Think You Know Football?

[River Rat]

This was given to me back in the 80's. I guessed many, got them right...the others was puzzling so I had help. I wrote all the answers down on a separate sheet, well needless to say I found the one paper with the questions, can't find the one with the answers. 2 still have me baffled. Hopefully, you can figure them all out. Good Luck!

Well let's see, in the 80's the Panthers,Jaguars,Ravens or the Texans didn't exist and the Titans were the Oilers so....
1-Colts
2-Buccaneers
3-Dolphins
4-Packers
5-Patriots
6-Browns
7-Redskins
8-Eagles
9-Seahawks
10-Lions
11-49ers
12-Falcons
13-Bears
14-Rams
15-Bills
16-Chargers
17-Raiders
18-Oilers
19-Cowboys
20-Chiefs
21-Saints
22-Giants
23-Bengals
24-Seahawks
25-Cardinals
26-Steelers
27-Jets
28-Broncos

I think that's right. Only by process of elimination did I get the Patriots so I might have switched something around. I still don't get the clue for it.

Yeah right. I kinda figured someone would have corrected my mistake before you had to. Now, about the Superbowl this year......... my prediction- Pats and the Packers with the Packers upsetting the Pats in the fourth quarter ending their "perfect season" and giving Favre a heros goodbye in his final season as he decides to retire and at the end of the game makes the announcement to everyone. Final score 31-27







Sounds good anyway!
