  • 1941 Championship Game
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 8, No. 2 (1986) 1941 CHAMPIONSHIP GAME By Bob Carroll The 1941 National Football League Championship Game was held two weeks after the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. Held on even terms for more than a half, the Chicago Bears won their second consecutive National Football League Championship by defeating the New York Giants 37-9 with a surge of power in the last two periods. A pair of touchdowns in the third quarter followed by another pair in the fourth made the Bears the first team to repeat as champions since the institution of the league championship game. A skimpy crowd of 13,341 – smallest of the season at Wrigley Field – saw the contest. The gate, smaller than that netted when these same two teams met in a pre-season exhibition game, cut heavily into the participating players' pool. Each Bear received $430.94; each Giant $288.70. The second place teams – the Packers and Brooklyn – divided a pool of $1,564.04. The gross receipts, including radio, were $46,184.05. In part, the crowd was held down by the anticlimactic nature of the game; the Giants were given little chance of derailing the Bears' championship express. Even more responsible was the depressing news coming out of the Pacific where American forces were retreating before the Japanese. Football seemed rather unimportant when viewed in context of the world situation. Two players who appeared in the game – Young Bussey and John Lummus – would be killed in action before the war ended. The Bears were kept in the game during the first half by the sure foot of Bob Snyder who booted three field goals, but the second half produced a deluge of Chicago points.

  • '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".

  • Curly Lambeau
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 6, No. 1 (1984) Curly Lambeau Just when most of the small town teams were disappearing, Lambeau had his Packers at the top of the NFL standings. He built a juggernaut that won league championships in 1929, ‘30, and ‘31. No team has ever topped that 3-straight record. Always, Lambeau’s teams emphasized the forward pass, using it as a main part of the offense when other teams treated it as a desperation tactic. In 1935, Don Hutson joined the pack, and – coupled with passers Arnie Herber and Cecil Isbell – he became the most devastating receiver the NFL had ever seen. Featuring Hutson, Lambeau’s Packers continued as a power into the 1940s, winning championships in 1936, ‘39, and ‘44. With six champions and 33 consecutive years as an NFL head coach, Lambeau was a shoo-in as a charter member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1963. Today, the Green Bay Packers are the only remaining reminder that the National Football League was once studded with “small town” teams. Rock Island, Dayton, Canton and dozens of others competed against Chicago and New York. That little Green Bay survived where so many others failed was, more than anything else, due to the efforts of Earl “Curly” Lambeau. In 1919, when he should have been back at Notre Dame as George Gipp’s sophomore sub, Lambeau organized his frst Green Bay team and talked a local meat packer into sponsoring it. Two years later, Lambeau brought the Packers into the young NFL. Almost immediately, disaster struck! After only one season in the NFL, the Packers were found to have violated some league rules and the franchise was lifted.

  • Coach Steve Owen: the Great Innovator
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 18, No. 4 (1996) COACH STEVE OWEN: THE GREAT INNOVATOR By Stan Grosshandler, et.al. (Originally published in part in Football Digest) Professional football has advanced from a simple to complex game. To a great extent, this is due to the imaginative genius of the coaches. In the early years the innovators were George Halas, Curly Lambeau, Greasy Neale and Jimmy Conzelman. Later Paul Brown and Vince Lombardi came along. Today [ed.: 1970s] we have Tom Landry, Don Shula, Hank Stram and George Allen to mention a few. Seldom mentioned; yet one of the great innovators of all time is Steve Owen, for 23 years the guiding genius of the New York Giants. Stout Steve came up with innovations like the A-formation and the Umbrella Defense. These were not only catchy names, but effective weapons. The Giants under Owen won eight division and two league championships. What is even more remarkable about Owen is that he stressed defense when few of his contemporaries did. His kind of football began with blocking and tackling. "Football is a game played down in the dirt and it always will be. There's no use getting fancy about it." Often criticized by Giants fans as ultra-conservative, he may have been the first NFL coach to elect to kick off to start a game. He often chose to go for a sure field goal rather than gamble for a touchdown, and that further upset New York rooters. Eventually, however, the rest of the league came around to his way of thinking.

  • Passer Ratings
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 8, No. 9 (1986) BUCKING THE SYSTEM OR, WHY THE NFL CAN'T FIND HAPPINESS WITH ITS PASSER RATINGS By Bob Carroll If you believe in your heart of hearts that Warren Moon is a better passer than Otto Graham, you're at one with the National Football League. Never mind that Graham is a card-carrying member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame and a quarterback who led the Cleveland Browns to seven league championships in ten seasons, while Moon is the oft-booed signal-caller for one of the NFL's least successful franchises. According to the National Football League's Passer Rating System, Moon tossed for a 68.5 mark last season; Graham, in 1950 – a year his Cleveland Browns won the NFL Championship, could manage only a paltry 64.7. That makes it official; Warren is 3.8 better than "Automatic Otto." Has George Orwell become an NFL flack? Is this reality or newspeak? More! In the gospel according to the NFL, Dan Marino is the best passer ever. Until this year, Joe Montana was. A couple of other top ten performers: Danny White, the guy who made Dallas forget Roger Staubach, and Neil Lomax, whose success in St. Louis has made him a legend. And it don't rain in Indianapolis in the summertime. Well, it all depends, you say. Actually, it DOESN'T rain (or snow) inside the Hoosier Dome during any part of the calendar year, and Marino, Montana, White, and Lomax ARE good – maybe great – passers. But, are they THAT good? The much-maligned NFL Way of Rating Passers places some present throwers at the top of the Hurler Heap and consigns such clutzes as Sid Luckman, Johnny Unitas, Y.A.

  • The Day the Sun Died: September 1950, Erie's Pro Football Team, and Doomsday Theology
    Quick, Timely Reads On the Waterfront The Day the Sun Died: September 1950, Erie’s Pro Football Team, and Doomsday Theology By David Frew June 2021 Dr. David Frew, a prolific writer, author, and speaker, grew up on Erie's lower west side as a proud "Bay Rat," joining neighborhood kids playing and marauding along the west bayfront. He has written for years about his beloved Presque Isle and his adventures on the Great Lakes. In this series, the JES Scholar-in-Residence takes note of of life in and around the water. The mid-afternoon sky in Bradford, Pennsylvania, southeast of Erie. (Illustration courtesy of the Bradford Landmark Society) For two years, 1949 and 1950, Erie, Pennsylvania had a professional football team. The team was called the Erie Vets, and true to its name, several players were World Wat II veterans. Coached by a young Lou Tullio, who’d later go on to become Erie’s six-term mayor, the Vets played two full seasons with games scheduled at today’s Veterans Stadium on 26th and State streets. According to my father, who was a huge fan, the Vets were fearsome because of their toughness and fearlessness. Instead of being composed entirely of young men who had recently graduated from college, like most of the other teams in the league, the Erie Vets were powered by mature men who had experienced the war as part of Erie’s internationally famous “Fighting 28th, the local reserve unit that had landed at Normandy (second wave), marched across Europe chasing the German Army, liberated France, and won the Battle of the Bulge." The Fighting 28th marches into Paris Erie’s Fighting 28th, also known as the Bloody Bucket Brigade, was a reserve unit headquartered at the recently restored Armory on East Sixth Street.

  • The Packer Fullbacks
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 21, No. 6 (1999) THE PACKER FULLBACKS By Stan Grosshandler To the long time NFL fan, the word fullback conjures up the picture of a powerfully built man crashing into the line head down and knees up. On defense he backed up the line like a stone wall. The name Bronko Nagurski immediately comes to mind as the prototype fullback. The term fullback is about to go the way of the terms as end, blocking back, halfback, and wingback. The usual NFL fullback today is the up man in a two man backfield used as a blocker and occasional pass receiver. The Green Bay Packers have had their share of “real fullbacks”. Their first one of note was Bo Molenda, who played a total of 13 years in the NFL. He started with the Packers in 1928, and then was a member of the three straight championship teams of ‘29,'30, and ‘31. In the Lambeau system the FB stood beside and to the right of the LH or tailback in the Notre Dame box. In a position to receive the ball directly from the center he had to be able to run wide, plunge, spin and hand off, plus pass and receive. Ideal for this job was Clarke Hinkle, who joined the team in 1932 out of Bucknell. Clarke did it all, run, pass, receive, kick both extra points and field goals, and backed up the line. He topped the league in scoring in 1938 (58 points) and led twice in field goals. Hinkle is now in both the Professional and College Halls of Fame.
