Yes. It was this way until they went to the North,South,East,West divisions
posted by Ironman92Cant remember. They were the St Louis Cardinals? I do remember Seattle being in the AFC back with Curt Warner as stud Rb
Yes, they were in St Louis. Cards moved to AZ and the Rams moved from LA to STL then back to LA.

Being intrigued by your question, I did a little hunting and found this excerpt from an article from a website called Pro-Reference.com:
"The same year that the AFL was formed, the NFL expanded south and west as well. The Dallas Cowboys began play under first time coach Tom Landry in 1960. The Cowboys were nominally designated as a member of the Western Division, but actually played each of the other twelve teams once (going 0-11-1). The remaining teams played each division opponent twice (10 games), one game against the expansion Cowboys, and one other game against a team from the other division. The Cardinals also ended a forty year city rivalry with the Bears when they moved to Saint Louis prior to the 1960 season.
In 1961, the NFL balanced the number of teams to fourteen by adding another expansion team, the Minnesota Vikings. The Vikings were placed in the Western Division, and of course, Dallas was moved to the East. The addition of Minnesota forced the league to go to a 14-game schedule, matching the AFL. Each division opponent played each other twice (12 games), plus two additional games against two opponents from the other division. The winners of each division continued to meet in a championship game. The NFL kept this same format through 1965."
Thinking about something here.
You know what is crazy?
A few yrs ago, we'd run a gadget play and it would almost always end up in a turnover: IE FB Option Pass by Vickers, or Toss Sweep to Armond fucking Smith on 4th and 1. SMFH
Now we run a gadget play with our lefty WR chucking the ball deep to Breshard FUCKING Perimann for 60+ yd plays. That's wild.

If they don't keep Perriman I think it would be dumb. They've resurrected that guys career. Would be ironic if he caught the game winning TD on Sunday.

Lot of credit needs to go to kitchens for that. He’s so good with gadget plays and unique formations.

That handoff to Landry, the first time they ran it, completely fooled me. Didn't know where the ball was until he was in the end zone.

Glad you don't play on our defense. :)
posted by SportsAndLadyAnd reading ravens fans tweets, I forgot why I hated them so much. Hope we fucking crush them and knock them out of the playoffs.
Yeah, fuck the Rats. After seeing shit posted by them on Facebook like "when we're leading the Browns by 21, early in the 3rd quarter, how many fans will be left at Heinz Field?" Screw those assholes. Hope the Browns bury them and Mayfield plants a Browns flag right though the Ravens logo at mid-field.
Anyone see the 12 minute mic’d up Browns video? I fucking love Baker

They are, but so are the fans who are donating money to pay his fine. He's a millionaire. He can pay it.

Agreed
Pumped for today. Hate waiting until 4:25 though.
Let's fuck up the Ravens today....can't believe next to no "experts" are giving the Browns much of a chance today
Peppers burned on the 4th down, then burned on the pass downfield...hope he’s not channeling his inner ttun
Baker with a bad pick but Calloway didn’t help. Defense stops Ravens to only yield a fg. Chubb looked good on first drive

The experts I’ve listened to today love the Ravens and their defense and AFC teams don’t want the Ravens in the playoffs.
*Note these are same guys that were on that “so and so might have to travel to Pittsburgh in the playoffs” just 2 weeks ago

also don’t believe most of NFL people have really watched the Browns to know they are actually pretty good and formidable
