The compilation of the All-America roster was supervised by a panel of analysts working in large part with the historical records contained in the files of the Dr. Baker Football Information Service. The roster consists of only those players who were first-team selections on one or more of the All-America teams that were selected for the national audience and received nationwide circulation. Not included are the thousands of players who received mention on All-America second or third teams, nor the numerous others who were selected by newspapers or agencies with circulations that were not primarily national and with viewpoints, therefore, that were not normally nationwide in scope. The following chart indicates, by year (in left column), which national media and organizations selected All-America teams.

  • La Batalla De La Nfc Oeste Del Lunes Por La Noche Sobresale En La Décima Semana
    SE SOLICITA SU DIFUSIÓN 05/11/19 http://twitter.com/nfl345 Notas de la NFL de la décima semana LA BATALLA DE LA NFC OESTE DEL LUNES POR LA NOCHE SOBRESALE EN LA DÉCIMA SEMANA Para ayudar a celebrar la 100ª temporada de la NFL, cada semana tendrá un Partido de la semana NFL100. Cada juego será un guiño a enfrentamientos trascendentales disputados en la historia, una rivalidad feroz cimentada durante décadas, un duelo de equipos originales y/o un juego en el que quedó en los anales. La NFL designó el duelo del domingo ATLANTA FALCONS-NEW ORLEANS SAINTS como el Partido de la Semana NFL100 porque es un buen recuerdo del emocionante apertura de temporada en casa de los Saints en 2006, cuando el equipo encendió el resurgimiento de una comunidad devastada por el huracán Katrina. En un momento electrizante en el Superdome el 25 de septiembre de 2006, STEVE GLEASON bloqueó un despeje en el primer período y CURTIS DELOATCH recuperó el balón en la zona de anotación, una anotación inicial vigorizante en el primer juego de temporada regular en la ciudad desde el 24 de diciembre de 2004. Alentados por los triunfos, los invictos Saints (3-0) alcanzaron el Juego de Campeonato de la NFC, y tres años más tarde ganaron el Super Bowl. El partido también marcó el primer duelo en casa en su carrera en New Orleans del líder histórico de la NFL en yardas pasando, DREW BREES. LA ESPERANZA ES LO ÚTIMO QUE SE PIERDE. A lo largo de las primeras nueve semanas de la temporada 2019, cuatro equipos –los BUFFALO BILLS (6-2), GREEN BAY PACKERS (7- 2), MINNESOTA VIKINGS (6-3) y SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS (8-0)– están en posición de postemporada tras haberse perdido la postemporada un año atrás.

  • Nfc West Battle on Monday Night Highlights Week 10
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 11/5/19 http://twitter.com/nfl345 NFC WEST BATTLE ON MONDAY NIGHT HIGHLIGHTS WEEK 10 To help celebrate the NFL’s 100th season, each week will feature an NFL 100 Game of the Week. Each game is a nod to a momentous game played, a fierce rivalry that spans decades, a matchup of original teams and/or a game in which history was made. The NFL has designated Sunday’s ATLANTA FALCONS-NEW ORLEANS SAINTS matchup as the NFL100 Game of the Week because the contest is a nod to the momentous 2006 Saints home-opener, when the team sparked the resurgence of a community devastated by Hurricane Katrina. In an electrifying moment at the Superdome on September 25, 2006, STEVE GLEASON blocked a first-quarter punt and CURTIS DELOATCH recovered the ball in the end zone, an uplifting initial score in the city’s first regular-season game since December 26, 2004. Buoyed by the win, the 3-0 Saints advanced to the NFC Championship game, and three years later won the Super Bowl. The game also marked the first home contest in the New Orleans career of the NFL’s all-time passing-yards leader, DREW BREES. HOPE SPRINGS ETERNAL: Through the first nine weeks of the 2019 season, four teams – the BUFFALO BILLS (6-2), GREEN BAY PACKERS (7-2), MINNESOTA VIKINGS (6-3) and SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS (8-0) – are in playoff position after missing the postseason a year ago. From 1990-2018 – a streak of 29 consecutive years – at least four teams have qualified for the playoffs in every season that were not in the postseason the year before.

For instance, just when you thought Indianapolis might run the table, it came back to the rest of the league. When it looked like Baltimore might be in trouble with two consecutive October losses and little scoring, it reeled off nine wins in its last 10 games. But for pure unpredictability, look no further than Nashville. The Tennessee Titans lost their first five games and seven of their first nine before reeling off six wins in a row behind the Associated Press’ Offensive Rookie of the Year, quarterback VINCE YOUNG, to go into the final week of the season with a chance at the playoffs. “Nothing in the NFL should surprise anyone,” says Seattle Seahawks head coach MIKE HOLMGREN. “Anybody’s capable of beating anyone else. You only play 16 games. That’s why the NFL is at the height of its popularity.” There was one team that seemed to sail through the season unscathed – the San Diego Chargers, builders of the league’s best record (14-2). “Marty Ball” took on a whole new meaning in the exuberant production of LA DAINIAN TOMLINSON, AP’s NFL Most Valuable Player of ’06.

  • It's Time for Turkey, Tiebreakers & A
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE NFL-REG-12 11/21/06 IT’S TIME FOR TURKEY, TIEBREAKERS & A THANKSGIVING TRIPLEHEADER The NFL menu is bursting with goodies this Thanksgiving weekend. There’s the tradition of family and football…a first-time NFL Thanksgiving Day tripleheader…the beginning of the “tiebreaker season” (Chicago can clinch its division)…and a whole package of unpredictable games. And DERRICK BROOKS can’t wait! The Tampa Bay Buccaneers veteran linebacker will finally play on Thanksgiving and he’s ecstatic. “I’ve been hoping for this chance for 12 years,” says Brooks of his game on Thursday against Dallas. “Everyone is watching, including the troops overseas. That’s exciting for our team.” There will be three NFL games this Thursday, the first Thanksgiving tripleheader of the modern era. There are the traditional games in Detroit and Dallas which will be followed by a primetime contest in Kansas City that marks the debut of an eight-game Thursday and Saturday night NFL Network package – the first regular season games carried by the network. A preview of the NFL Thanksgiving tripleheader: • MIAMI DOLPHINS at DETROIT LIONS (CBS, 12:30 PM ET): Former Lions first-round draft choice JOEY HARRINGTON returns to face the club he quarterbacked from 2002-05. Detroit, hosting its 67th Thanksgiving game, will confront a team with three consecutive wins, reminiscent of Miami’s six victories in a row to conclude 2005. The Dolphins will have to defend against the NFL’s fifth-ranked passing game. • TAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS at DALLAS COWBOYS (FOX, 4:15 PM ET): Two young quarterbacks experiencing their first year of NFL action go at it – Bucs rookie BRUCE GRADKOWSKI and Cowboys four-year vet TONY ROMO, who has built a 3-1 record in his first regular season play.
