The Official 2015/2016 NFL Thread

This has been our home for 55 years, and I want to keep the team here and provide the world-class stadium experience you deserve.

So as long as the tax payers help pay for it and I get to keep all the revenue sources to myself & the team.

So let's say that in a 6-year period, you win 4 Super Bowls. That's like, kinda awesome.

this is certainly more fun to debate than the Browns...

this was about superbowl MVPs. Harris earned one, as did Allen. for his MVP game, Harris had 34 attempts for 159 yds and a TD. Allen was 20 for 192 and 2 TDs. None of the other 3 superbowls that Harris was in was he prolific, unless you want to count a Bettis-like '79 where he went 20-46yds and 2 TDs. so if career stats are counting in the rankings, Harris should have lost a few spots because of his future work beyond the awesome (yet not as good Allen's stats) '74 SB.

Naw, Harris earned one, Allen was given one...in that Super Bowl, the MVP was not Allen it was the entire Raiders defense. The Redskins scored 541 pts that season and had the most unstoppable offense in the history of the NFL...and yet the Raiders stopped them cold. :teeth

:thumbup You could say the same thing about the Steel Curtain. Additionally, the Redskins point differential and takeaway ratio was best in the league, suggesting their defense was top-notch. And on top of that, they actually won time of possession, so it wasn't the Raiders forcing nothing but three-and-outs

"Here's how the MVP performances stack up against one another."

It's not about a 6yr period...it's about a single game performance. And Marcus Allen had better numbers than Harris.

Matuzak, Alzado, Long, Hendricks, how could you not love that frenzied pack of 'roided out psychopaths. That was a really enjoyable defense. :laughing
 
Didn't Matt Millen play MLB on that squad as well?

That D was a clan of roided out Hanover Fists.

Of course they were, those were the only guys who did more hookers and blow than the Movie Stars. We moved to Santa Rosa from NY when I was a kid and in the late 70's/early 80's, it was pretty much just a sleepy one horse town and a cow town at that, with only a single strip club. When the Raiders came to do Spring Training in Santa Rosa, EVERYBODY knew it. :laughing

I think Howie Long got the only big picture deal of the bunch though.

I should have said tv too. I think Alzado was in some various tv shows. The Tooz too...

"Matuszak became a fairly successful actor in the 1980s, making appearances in movies and on television, often portraying football players or gentle giants. His first major role was in the 1979 movie North Dallas Forty as a football player. He appeared in the movies Caveman, The Ice Pirates, One Man Force, and One Crazy Summer but is frequently remembered as deformed captive Sloth in The Goonies, the make-up for which took five hours to apply.[4] Matuszak's character Sloth wears an Oakland Raiders shirt in some scenes. He had numerous guest appearances in TV shows such as Perfect Strangers, M*A*S*H, The Dukes of Hazzard, Hunter, Silver Spoons, The A-Team, 1st & Ten, Miami Vice and Cheers."

Holy Shit, was Carl Weathers a Raider? I thought he played for Washington? My plan is still to run a campaign to make him Governor of Georgia so I can have 3 State Governors on the Helicopter in predator.
 
Don't forget Fred "The Hammer" Williamson, a Raider in the early 60's:

You may remember him from such movies as "Black Caesar", "Hell Up In Harlem", and "From Dusk til Dawn".

... and Ben Davidson:

He was in "Conan the Barbarian".
