Re: How would the history of Pro Football have changed if...

Here's another one that came to mind:

What if John Madden had gone back into coaching in the mid '90s. He apparently thought very hard about it when Jimmy Johnson went to Miami and thought he'd give it a go. I'm not sure exactly what made him stay in the booth but i'm sure glad he did. Madden 2.0 would probably end up a lot like Art Shell 2.0.

What if the Atlanta Falcons wouldnt have picked Favre in the draft and he went to Ron Wolf and the Jets instead? Would the Jets have two super bowls in their history? Maybe more?

What if the Fumble/the Drive/etc would've never happened and the Browns D held Denver from a touchdown and Byner went in for the score? Would the Browns go on to win a Super Bowl in any of those years?

What if the tuck rule didn't exist? Would my team have won 3 bowls?

What if the Oilers dont blow that huge lead against Buffalo in 93 playoffs? Do go to the Super Bowl and beat the Cowboys? If they do, do they end up staying in Houston instead of moving to Nashville and becoming the Titans?

What if Carson Palmer didn't blow his knee out against he Steelers in the playoffs? Do they win the game (they beat Pitt twice in the regular season) and go on to beat the Seahawks (who Pitt beat) to win the SB?

One can dream.

What if Franco Harris would have been one more yard away? What if Dwight Clark would have been a step or two slower?

As far as the Oilers question, there is no doubt that they would still be the Houston Oilers to this day. I'm sure one of the reasons they moved was lack of success. Yeah they had two championships, but they were in '60 and '61 and in the 8-team AFL. If they would have even went to the Super Bowl that year, not necessarily win it, there could possibly be no Houston Texans, and the expansion team in 2002 would most likely go to LA.

What if Jerry Jones hired a GM?

What if whatshisname doesn't drop the game-winning touchdown in the SuperBowl against the Steelers?

What if Jimmy Johnson didnt let his players do more or less whatever they wanted off the field?

What if Minnesota was smart enough to NOT make the Herschel Walker trade?
