Thanks for the two post. The first one has a lot of interesting comparisons.
The second is kind of interesting too.
I didn't care that much for the "THE WAY WE WERE" song back then or now, but that's a just a matter of what you like.
However..."Happy Days"... was one of my favorites. Me and my girlfriend at the time always watched it. There was so many things that I could relate to.

I wonder how these teams would match up on the field in some fantasy, time travel scenario. Modern vs old school NFL tendencies aside, I definitely think this 2021 team would win based on the abilities of players like Kyler and D Hop.

The 2021 team s better overall But the injuries at Safety in 1974 hurt the team Clarence Duren got beat a lot as did Tolbert

Yeah the way we were was a mushy kind of song you couldn't dance to it but sentimental people love it I just find it crazy that the song fits these two teams 47 years apart perfectly.
