OFFENSE: RB TIKI BARBER, NEW YORK GIANTS • Facing the league’s No. 1 ranked rushing defense (69.3 yards allowed per game entering Week 6), Barber rushed for a season-high 185 yards on 26 carries (7.1 average) in the Giants’ 27-14 road victory over the Atlanta Falcons. The 185-yard performance is the fifth-highest total for Barber and the 33rd time the 10- year veteran has gone over the century mark (three times in 2006). Barber led a New York attack that amassed 259 yards on the ground against a defense that had allowed just 277 rushing yards in Atlanta’s previous four games combined. For the day, the former Virginia standout had eight runs of at least 10 yards, the highest single-game total by a player since Seattle’s SHAUN ALEXANDER accomplished the feat in 2004 (11/14/04). This season, Barber is tied with Atlanta’s MICHAEL VICK for the most 10+ yard runs in the league with 19.

  • That Game of Football
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 4 (1982) THAT GAME OF FOOTBALL By Bob Sproule Toronto Argonaut Statistician Whether you attend football games in person or watch on television, a great deal of similarity between the Canadian and American versions is apparent. But such was not always the case; way back in the beginning, there were two different games. In November of 1823 William Webb Ellis did the unheard of – while playing a form of soccer, he picked up the ball and ran with it. This later became the distinguishing mark of rugby football, named for the school Ellis attended in England. From this point football was no longer just a kicking game, as the handling of the ball became an important part of the play. When Harvard and McGill played their famous game of rugby in May of 1874, the Americans were given a lesson on how the game was really played, and from then on it was rugby and not soccer on the playing fields of America. * * * By 1879 the first stepping stone in the evolution of American football occurred. Rather than have both teams bunch together trying to kick the ball out to put it into play, each club lined up facing the other to form a scrimmage line. The player in the centre of the attacking team kicked the ball back to a teammate who then ran with the ball or passed it to another ball-carrier. This kicking of the ball was called heeling because the ball was kicked with the heel. It was introduced into the Canadian game in 1880.

  • Vol. 3, Annual (1981) YARDS, POINTS and WINS
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 3, Annual (1981) YARDS, POINTS AND WINS By Pete Palmer In order to relate points scored and allowed to wins and losses, data for all teams from 1970 through 1980 was accumulated. The technique used, regression analysis, is a way to determine the relationship between one or more independent variables (such as points for or points against) and a dependent variable (wins). For example, if one wanted to assign a value to points scored and another to points allowed in order to predict wins over .500 for two teams, this would be a situation with two equations and two unknowns, and the answer could be found exactly. However, this answer might not work very well when applied to other teams. The regression method mathematically minimizes the overall error in the prediction of the result for a large number of teams. This prediction is obtained by summing the products of anywhere from one to many variables, each multiplied by a factor determined by the analysis. The error is defined as the sum of the squared differences between predicted and actual results for each member of the sample. One very important thing to remember with regression is that variables used are often not really independent, and that incorrect conclusions can be reached from the results. In football, points scored and allowed are really not independent because of the interaction between offense and defense. Also, mathematical correlation does not necessarily mean a cause-and-effect relationship. Taking all 296 team-seasons in one group, the regression analysis was used to solve this equation: (Points For)/A + (Points Against)/B = Wins + (Ties)/2 - (Games)/2 The values obtained were 36.9 for A and 37.3 for B.

  • The Nfl Indoor Championship
    115 YEARS AGO: “PUDGE” HEFFELFINGER BECOMES FIRST FOOTBALL PRO When one thinks of legendary professional football players, names like JOE NAMATH, JIM BROWN, DICK BUTKUS, JOE MONTANA or JOE GREENE probably spring to mind. Few, however, would name WILLIAM “PUDGE” HEFFELFINGER among those legends. Yet Heffelfinger was the player who preceded all of these superstars. On November 12, 1892 – 115 years go – at Recreation Park on Pittsburgh’s North Side, “Pudge” Heffelfinger became the first- ever professional football player. The Allegheny Athletic Association and the Pittsburgh Athletic Club were fierce intra-city rivals. The two teams had played to a previous 6-6 tie in front of 3,000 fans on Columbus Day in 1892. Heffelfinger had been an All-American at Yale from 1889-91 and was the most revered football player in the nation at the time. For that reason, the Allegheny Athletic Association decided to pay Heffelfinger $25 in expenses and a cash bonus of $500 to play for its squad in the rematch against the PAC. Before a crowd of 5,000, Heffelfinger led the AAA team to a 4-0 victory over the PAC team. In the first half, the ex-Yale hero, playing guard, forced a fumble, recovered it and returned it for the game’s only touchdown. On that day, “Pudge” Heffelfinger and the Allegheny Athletic Association began 115 years of professional football. A breakdown of “Pudge” Heffelfinger: Position Height Weight High School College Guard 6-3 195 Central HS (Minneapolis, MN) Yale University • Was a member of the first three All-America teams (1889-91).

  • Terrell Davis
    Terrell Davis Running back Terrell Davis was selected in the sixth round, 196th player overall, of the 1995 NFL Draft by the Denver Broncos. The little-known back made a big splash when earned a starting role at tailback as a rookie. He strung together four spectacular seasons before a devastating knee injury, that limited him to just 17 games over his final three seasons, prematurely ended his pro career. Davis, despite missing the final two games of his rookie campaign with a hamstring tear, eclipsed the 1,000-yard mark and also added a career-high 49 receptions for 367 yards in 1995. Davis improved his rushing total in each of the next three seasons. In his second year, he was named the Offensive Player of the Year when he ran for 1,538 yards and 13 TDs. Davis rushed for 1,750 yards and a league-high 15 TDs in 1997; and in 1998 became just the fourth runner in NFL history to rush for 2,000 yards in a season. He gained 2,008 yards and again led the NFL with 21 rushing touchdowns to spark the Broncos to a 14-2 regular season record en route to Denver’s second straight Super Bowl title. Davis shined in the Broncos biggest games as evidenced by him stringing together a NFL playoff record seven straight 100-yard performances spanning the 1997 and ’98 postseasons capped by Denver winning back-to-back Super Bowls. He opened the 1997 playoffs with a 184-yard effort against the Jacksonville Jaguars in the AFC Wild Card Game followed by 101 yards versus the Kansas City Chiefs in the divisional playoff and 139 yards rushing yards in the win over the Pittsburgh Steelers in the AFC Championship Game.
