From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The 1984 All-Pro Team is composed of the National Football League players that were named to the Associated Press , Newspaper Enterprise Association , Pro Football Writers Association , Pro Football Weekly , and The Sporting News in 1984. Both first- and second- teams are listed for the AP and NEA teams. These are the five teams that are included in Total Football II: The Official Encyclopedia of the National Football League . In 1984 the Pro Football Writers Association chose only one defensive tackle and two inside linebackers in a pure 3-4 format. Pro Football Weekly added a “Special Teams” player, a non-returner who excelled in special teams play.
