It’s the calendar where football is never off season.
The stats, the trivia, the outsized personalities, the rivalries, the unbeatable-until-they’re-not records—it’s like salted peanuts for the gridiron obsessed. True or False: A rookie had the most punt-return touchdowns in the NFL in 2011. (True—Cardinal Patrick Peterson led with 4.) All things Super Bowl: Which coach won three Super Bowls with the same team but three different starting quarterbacks? (Washington’s Joe Gibbs.) Plus College Ball, Legendary Games, Draft History, Dubious Distinctions, and quotes: “Coaching isn’t work. It’s more than a job. It’s a way of life . . . no one should go into coaching unless he couldn’t live without it. . . . Football is what I am.”—Hall of Fame coach John Madden.
