A tremendous book
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
This is the finest book on pro football's best teams ever written, in my opinion. Epstein uses a strict system of mathematics and statistics to measure teams and sets forth meaningful criteria to seperate the wheat from the chaff. To the reviewer above, I say this: Isn't the whole point to win in the playoffs? How can a team be considered among the GREATEST EVER in a sport if they fail to win the most meaningful games of all? Epstein's arguments are lucid and intelligent, not given to histrionics or buffered by boorishness. This is an exhaustive book, Epstein leaves no stone unturned and even displays some good humor in the face of his intimidating statistical virtuosity. This is about as objective a study as I have seen on this often touchy subject. I would love to see this sort of method applied to my other favorite sport, Pro hockey. If you love intelligent, objective and interesting writing, then I suggest you do yourself a favor and buy this book.
The intelligent football fan's dream!

Epstein's book objectively analyzes what separates the truly great NFL teams from the near-greats or simply the good. Most NFL analysts are too emmotional or are biased toward the coaches or players that they idolized. Epstein cuts through the hype to show you which teams were the best ever.
At last, a football book for grownups

Simply put, this is the first adult, objective look at the NFL's greatest teams. You may not agree with Epstein's methodology or his selections, but at least he offers logical reasons for what he writes. I think it's a fantastic book.
