I'm not sure a lot of NFL history fans are aware of this, but the Colts Mike Curtis, who is one of the best linebackers ever, started off as a fullback. I think it's safe to say that Don Shula was smart to switch Curtis to LB.The Bears were 9-5 in 1965, with rookies Dick Butkus and Gayle Sayers and had a very good team. The Colts were 10-3 and this close to getting to the NFL Championship, before losing out to the Green Bay Packers. So this was an excellent matchup.Historically at least, the Redskins-Cowboys rivalry, has been the best rivalry in the #NFCEast, at least.

For two decades there wasn't a better rivalry in the #NFL, then what the #Redskins and #Cowboys had with each other.Historically at least, the Redskins-Cowboys rivalry, has been the best rivalry in the #NFCEast, at least.
