Report

The 2020 National Football League season kicked off on 11th September 2020 with the Kansas City Chiefs defeating the Houston Texans 34-20 in a Thursday Night Game.

After 5 weeks the only undefeated teams were Buffalo Bills (4-0), Pittsburgh Steelers (4-0), Tennessee Titans (3-0) in the AFC and Green Bay Packers (4-0) and Seattle Seahawks (5-0) in the NFC. One game in week 4 and two in week 5 had to be postponed, including two Titans games, due to positives in the camps of a number of teams.

By the end of October (Week 7) Pittsburgh Steelers (6-0, AFC North) were the only undefeated team in the league. Kansas City Chiefs (6-1, AFC West), Tennessee Titans (5-1, AFC South) and Buffalo Bills (5-2, AFC East) were the Division leaders in the American Football Conference, while Philadelphia Eagles (2-4-1, NFC East), Tampa Bay Buccaneers (5-2, NFC South), Green Bay Packers (5-1-0, NFC North) and Seattle Seahawks (5-1-0, NFC West) were the leaders of the four National Football Conference Divisions.

By the end of November (Week 12), Pittsburgh Steelers (10-0, AFC North) were still undefeated, and defending Super Bowl Champions Kansas City Chiefs were leading the AFC West (10-1), with Buffalo Bills (8-3, AFC East) and Tennessee Titans (8-3, AFC South) still leading their divisions. In the NFC New York Giants had put together a three-game winning streak to lead the NFC East despite only being 4-7, while Green Bay Packers (8-3, NFC North), New Orleans Saints (9-2, NFC South) and Seattle Seahawks (7-3, NFC West) led their respective divisions.

By the end of the season in the first week of January the Steelers had dropped back to 12-4 but still won the AFC North with the Baltimore Ravens (11-5) making the Wild-Cards. Securing Home Field advantage for the playoffs in the AFC were the Kansas City Chiefs who won the AFC West with a 14-2 record, just ahead of AFC East Champions Buffalo Bills (13-3). The AFC South was won by Tennessee Titans on 11-5 in a tie-breaker with the Indianapolis Colts who were also made the playoffs. Cleveland Browns, also 11-5 reached the playoffs too despite finishing third in the AFC North.

The NFC saw Washington Football Team win their division, the NFC East with an historically bad 7-9 losing record. Home Field advantage for the playoffs went to Green Bay Packers (13-3, AFC North), and Seattle Seahawks (12-4, NFC West) and New Orleans Saints (12-4, NFC South) were the other Division Champions. Also making the playoffs in the NFC were Tampa Bay Buccaneers (11-5), Los Angeles Rams (10-6) and Chicago Bears (8-8).

The Wildcard Round saw Buffalo Bills, Baltimore Ravens and Cleveland Browns progress from the AFC and Los Angeles Rams, Tampa Bay Buccaneers and New Orleans Saints win through from the NFC. The Divisional Playoffs saw Buffalo Bills defeat Baltimore Ravens 17-5 and Kansas City Chiefs knock out Cleveland Browns 22-17 to make the AFC Championship which Kansas City won 38-24. The NFC Divisional Playoffs went to Green Bay Packers 32-18 against Los Angeles Rams and in the other game the Tampa Bay Buccaneers defeated New Orleans Saints 30-20. The Buccaneers reached the Super Bowl 31-26 in a close encounter with the Packers.

The Super Bowl itself was a showdown between Tom Brady’s Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Patrick Mahomes’ Kansas City Chiefs with the veteran Brady winning the contest 31-9 for the Buccaneers against the newcomer Patrick Mahomes. It was Brady’s seventh Super Bowl Ring (each Super Bowl winning team gets a jewel encrusted ring for each player), a record, higher than any team ever (Pittsburgh Steelers and San Francisco 49ers winning 6 each)

In 1976 the National Football League expanded to 28 teams with the addition of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Seattle Seahawks. In between this expansion and the relocation of the St. Louis Cardinals to Phoenix, Arizona in 1988, two Irish-born players, Neil O’Donoghue from Dublin, and John Sinnott from Wexford played in the National Football League. O’Donoghue was drafted by the Buffalo Bills in 1977, and went on to play for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers from 1978 to 1979 and St. Louis Cardinals from 1980 to 1985. Sinnott was drafted by the St. Louis Cardinals in 1978, but cut from the roster in Training Camp, and picked up by the New York Giants, where he was on the Roster from 1980 to 1981, before playing for the Baltimore Colts in 1982.

The Standings and Playoff Results of the NFL (1976-1987) are followed by the Career Statistics and Biographies of the two Irish-born Players in this period, as well as a Video Highlights reel of Neil O’Donoghue playing for the Cardinals and Buccaneers.

Honours: All-American (Auburn 1976).

Biography

Neil O’Donoghue was born in Dublin in 1953 and grew up in Clondalkin, where at the age of 12 he started playing Gaelic Football (GAA) where he excelled, being selected for the Dublin Minor Team which reached the All Ireland Final in 1970, losing to Cork. He switched codes to Soccer, scoring on his debut for Shamrock Rovers in the League of Ireland when he was 18. He played 16 games for Rovers, scoring two goals, and gaining a soccer Scholarship to St. Bernard’s College, in Alabama, the first Irishman ever to gain a Soccer Scholarship to the USA.

After the College Soccer Programme closed down he transfered to Auburn University, winning the starting Kicker position for the Tigers. In 1976 he won All-American Honours for Auburn, who play in the SEC (South Eastern Conference – traditionally the best in US College Football). He was drafted to the NFL (National Football League) in 1977 by the Buffalo Bills, playing five games before being cut from the roster and picked up by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, where he played two year, turning around a 2-26 record in the first two years of the expansion franchise to a 15-17 record.

He then signed for the St. Louis Cardinals in 1980, where he managed to set the record for points scored in a season for the team which stood for 21 years, but will probably be best remembered by the Cardinals (now Arizona Cardinals) fans for lacking clutch kicking skills, most notably missing three Field Goals in a Playoff match against the New York Giants in 1983, including a 19-yard attempt in overtime which would have won the game for St. Louis. On the last day of the season in 1984 he missed what would have been a game-winning Field Goal in the dying seconds which would have secured a Playoff place. After the 1985 season he retired. He continued to play Senior Football Championship Football for Round Towers GAA in Clondalkin during the NFL off-season.

Biography

John Sinnott was born in Wexford, Ireland in 1958, and played High School Football in Denham, Massachusetts, where he was recruited for Brown University Bears of the Ivy League in the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA). His High School Football Coach told hm that he might get injured in his first few weeks playing Football, so he should not concentrate on just Football, as his College Academic Achievement was as important, something which is not all that common these days. [Reference: 2] While at Brown, he played in the most successful Brown University Football Team in 50 years, in 1976 emulating the Iron Men of 1926 in winning their first Ivy League Chamoionship in half a century. [Reference: 8]

After College he was drafted by the St. Louis Cardinals, where he was cut from the roster during training camp. John was subsequently picked up by the New York Giants, and after two years on the squad, he was traded to the Baltimore Colts. There he played in 9 games in 1982, before injuring his back, an injury which still bothers him to this day, and retired from Football. [Reference: 11-12]

Report

1995 saw large-scale change in the National Football League. Debutants Carolina Panthers and Jacksonville Jaguars played in the Hall of Fame Game in Canton, Ohio, to open the Preseason, with the Panthers winning the battle of expansion franchises 20-14. The two Los Angeles teams also embarked for new patstures: the Rams to St. Louis and the Raiders back to Oakland. Two American Bowls were played that year – Buffalo Bills defeating Dallas Cowboys 9-7 in Toronto, Canada, and Denver Broncos winning 24-10 in Tokyo, Japan against San Francisco 49ers.

Elsewhere the Houston Oilers, a year before they left for Tennessee, played two preseason home games outside Houston: versus Washington Redskins in Knoxville, Tennessee, and Dallas Cowboys in San Antonio, Texas, losing both. Miami Dolphins and Tampa Bay Buccaneers also played a game in Orlando, Florida, with Tampa Bay Buccaneers winning, while the New England Patriots lost a ‘home’ game in Stanford, California to the Oakland Raiders, and the New York Jets similarly lost a home game versus Philadelphia Eagles at Jackson, Mississippi. Preseason Division Champions were Indianapolis Colts (3-1, AFC East), Cleveland Browns (2-2, AFC Central), Kansas City Chiefs (3-1, AFC West), Philadelphia Eagles (4-0, NFC East), Detroit Lions (3-1, NFC Central), and Carolina Panthers (3-2, NFC West). Only the Kansas City Chiefs went on to win their Division durling the Regular Season.

Report

The National Football League Preseason of 1986 featured the American Bowl ’86 in London, England, where the Chicago Bears defeated the Dallas Cowboys 17-6. The Preseason, as usual, opened with the Hall of Fame Game in Canton, Ohio, where the New England Patriots won a tight game 21-16 against the St. Louis Cardinals. After four more weeks of games, Preseason Division titles went to New England Patriots (4-1, AFC East), Cleveland Browns (4-0, AFC Central), San Diego Chargers (3-1, AFC West), New York Giants (3-1, NFC East), Chicago Bears (4-1, NFC Central), and Atlanta Falcons (2-2, NFC West). Four of these teams went on to win their Regular Season Division title, only the San Diego Chargers (who lost out to the Denver Broncos) and Atlanta Falcons who lost out to San Francisco 49ers, failed to translate Preseason form into Regular Season Championships.

Note: + No Official Standings kept in 1920. * Chicago Bears won Playoff against Portsmouth Spartans 9-0 after both teams finished tied at the top with 6 wins and 1 loss.

Note 2: Chicago Staleys are considered the same team as the Chicago Bears by the NFL. The Bears owner bought out the Decatur Staleys franchise in 1921 and moved them to Chicago, but the owner of the Staleys paid the new owner to keep the name Staleys for one year, after which they became the Chicago Bears.

Note 3: Ties were discounted in calculating W-L Winning Percentages at the time.

Report

The American Professional Football association was formed in late 1919 by the leading teams in the Ohio League (then the most pre-eminent Pro Football League in the USA) in order to provide a common set of rules and prevent players jumping from team to team in search of the biggest pay packet. The four original franchises (Canton Bulldogs, Akro Pros, Rock Island Independents and Dayton Triangles) invited the top teams from the New York Pro Football Circuit (Buffalo, Rochester, Syracuse), Pennsylvania and New York City / New Jersey Circuits to join them in forming the first true National Football League.

The League changed its name to the National Football League from APFA in 1922, and in 1932 after the League finished in a tie the first Championship Game was arranged after the season ended. Chicago Bears defeated the Portsmouth Spartans 9-0 to win the Championship. After this the decision was made to split the League into two divisions (Eastern and Western) with a pre-arranged Championship Game between the Division Winners.

The Champions of the APFA / NFL during these years were Akron Pros (1920), Chicago Staleys (1921), Canton Bulldogs (1922, 1923), Cleveland Bulldogs (1924), Chicago Cardinals (1925), Frankford Yellow Jackets (Philadelphia suburb) (1926), New York Giants (1927), Providence Steam Roller (1928), Green Bay Packers (1929-1931) and Chicago Bears (1932).

Note: Teams Ranked by 1. Number of Wins 2. Winning Percentage (Wins / Games Played)

Note 2: Brooklyn Dodgers left the League to join the AAFC in 1945 and in 1946 the AAFC merged with the NFL, although in reality what happened was the NFL took over its three most successful franchises: Baltimore Colts, Cleveland Browns and San Francisco 49ers. The Brooklyn franchise was replaced by other New York teams, which changed year on year, most called New York Yanks. Dallas Cowboys and Minnesota Vikings were expansion franchises in 1960 and 1961 respectively.

National Football League Championship Games 1933-1966 [Ref: 1]

Report

The National Football League played its first Championship Game in 1933, the first year the League was divided in to Eastern and Western Divisions. In 1960 the American Football League, one of many to use that name, became so successful, it forced a merger with the NFl, with the two League playing the first Super Bowl between their respective Champions in January 1967 (1966 season). These Leagues merged in 1970 to form the AFC and NFC (Conferences within the NFL) which continue to play the Super Bowl between them.

The most successful teams during the NFL Championship Era (1933 to 1966) were the Green Bay Packers and Chicago Bears with six wins each, followed by the Detroit Lions and Cleveland Browns with four and Philadelphia Eagles and New York Giants with three.
