Pro Football Hall of Fame Top Twenty Scorers
THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 16. No. 3 (1994) PRO FOOTBALL HALL OF FAME TOP TWENTY SCORERS CANTON, OHIO – Nick Lowery of the Kansas City Chiefs registered another strong season in 1993 to continue his climb in the Pro Football Hall of Fame’s Top Twenty scoring display. One of the biggest attention-getters at the Pro Football Hall of Fame, the Top Twenty display lists in an attractive, four-sided, translited pylon the leading lifetime statistical leaders in rushing, receiving, passing and scoring. All four sides of the display are updated weekly throughout every NFL season. The Hall of Fame listings differ from all other similar rankings in that statistics from the All-America Football Conference are included as well as those from the American and National Football Leagues. Among the Top Twenty scorers, only Lou Groza of the Cleveland Browns played in the AAFC. Counting his four years in the AAFC, Groza ranks third all-time with 1,608 points. Without his 259 points that came in the AAFC, Groza would be No. 9. Lowery’s 106-point output in 1993 allowed him to jump four places to No. 4 among the scoring elite. The 14-year NFL veteran now trails only three Hall of Famers – George Blanda, Jan Stenerud and Groza. Several other kickers active during the 1993 NFL season advanced among the upper echelon of players ranked in the Pro Football Hall of Fame’s Top Twenty scoring display. Like fine wine, 13-season veteran Eddie Murray seems to get better with age. He joined the Dallas Cowboys in Week 3 of the season and booted a career-best 122 points to move him three places into 10th place. -

1967 APBA PRO FOOTBALL SET ROSTER the Following Players Comprise the 1967 Season APBA Pro Football Player Card Set
1967 APBA PRO FOOTBALL SET ROSTER The following players comprise the 1967 season APBA Pro Football Player Card Set. The regular starters at each position are listed first and should be used most frequently. Realistic use of the players below will generate statistical results remarkably similar to those from real life. IMPORTANT: When a Red "K" appears in the R-column as the result on any kind of running play from scrimmage or on any return, roll the dice again, refer to the K-column, and use the number there for the result. When a player has a "K" in his R-column, he can never be used for kicking or punting. If the symbol "F-K" or "F-P" appears on a players card, it means that you use the K or P column when he recovers a fumble. Players in bold are starters. If there is a difference between the player's card and the roster sheet, always use the card information. The number in ()s after the player name is the number of cards that the player has in this set. See below for a more detailed explanation of new symbols on the cards.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE NOVEMBER 11, 2020 TITANS-COLTS SUPPLEMENTAL NOTES SIMMONS MAKING PLAYS: Defensive tackle Jeffery Simmons earned his first AFC Defensive Player of the Week award after helping to produce a pair of takeaways during last Sunday’s win against the Chicago Bears. In the third quarter, he forced a fumble that resulted in a 63-yard touchdown return by Titans cornerback Desmond King II, and he added a fumble recovery in the fourth quarter. Simmons, who also batted down a pass against the Bears, increased his totals in his second NFL season to two sacks, three passes defensed, one forced fumble and two fumble recoveries. In six of the seven games he has played this season—he missed one contest while on the reserve/COVID-19 list—he has either a sack, a pass defensed, a forced fumble or a fumble recovery. Simmons is one of only three NFL defensive linemen this season with a minimum of two sacks, three passes defensed, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery.

Rote & Blanda: Tale of 2
THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 16, No. 3 (1994) ROTE & BLANDA: TALE OF 2 QBS Birth of the AFL in 1960 changed the course of two careers By Bob Gill Any reasonably attentive sports fan is aware that chance can play a significant role in a player's career. An injury can give a backup his big break, while bringing a veteran's career to a premature end. A star's ill-timed holdout can be another player's ticket to fame and fortune. And so on - it happens every season. Usually, breaks like these benefit rookies or younger players who haven't had a chance at a regular job. But one of the most interesting "right-place-at-the-right-time" stories involves a pair of ten-year veterans whose places in football history were determined after their NFL careers ended. It happened in the 1960s, and the players involved were a couple of pretty fair quarterbacks: George Blanda and Tobin Rote. But let's start at the beginning ... Blanda broke in with the Bears in 1949, but the 12th-round draft choice saw little action behind Johnny Lujack and aging Sid Luckman. He played even less at QB for the next two years, throwing only one pass and spending most of his time as a linebacker and kicker. Meanwhile, Rote had been taken by the Packers in the second round of the 1950 draft and suffered through a tough rookie season, throwing a league-high 24 interceptions. Facing a challenge from a talented passer named Bobby Thomason in 1951, he improved his passing stats and really shone as a runner, leading the team with 523 yards and leading the league with an average of 6.9 yards per carry. -

Week 5 NFL Preview
FOR USE AS DESIRED 10/6/20 COMEBACKS CONTINUE, SEVERAL TEAMS OFF TO HISTORIC STARTS AS NFL ENTERS WEEK 5 Hope thrives in the NFL. Just ask any of the teams that have erased leads of at least 16 points and won a game in 2020: the DALLAS COWBOYS, TAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS, WASHINGTON FOOTBALL TEAM or the CHICAGO BEARS, who’ve actually done it twice. This year is the first in which at least one team has overcome a deficit of 16-or-more points and won in each of the first four weeks of the season in NFL history. And while comebacks in games are frequent of late, comebacks in seasons the year after missing the playoffs are common as well. Six teams that missed the 2019 playoffs have started this season with three wins: the CHICAGO BEARS (3-1), CLEVELAND BROWNS (3-1), INDIANAPOLIS COLTS (3-1), LOS ANGELES RAMS (3-1), PITTSBURGH STEELERS (3-0) and TAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS (3-1). Since 1990, at least four teams each season have qualified for the playoffs after missing the postseason the year before. The Week 5 schedule highlights two games involving those clubs. The Buccaneers travel to Chicago for a Thursday Night Football matchup (8:20 PM ET, FOX/NFLN/Amazon) while the Colts head to Cleveland on Sunday to meet the Browns (4:25 PM ET, CBS). Cleveland and wide receiver ODELL BECKHAM JR., who recorded 154 scrimmage yards (81 receiving, 73 rushing) and three touchdowns (two receiving, one rushing) in the Browns' 49-38 win in Week 4, have the AFC’s top scoring offense (31.0 points per game) and lead the NFL in both takeaways (10) and turnover margin (plus six). -

He is aggressive in reacting to the ball, but that can get him into trouble. He is quick to jump a route, but if his timing is not correct, the receiver gets the ball and makes a play, sometimes for a touchdown. However, when his timing is correct, he has a big impact on the outcome of the game. He is always around the ball and willing to make a play. He made excellent tackles, but there were times where he struggled in his tackling technique. Overall, an excellent player.

Ranking Outstanding Sports Records
Ranking Outstanding Sports Records by Bruce L. Golden R. H. Smith School of Business Univ. of Maryland and Edward A. Wasil Kogod College of Business Admin. American University 10/87 Goal of Paper 1. Address several key questions -- - What makes a “great” sports record? - What factors separate “good” records from “great” records? - What are the “great” sports records? 2. Rank the greatest active sports records – - season records - career or multiple-year records - daily or single-game records 1 Motivation 1. It’s fun to argue the merits of your favorite sports records. E.g., - Ted Williams vs. Joe DiMaggio? - Eric Dickerson vs. O. J. Simpson? - Michael Jordan vs. Wilt Chamberlain? - Will Beamon’s record fall by 1990? 2. It’s a challenge since comparison of sports records must be carried out in a rigorous and comprehensive manner and employ a formal ranking method. 2 Two Levels of Paper 1. Sports fans should find paper to be thought- provoking. 2. Nontrivial application of analytic hierarchy process (AHP). - data requirements are numerous - subjective judgments are required - each hierarchy is full - complicating issues 3 The Records Themselves 1. Measurable achievements 2. Relatively recent (after 1920) 3. Historical data available 4. Professional athletes in team sports (primarily) 4 Great Season Records Sport Athlete Year Record Hitting Streak B Joe DiMaggio 1941 56 Home Runs B Roger Maris 1961 61 Slugging Average B Babe Ruth 1920 .847 Runs Batted In B Hack Wilson 1930 190 Scoring Average BA Wilt 1961-62 50.4 Chamberlain Yards Gained Rushing F Eric Dickerson 1984 2105 Points Scored F Paul Hornung 1960 176 Points Scored H Wayne Gretzky 1985-86 215 B: Baseball BA: Basketball F: Football H: Hockey 5 Great Career Records Sport Athlete Year Record Home Runs B Henry Aaron 1954-76 755 Stolen Bases B Lou Brock 1961-79 938 Hits B Pete Rose 1963-86 4256 Slugging Average B Babe Ruth 1914-35 .690 Strikeouts B Nolan Ryan 1966-86 4277 Points Scored BA K.
