Crazy, Fun, Incredible NFL Stats. 

Post#1 » by Stoked » Fri Nov 4, 2016 2:24 am

Since the NFL merger in 1970 the Broncos, Steelers and Pats have represented the AFC 24 times. Over 50%

No team has ever three peated in the modern NFL era(1970). And only 1 before then. Packers in 66, 67, 68.

In the modern NFL (1970) there has only been 1 draft that did not have a QB drafted in the first round.

"Apollo Creed" played two seasons with the Raiders in the 1960s

The Denver Broncos scored the most points in an NFL season in 2013 with 606 points.

Feel free to add.

Tony Dorsett's NFL Record 99yard TD run against the Vikings... only ten men on the field for the Cowboys. Ron Springs was supposed to get the ball but he ran off the field in error.

Justin Houston almost broke Michael Strahan's sack record in 2014 with 22 (contrary to Strahan's 22.5) yet almost nobody realized that.

What I still find so incredible to this day, the mastery of Tom Landry in the 1964 NFL Draft. 3 Hall Of Famer's in one draft. Round 2, Hall of famer Mel Renfro. Round 7 hall of famer, Bob Hayes and round 10, hall of famer and legend, Roger Staubach.

In 2015, the Kansas City Chiefs went from 1-5 to the playoffs. The following year, the Carolina Panthers did the same thing :wink:
