Eventual NFL Division Realignment.....

Back in the day Pittsburgh and Cleveland had an epic rivalry going on but that cooled down in the last decade as the Browns haven't been able to put together a winning team like the Steelers have done consistently.The Baltimore Ravens sort of took over that role as the Steelers arch rival.

 

Rams and Niners pretty much dominated the old NFC West.

 

I started watching football as a kid in the mid 1980's and i always remember Neil Lomax being a pretty good quarterback and they had Anderson at running back but they just couldn't seem to get a winning team going.

 

Most people here if your old enough to remember is before Brett Favre came along Green Bay pretty much sucked through the entire 1970's and 1980's.Yeah they went to the first couple Super Bowls in the late 60's but after Lombardi they were toast for many years.If you remember the Minnesota Vikings just dominated the old NFC Central pretty much the entire 1970's but were the Buffalo Bills of the 70's losing four Super Bowls.

 

I first got into football when my father asked me if i wanted to try out as a ten year old back in '84.Immediately i was obsessed with NFL and started memorizing all the trivia,teams,divisions and started collecting Topps cards.First Super Bowl i ever watched was Dan Marino led Dolphins lose to Montana and the 49ers.In fact i was originally a Raiders and Steelers for many years here in Tennessee until the Titans finally came along.Once we got us a team here i've been a fan of the Titans and no longer really follow Pittsburgh or Oakland.

Oh and by the time i was a fan of the Raiders and Steelers in the mid 1980's both of those teams pretty much sucked,lol.Mark Malone was Steelers QB and Marc Wilson was QB for the Raiders.I think i might've saw Plunkett a few times.Man i do remember absolutely despising the Dallas Cowboys and still do twenty six odd years later.
