That's a truly strange streak. Looking at the list, which dates back to Adrian Peterson in 2007, six of the 13 were rookie QBs, so that probably says something about QB scouting, opportunity and early development in the NFC. As for the other seven backs and receivers, it's really hard to say why. In any event, it's going to be some story when an offensive lineman wins that award for the first time.

If memory serves me correctly, the comment "(Lombardi) treats us all the same – like dogs," was from Henry Jordan, not Jerry Kramer.
Several readers wanted the record corrected, so there you go.

Beginning to think there will be no football this year.
It sounds like the coming week will be an important one in the ongoing negotiations between the league and the players' union over safety protocols, economics, etc. Let's see if they can get things worked out, and if by the end of the month the news changes for the better on the virus. All we can do is wait and see.

Any chance a return to football and COVID-19 becomes a divisive issue for the players or union? How ugly could it get?
I don't see the union dividing, if that's what you're asking. There's going to have to be an opt-out provision of some kind, and I think players will respect any decisions other players make.

Did Wes just throw down the gauntlet on noodles in chili and then leave Spoff to handle the aftermath? I gotta say, I thought it was perfectly normal until I moved out of Wisconsin and realized everyone else thinks it's weird. Where do you land on it, Mike? What's your preferred chili style?
I grew up in my little corner of the state with no noodles in chili (I'd crumble crackers in it instead), and the inclusion of noodles changed the dish's name to goulash. Then I married someone from a different part of the state who made me try it her way. Twenty-one years (and counting) of marriage later, I've honestly come around to preferring noodles to crackers, and I never thought I would.

How many quarterbacks have played starting roles for the Packers in regular-season games?
I believe when Brett Hundley started those handful of games in 2017 he became the 46th different starting QB for the Packers in official league games (which began in 1921). Since Brett Favre's first start in 1992, there have been just six.

Will the Packers sell stock to make up for the lower number of fans?
The Packers can sell stock only if the proceeds are to be used for stadium improvements, which the last two stock sales (1997, 2011) supported. They can no longer do so as just a general fundraiser.

To appreciate how rare Cecil Isbell's 24 TD passes in 1942 were, consider that his mark stood as the franchise's single-season record until Lynn Dickey threw 32 in 1983. In fact, Isbell's mark was still in the top five in team history as recently as 1995.
Isbell and Hutson were playing a different game than everyone else.

Two questions from two sides of the coin: Is there an advantage to being overlooked for some of these "lists"? For example, "Z" being underrated and Aaron Jones on not being a top 10 running back. On the other side, is there a risk in having Davante Adams sharing his route-running secrets?
