Official Rivalry Nicknames: NFL (AFC, NFC, jersey, sport)

[JJG]

I'm doing rivalry nicknames for all the major sports. I don't know about you, but I feel that we should have names for all our rivalries to give it more meaning. Here are some of mine:

• Bills/Jets: "Upstate vs. Downstate"
• Browns/Ravens: "Art Modell's Doing"
• Browns/Bengals: "Ohio's Big Orange Showdown"
• Browns/Steelers: "The Rust Belt Rivalry"
• Titans/Texans: "Old Houston vs. New Houston"
• Raiders/Chargers: "California Clash"
• Cowboys/Redskins: "America's Classic Showdown"
• Cowboys/49ers: "NFC's Top Dog Show"
• Cowboys/Eagles: "Hatred at its Finest"
• Cowboys/Giants: "Big Blue Battle"
• Cowboys/Steelers: "Battle of the Super Bowl Kings"
• Cowboys/Texans: "The Texas Shootout"
• Eagles/Redskins: "Patriotic Clash"
• Giants/Jets: "The Big Apple Bowl... in Jersey"
• Bears/Packers: "THE Rivalry"
• Packers/Vikings: "The Great Northern War"
• Panthers/Saints: "Tobbacco vs. Gumbo"
• 49ers/Raiders: "The Bay Area Bowl"
• Rams/49ers: "The Gold Rush Rivalry"
• Seahawks/Cardinals: "Western Birdie Battle"

Yeah, there are alot more Cowboys rivalries up there and it's for two reasons: I'm a Cowboy fan, I know all their rivals, and the Cowboys have more rivals than anyone.

Ok, anyone of you have any?

(BTW, Toss Up! returns to close out season one next Thursday.)

Panthers/Jaguars- Battle of 95.( both teams joined in 1995, also have I-95 running through both represented areas).

Colts/Patriots- "AFC's top dog show"

Redskins vs. Cowboys is DA BEST rivalry in my opinion!

Browns - Steelers is known as "The Turnpike War."
Browns - Bengals is known as "The Battle Of Ohio."
