So let's dig through the depths of my collection for some cards!
Say hello to Ed McCaffrey. He played for the Broncos during their big Super Bowl run in the late 90s. He was often a secondary receiving option to Rod Smith but he had a couple of good seasons. Notably in 2000 when he caught 101 passes for 1317 yards and 9 TDs. McCaffrey was always a favorite of mine. He always played hard on the field. I sent this out on May 15th and got it back July 1st. 47 days total.
I would call Andre Reed the best receiver in Bills history. He was part of the era where they made 4 Super Bowls in a row. I think he is currently one of the worst Hall of Fame snubs out there. When you talk about the 90s, you have to talk about Andre Reed in the wide receiver discussion. He was just a great talent and those Bills teams were amazing for a really long time. I think the whole lot of them suffer because they didn't win a Super Bowl.
Steve Walsh had some good moments in the pros. He lead Chicago to a playoff bid as the starter one year in the mid 90s. He never saw consistent action year in and year out though. He's not a huge QB by any means but these are the kinds of players you deal with when you do TTM. You can get some big names here and there but you're dealing in mid level players and obscure players.
One of the best return guys of the late 80s and 90s. Even as late as 1998 he helped the Arizona Cardinals make the playoffs with a huge year returning the football. That was his main strength as a player. He was good as a receiver and kind of mediocre as a running back. He's a player that Browns fan always remember fondly.
Well, that's it for this week.
Making two super bowls in a row anymore has become difficult. I highly doubt making four in a row will ever be done again.
