed the final drive with Bart Starr diving into the end zone on a quarterback sneak with just seconds remaining on the game clock. There are also plenty of examples from college football.

  • THE LOOKMAN REPORT 2013 Week Ten – Clap for the Wolfman
    THE LOOKMAN REPORT 2013 Week Ten – Clap for the Wolfman "You can't make this stuff up. It takes the rivalry to a whole new level." – Maysville, Wisconsin Police Chief Christopher MacNeill after arresting a man for tasing his wife following the Bears-Pack tilt. PROLOGUE Rivalries are mother’s milk to NFL teams and fans. The NFL would be nothing without Pokes‐Genocide Victims, Bears— Packers, or the Battle of Ohio. Fans take these games to heart, and they make the fabric of the league into chain mail. Last week, another type of rivalry arose in the Big Easy as former Pokes D‐coordinator Rob (The Wolfman) Ryan faced his old team. Pokes owner Jerry Jones made Ryan a scapegoat for the Pokes poor defensive performance last season, and the Wolfman wasn’t having it. Ryan proceeded to do the functional equivalent of pantsing the Pokes on national TV, holding Romo to 0‐9 on 3rd down. The New Orleans defense has given up 20 points only twice all season, both losses. They are averaging 17.5 points allowed, one of the better defensive performances in the NFL. And this with a cast of folks that are not even household names outside of the Big Easy. Coaches and players love beating their old teams. It makes up a little for the ego bruising when teams send you packing. And revenge, like the old Klingon proverb, is a dish best served cold. Speaking of dishes, The Wolfman walked into a New Orleans dive bar following the win over the Pokes and laid a C‐note on the counter saying, “Folks drink free.

  • THE LOOKMAN REPORT 2011 Week Ten – After Further Review
    THE LOOKMAN REPORT 2011 Week Ten – After Further Review “I don't even know what football is right now. I don't know what hitting is, I don't know what tackling is, and I've been in this league a long time. I can't tell what's a personal foul or what's anything anymore.'' -- Oakland coach Hue Jackson, after a win in which Oakland got flagged twelve times for nearly 200 yards Week Ten featured a number of calls that made the Look Man come out of hibernation. Gresham’s foray into the land of Megaton not only didn’t pass the eye test for an overturned call, it was absolutely bogus. The unsportsmanlike conduct call on DeSean Jackson may have please Pokes Fan, but it was absolutely a dead ball foul that should have provided a first down. Both calls changed the outcome of the contests, but the Bengals lost and the Iggles won. Irrespective, the zebras have now taken the game out of the hands of the players and into the realm of WWF. Tack on the outrageous calls in the Jacksonville-Cleveland contest, and you have a real conundrum. The NFL has already slowed down the game by replaying every scoring play, and allowing Shanahanigans timeouts just before each game deciding FG. They won’t allow fans to celebrate spontaneously at the game, but instead turn every play into something requiring further review. Major League Baseball has lost a lot of fans with a slow game, and the NFL is threatening its own future with the same foolishness.

  • Week 20 Twenty-Four
    The Look Man Report 2003 - Week 20 Twenty-Four As the NFL season winds its way down to the Highlander Bowl, last week’s episode was more like a Fox TV show than Conference Championship week. That is to say that if your number was 24, you were instantly transformed into a super hero capable of saving the world in just a few hours. Cornerbacks Ty Law and Ricky Manning Jr. each pulled off a stunning hat trick of interceptions and will now request to be known heretofore as "Jack Bauer." Since both are appearing in the Super Bowl in Houston, we will soon be able to ask the real Jack Bauer to please stand up. The AFC Championship game kicked off in Foxborough, pitting Peyton Manning, MD against a New England secondary that was releasing the deadly Pick 3 Virus on the World. Chowds CB Ty Law starred as a policeman responsible for cleaning up all the ugly throws by dancing Doctor Manning. While Peyton Manning may not be a doctor, he nearly put his receivers in the hospital last Sunday in Beantown Heights. He fought the Law and the Law won, while singing, “Bad boys, bad boys, what you gonna do? What you gonna do when they come for you?” Three hours later, dateline Philly, QB Donovan (Filthy) McNabb(sty) starred as President Palmer while Carolina CB Ricky Manning Jr. was Enrique Salazar, a rogue centerfielder from Cleveland intent on assassinating the President. Salazar did just that with the Pick 3 Virus that sealed Palmer’s fate, and left Filthy in a lot of pain.

  • The Look Man Report 2007 Week Nineteen: Redenbacher's Revenge PROLOGUE LAGNIAPPE
    The Look Man Report 2007 Week Nineteen: Redenbacher’s Revenge “A word to the not so wise with regard to your little girlfriend. Do what you need to with her, then broom her, fast!” – Bill Parcells to Tony Romo in 2006 PROLOGUE The Divisional Playoffs were true to form as Dallas, the NFC’s number one seed, bowed at home to a feisty Jynts team. The Pokes suffered the dual ignominy of losing the rubber match to a division rival while tarnishing a stellar 13-3 regular season record. If you tack on the gratuitous references to TO’s trademark popcorn slogan, the pain was threefold. Green Bay, the NFC’s other juggernaut, was able to overcome two early turnovers by RB Ryan Grant to post a win over the Shehawks. In retrospect, their quality win in the snow globe of Flambeau was a harbinger of exactly how good the Cheeseheads really are. Irrespective of the Pokes-Jynts outcome, they are the class of the NFC, and likely would’ve proven it against the Starheads in the NFC Championship. Over in the AFC, the Chowds polished off a game J-Ville team in a game that wasn’t nearly as close as the score indicated. While the J-Squareds covered the spread, head coach Jack Del River wasn’t able to sustain the pressure necessary to win the game. Of course, Vince Lombardi himself couldn’t have overcome a white-hot Tom Brady, who set a new record for accuracy in the win. Brady destroyed the 21 of 25 Super Bowl XXI record held by Phil Simms.
