Chandler#81 Posted March 23, 2020 Posted March 23, 2020 TV guide program alert. How old am I? The only player I don’t recall is De Sutter DL. Certainly didn’t think it was over for the next 23 years.. 2 1
RiotAct Posted March 23, 2020 Posted March 23, 2020 Beathard at QB for KC... any relation to the guy who started some games for San Fran this past season?

Pete is CJ's great uncle. Pete's brother Bobby was a front office exec with several teams. IIRC Bobby had a good reputation. Bobby is CJ's grandfather. God this makes me feel old since I remember Pete Beatherd -- and this game. 2 1
RoyBatty is alive Posted March 23, 2020 Posted March 23, 2020 They have Len Dawson listed as a DB. I can recall about 90% of those players, much smaller roster than today. 1

Utah John Posted March 23, 2020 Posted March 23, 2020 They spelled Rutkowski wrong. I thought they got Paul Costa's initial wrong (D Costa) but then I realized the Bills had two players named Costa. I don't remember the tackle, D Costa, but I do remember Paul Costa. 1

I loved it the year he played QB, for a few game, i think the same year one of my favorite players Marlin Briscoe did as well. Regarding E, i think back then it meant something like split end, which he was somewhat of a utility player, half RB, half WR, then again i was real young barely recall. Look at the alternative shows they had on, pretty brutal. Wasn't much to watch Sunday morning but religion and Beany and Cecil. And that weird Davy & Goliath. 1

This is also before Paul Costa got switched from TE to OT. Edited March 25, 2020 by Ennjay 1

Bills fan since 87 Posted March 26, 2020 Posted March 26, 2020 I find stuff like this very cool. Anyone else have any old clippings like this?

When #21 meandered around, back again, and through the Bills on his winding way to the end zone, they should have invoked the mercy rule then and there.

He deserved the beating he got... Also, recall that the game was blacked out in Buffalo/Rochester...stupid blackout rules were fortunately amended in the early 1970s and are extinct today. 1
