I have no recollection of that either. 1987 was a bad year.

I loved the scab players. They were more exciting/explosive than our regular squad.

Madden kept saying that Danny White laid out Olkewicz but it was actually Crawford Ker.

I'm still looking for that 88 game at the Giants when Sweeney came in and converted something like 6 4th downs, but they still lost. IIRC Landry was so impressed by him that he started him against the Vikings the following week and the Cowboys got crushed.

Looking around on the Roku and saw on the NFL channel a replay of the Cards game from 2010. Stephen McGee, Roy Williams, Felix Jones, etc.

Bummed though because at first I thought it was 2011 and I'd get to relive the Ice Ice Bailey moment.

Roger would be fucking over the top amazing in today's game.

Roger would be fucking over the top amazing in today's game.

Would depend on the concussions. He had a propensity for them, and collisions today are a lot faster.

That aside, he was a great leader. Charismatic, athletic, prideful. Really understood how to manage the clock. Something only a few QBs seem to grasp today

QBs are so much more protected now, though. No way Brady plays to 45 in Roger's day.

 

[bbgun]

yep, had the exact same one
