Cambridge-AVFC Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 I don't know if this is already answered but who are AVFC's equivalent in the NFL? I'm going with Redskins without RG3....reasonably good history but struggled in recent times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOF Posted January 21, 2013 Moderator Share Posted January 21, 2013 I'd go with the Chicago Bears. Both are one of the older 'founding fathers' of their leagues and are 2 of the most storied and successful giants of their sport yet both have struggled to reproduce that glory in recent times.

kurtsimonw Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 Both are also from the 2nd City. Bears made a Super Bowl fairly recently, we made a Cup Final. Even this season Brandon Marshall = Benteke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leviramsey Posted January 21, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted January 21, 2013 (edited) I agree with Da Bears. Who also have a reputation for cheapskate ownership... Edited January 21, 2013 by leviramsey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maqroll Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 It's VERY difficult to compare, but the Bears would probably get the nod- Second City, last won big in the 80's, old stadium recently refurbished, traditional club, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dante_Lockhart Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 I'd have said Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Not expected to challenge, young squad, but on their day can compete with the big boys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOF Posted January 22, 2013 Moderator Share Posted January 22, 2013 It ignores what we were though. At least the Bears go back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
