    3-week road trips in the NFL are never to be scoffed at.
    Especially late in the season.

      Except for the Dolphins! They preserved that 1972 perfect season.

        ' 72 Dolphins vs. '85 Bears would be one of those interesting games.

          1985

          My father took fifty cents off a poor little kid who was supporting the home team when he let me take the Pats in the Superbowl.

            The 1985 Bears were so absurdly sick in the playoffs that I'm not sure any team can be compared to them until the playoffs are over.

            They outscored their opponents 91-10 in the playoffs. That is so ****ing astonishing.

              IIRC the '46' defense was relatively new then. That plus their talented players made them tough on D.

                Talent first, scheme second. It was spectacular mostly because they had Mike Singletary and Richard Dent and company. It's not like if a team randomly came up with a 3-5 defense, it would be impossible to move the ball against them.

                        Really cool site... but I wonder what they use.

                        It seems they the the 89 San Francisco 49ers and the 85 Chicago Bears are even, with home field usually deciding it, but I wonder what's behind the scores.

                                I'm tired of all the bears talk. Everyone is jumping on the bandwagon, but I refuse to. yeah the running game was more impressive, but Seattle isn't as good as they were last year.

                                They will go far in the playoffs, but I'm certain they won't win the superbowl.
