Doc Brown Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 Can we have six? My deepest apologies to Andre and Kelly. If Kelly willed us to victory in any of the three Super Bowls following the Giants one he'd make the cut.

Will anyone be able to live up to the imaginary standard we set? I for one hope that Josh eclipses Kelly on the field, which in turn would equate to better than...(takes a deep breath) 101-59 regular season record; better than Elway numbers in almost every metric at the time of his retirement [better completion percentage, better average gain per attempt, better touchdown percentage and better passer rating]; 14-8 head to head record against Dan Marino [3-0 in the playoffs]; 23 fourth-quarter comebacks and six other winning drives that broke a fourth-quarter tie. Former Dallas Hall of Famer Roger Staubach, famous for his comeback heroics, also finished his career with 23 fourth-quarter comebacks; https://buffalonews.com/1997/02/12/the-numbers-put-kelly-in-same-tier-with-marino-elway/; pro-football reference has it as 21 4th Q comebacks and 28 game-winning drives https://www.pro-football-reference.com/play-index/comeback.cgi?player=KellJi00 Also, it should be noted that NONE of the following fellow HOF QB's ever made it past Kelly when playing head to head in the playoffs: Marino, Elway, Moon & Montana. I'm happy to dig out more in defense of Jim's pedestal, but my overall point is that we should be so lucky if Allen surpasses Jim's actual on-field metrics, W/L #'s!

Slippery Rubber Mats Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 OJ Kelly Bruce for sure I'd do Thurman over Marv and Reed personally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hondo in seattle Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 Ralph OJ Bruce Kelly The Bills wouldn't exist without Ralph. And they wouldn't have remained in Buffalo. OJ is arguably the best running back in NFL history. (He's also a homicidal schmuck so I can see leaving off). Bruce is arguably the best DE ever. Kelly was the leader of the Bills during their greatest era. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kelly was 101-59 in regular season in 11 years from 1986-1996. And he went 9-8 in the playoffs as Bills Starter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
