Flutie was unsustainable as a long term option at QB, I always felt he was a gimmick that defenses were starting to figure out at the end of 99. I wasn't a fan, but he did provide some exciting football.
But not for nothing, a little less of that Flutie Magic in 1998 could have let to a better draft pick in 1999, which happened to be the McNabb/Culpepper year. Plus I wouldn't still have that Antoine Winfield jersey in my closet.
