No we never went over .500 with Mecom as owner. I think in 1979 we could have been 9-7 BUT we lost the last game of the year to the hapless Jets.
Mecom didn't care cause he was too busy hitting on hot chicks in Vero Beach. He only brought in Bum to put people in the seats. Mecom was satisfied enough just to be able to tell people he owned a football team. That's why the fans wore the schwegmann's bags originally. To get Mecom to sell the team.
Benson cared about winning. Brought in Jim Mora to usher the team into the modern era.
Thanks for the history lesson I enjoyed reading about those old times...I think we can all agree that Mecom and Danny boy are among the worst nfl owners ever
