Daily News | The Eagles-Giants and Cowboys-49ers games honor the NFC as it used to be
The alignment of this year’s NFC playoffs was enough to send a tingle of memory through Keith Byars, to get him thinking back to opportunities missed and a moment that neither he nor any Eagles fan can forget. Four teams still standing in the divisional round:, three from the NFC East, one a traditional power from out west.
If only the NFL had delayed or rescheduled “The Fog Bowl” at Soldier Field against the Bears in the ‘88 playoffs.Before Eagles’ Boston Scott was a ‘Giant killer,’ he was a broke college kid clinging to a dreamIf only Randall Cunningham hadn’t taken that hit to his knee from the Packers’ Bryce Paup in the 1991 season opener.
Byars and Johnson had been teammates at Ohio State and remain close as brothers to this day. Whenever they had to face each other in the NFL, they couldn’t bear to talk during the week before the game. But they’d meet at the 50-yard line, just before kickoff, to hug it out and wish each other luck.
