    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.
  • Eagles' Team Travel

    Eagles' Team Travel

    PRO FOOTBALL HALL OF FAME TEACHER ACTIVITY GUIDE 2019-2020 EDITIOn PHILADELPHIA EAGLES Team History The Eagles have been a Philadelphia institution since their beginning in 1933 when a syndicate headed by the late Bert Bell and Lud Wray purchased the former Frankford Yellowjackets franchise for $2,500. In 1941, a unique swap took place between Philadelphia and Pittsburgh that saw the clubs trade home cities with Alexis Thompson becoming the Eagles owner. In 1943, the Philadelphia and Pittsburgh franchises combined for one season due to the manpower shortage created by World War II. The team was called both Phil-Pitt and the Steagles. Greasy Neale of the Eagles and Walt Kiesling of the Steelers were co-coaches and the team finished 5-4-1. Counting the 1943 season, Neale coached the Eagles for 10 seasons and he led them to their first significant successes in the NFL. Paced by such future Pro Football Hall of Fame members as running back Steve Van Buren, center-linebacker Alex Wojciechowicz, end Pete Pihos and beginning in 1949, center-linebacker Chuck Bednarik, the Eagles dominated the league for six seasons. They finished second in the NFL Eastern division in 1944, 1945 and 1946, won the division title in 1947 and then scored successive shutout victories in the 1948 and 1949 championship games. A rash of injuries ended Philadelphia’s era of domination and, by 1958, the Eagles had fallen to last place in their division. That year, however, saw the start of a rebuilding program by a new coach, Buck Shaw, and the addition of quarterback Norm Van Brocklin in a trade with the Los Angeles Rams.

    BUFFALO BILLS Team History

    PRO FOOTBALL HALL OF FAME TEACHER ACTIVITY GUIDE 2020-2021 EDITIOn QUARTERBACK JIM KELLY - hall of fame class of 2002 BUFFALO BILLS Team History The Buffalo Bills began their pro football life as the seventh team to be admitted into the new American Football League. The franchise was awarded to Ralph C. Wilson on October 28, 1959. Since that time, the Bills have experienced extended periods of both championship dominance and second-division frustration. The Bills’ first brush with success came in their fourth season in 1963 when they tied for the AFL Eastern division crown but lost to the Boston Patriots in a playoff. In 1964 and 1965 however, they not only won their division but defeated the San Diego Chargers each year for the AFL championship. Head Coach Lou Saban, who was named AFL Coach of the Year each year, departed after the 1965 season. Buffalo lost to the Kansas City Chiefs in the 1966 AFL title game and, in doing so, just missed playing in the first Super Bowl. Then the Bills sank to the depths, winning only 13 games while losing 55 and tying two in the next five seasons. Saban returned in 1972, utilized the Bills’ superstar running back, O. J. Simpson, to the fullest extent and made the Bills competitive once again. That period was highlighted by the 2,003-yard rushing record set by Simpson in 1973. But Saban departed in mid-season 1976 and the Bills again sank into the second division until a new coach, Chuck Knox, brought them an AFC Eastern division title in 1980.

    (1994) the Pro Football Hall of Fame

    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 16, No. 5 (1994) THE PRO FOOTBALL HALL OF FAME - THE BEGINNING By Chris Willis The Professional Football Hall of Fame located in Canton, Ohio was built to pay tribute to those players, coaches, and contributors whose outstanding feats have helped the growth of Amercia's favorite sport. For a football fan, the Hall of Fame is a nostalgic trip back through time, to reminisce about a Gale Sayers run, a Johnny Unitas to Ray Berry touchdown pass, a jarring Dick Butkus tackle, or the kicking "Toe" of Lou Groza. My first opportunity to visit the Hall of Fame came in the summer of 1985. 1 was one of 13,000 people who gathered in front of the Hall to witness, what many experts have called the second greatest class ever to be inducted (behind the charter class of 1963). The Class of '85 was comprised of football legends, such as Joe Namath, Pete Rozelle, O.J. Simpson, Roger Staubach, and old-timer's selection Frank Gatski. My memories from this ceremony are ones that I will never forget; it was a unforgettable scene. Ever since that first visit, I've been a big fan of the Hall of Fame, and starting in 1989 I've made my yearly visit to the Hall coincide with the enshrinement ceremonies and "Football's Greatest Weekend." How did I get so lucky to live only two hours away, in Columbus, Ohio, from football's greatest shrine? By the way, how did Canton become the home of the Pro Football Hall of Fame? I am glad you asked.

    MY Brothers Keep – Louis Merrins #26 Guns – the rear, Vietnam Writer’s Notes – My last story – The end of time with 173rd Airborne Unit _____________________ After clearing Brigade Headquarters in Bien Hoi, Ron and I had to wait four hours for a transport down to Tans Son Nut Air Base. It was 1930 hours when the plane finally stopped and we exited. Both of us were dressed in new fatigues with all our rank and insignias sewn on. Everything we owned was in our duffel bags, which we were dragging along with us. Our orders read that we were to report to Headquarters Company C, 52nd Infantry, 716th MP Battalion, Saigon. Having found Saigon, the rest would be easy. There was a large terminal with plenty of activity going on. I figured that was where we would find help. Leading the way with Ron bringing up the rear, I headed for the building. I entered the terminal and held the door for Ron. His uniform was already soaked from the short walk across the tarmac. Even though it could not have been more than 100 yards, the temperature and humidity was already cooking us. The concrete apron was like a giant frying pan. Even though both Ron and I were field tough, the weight of the bags combined with the heat brought out the sweat in a hurry. Ron was maybe 125 pounds now that he was soaking wet. I smiled at him. "Fuck you, Sarge," he said with a smile on his face. I guess mine was not the perfect poker face, and he had read my thoughts.

    2020 Packers Activity Guide

    PRO FOOTBALL HALL OF FAME TEACHER ACTIVITY GUIDE 2020-2021 EDITIOn quarterback Brett Favre - Hall of fame class of 2016 GREEn BAY PACKERS Team History The incredible saga of the Green Bay Packers began in August 1919, when the Indian Packing Company agreed to sponsor a local pro football team under the direction of Earl (Curly) Lambeau. In 1921, the Packers were granted a membership in the new National Football League. Today, they rank as the third oldest team in pro football. The long and storied history of the Green Bay team is one of struggle, until comparatively recent, for financial survival off the field and playing stability on the field. The Packers’ record has been punctuated with periods of both the highest success and the deepest depths of defeat. Many great football players have performed for the Green Bay team but two coaches, Lambeau and Vince Lombardi, rank as the most dominant figures in the Packers’ epic. Between the two, Lambeau and Lombardi brought the Packers 11 NFL championships, including two record strings of three straight titles, the first in 1929, 1930 and 1931 and the second in 1965, 1966 and 1967. Those last three championships completed the Packers’ dynasty years in the 1960s, which began with Green Bay also winning NFL championships in 1961 and 1962. During the late 1930s and early 1940s, the Lambeau-led Packers were annual championship contenders. They won four divisional crowns and 3 NFL titles. Individually, Lambeau, Lombardi and 24 long-time Packers greats are enshrined in the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
