    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 28, No. 2 (2006) WHEN HAVING A BETTER RECORD DIDN'T MEAN HOME FIELD ADVANTAGE, Part Two By Andy Piascik With the NFL-AFL merger in 1966 and the advent of the Super Bowl, pro football's postseason began to grow larger. Neither the NFL or AFL addressed the long-standing problem of how better to determine the home team in their respective Championship Games, however. In fact, almost another decade would go by until necessary changes were made. Instead, both leagues continued with the rotation system that had ruled pro football's postseason since 1933. And as happened so many times previously, the teams that finished with the best regular season record in both leagues in 1966, the Packers and the Chiefs, had to go on the road in the title games. Bucking the odds clearly established over the previous 33 years, both won. Even when the NFL realigned in 1967 and enlarged the playoffs, the same system was left intact. Again, evidence that something was amiss was immediately apparent. That year, the Rams finished 11-1-2 and won the Coastal Division of the Western Conference on the basis of a head to head tie-breaker over the Colts, who also finished 11-1-2. In the West's Central Division, meanwhile, the Packers finished first at 9-4-1. Despite their superior record and even though they had beaten Green Bay in their regular season meeting, the Rams had to travel to Wisconsin to play the Western Conference Championship Game. After beating the Packers two weeks earlier in Los Angeles, the Rams lost and went home while the Packers went on to win the Super Bowl.

Book Condition: new. BRAND NEW, Kardiac Kids: The Story of the 1980 Cleveland Browns, Jonathan Knight, Every longtime Cleveland sports fan knows about "Red Right 88," the play that ended the Browns' 1980 season. Trailing 14-12 late in the fourth quarter against the Oakland Raiders in an icy, windy playoff game, the Browns opted to eschew a field-goal attempt and go for a touchdown. Quarterback Brian Sipe's ill-fated throw, intended for tight end Ozzie Newsome, was intercepted by Oakland in the end zone, bringing to a halt Cleveland's "kardiac" campaign. In Kardiac Kids Jonathan Knight paints a portrait of the Browns' storybook 1980 season and its impact on the city of Cleveland. Knight takes us through that unforgettable year from beginning to end, describing in great detail how the city simply fell in love with this team. It was the year long-suffering Cleveland sports fans finally had something to be proud of. Tickets were at a premium, players were pursued like rock stars, and songs were written about their on-field heroics. This was a team made up of individuals who weren't expected to be headline grabbers. It had a personable, often humorous head coach and...

This man set the NFL record for most interceptions thrown in a rookie season with 28; luckily, it led to his team being able to draft a Pro Bowl running back with the fourth overall pick. In 2015, this player posted a 0.0 passer rating against the Kansas CIty Chiefs, but he did manage to pass Brett Favre on the all time passing yards leaderboard, and this ​ quarterback also set the single season record for touchdown passes the year before with 55.

  • Jim Caldwell
    Jim Caldwell Jim Caldwell coached under Tony Dungy in Tampa Bay and Indianapolis and then succeeded him as head coach of the Colts. He used to write cards to his daughter, Natalie, when she was away at college. She was several states away, and they both had busy schedules so they didn’t get to talk very much. So every time she needed money, Coach Caldwell would send her a check, along with a note of encouragement and affirmation. He didn't write anything profound or mind-blowing, just things to encourage her. When Jim was finally able to visit her apartment, he saw all every single one of his cards taped to the living room wall. "All of a sudden, I realized I hadn't written her nearly enough," he said. And he realized how much a father's words can mean to his child. Encouragement is powerful. It has the potential to change people's attitudes, which can change how they react to situations, which can change the course of their days, their weeks, or even their years. There are plenty of forces in the world that discourage us, but not many people go out of their way to be encouraging. Be one of them. Red Right 88 The Cleveland Browns and Oakland Raiders were playing each other in the playoffs in 1981. The temperature was 4 degrees! The Browns were losing by 2 points with 49 seconds left in the game, and they were only 13 yards from the endzone – easy field goal range to win the game.
