In this week’s brief NFL episode, we have three games from back in the day that are rematches in this weeks slate of games in the National Football League.

Moving chronologically, we have a game from the sixties that features a team that is off to a quick start here in the 2024 season. The game we will highlight was this teams first ever win in franchise history that took place in one of football’s most famous stadiums.

The game from the 70s features a pair of teams that have started 2-0 on this young season. Yet back in 1973 when these two teams faced each other, both teams were going in total opposite directions.

This game, which was a total blowout marked the end of a career for one Hall of Fame quarterback who was replaced by another signal caller that would end up in Canton who sparked a comeback that fell short.

And finally in the game from the 1980’s, we have two long time NFC rivals meeting in the playoffs for the first time ever and in a conference championship game no less.
