But similar to when Lynch was the Legend of the Game, I struggle with honoring players from the drought years - let alone a 'Legend' who played one year for a 6-10 team. There are only a handful of legends from the drought years.. and they start and end with Fitzy, FJax, Eric Wood, and Kyle Lee Evans, Winfield, Takeo, Clements, Fletcher.....I get a lot of these guys didn't play forever. If you drop Fitz from your list, I will drop everybody from mine. I agree Wood and Kyle stand out, really, Kyle stands alone if you want to get more granular.

wppete Posted December 3, 2021 Posted December 3, 2021 This should be fun. Loved T.O. As a Bill!!! Especially with Fitz slinging the ball to him. 5 Quote
Capco Posted December 3, 2021 Posted December 3, 2021 I felt kinda bad when he broke his consecutive catch streak with us. 3 Quote

Also refusing to acknowledge the drought years sounds like something a fairweather fan would do. Most of those "legends" couldn't help being on a poorly run team. 1 Quote

I would argue we dont need a legend at every game if we are bringing back one year players. Maybe TO reached out to the Bills after seeing Beastmode do it. I have no problem with TO doing this as he is an Icon and a HOFer. When Ralph and the boys flew down to get him it was an exciting moment for Buffalo. I was so hyped I bought a TO jersey which I still wear once in a while 55 catches 829 yds and 5 receiving TD's 6 rushes 54 yds and a TD Bills record 98yd TD catch and run Legend? Hell Yeah ! BTW could you imagine TO in his prime with Josh? It would be incredible 1 1 Quote

I dont consider TO a Bills legend but I also don't care, bring someone in to pump up the crowd...that is cool. Quote

I like to collect obscure Bills jerseys so you know I'll have my 81 on in the stadium monday night! Owens has had nothing but good things to say about his short time in Buffalo. Sporting my 81 jersey as well...Go BILLS! 1 Quote
dave mcbride Posted December 3, 2021 Posted December 3, 2021 I’ll say this about TO — he is a legit first-ballot hall of famer (although he wasn’t voted in the first time around). His numbers are staggering. 1 Quote

KCNC Posted December 3, 2021 Posted December 3, 2021 You guys know TO was on the Cowgirls when the Nick Folk MNF meltdown/debacle occurred, right? Not sure if that is good or bad. Quote
RoyBatty is alive Posted December 3, 2021 Posted December 3, 2021 (edited) TO still owns the Bills record for longest pass play, 98 yards from Fitzpatrick. I never liked TO but he was close to a model citizen with the Bills and was a class act. Edited December 3, 2021 by RoyBatty is alive Quote

Tried that 4 times I was in Boston getting heckled wearing my Bills gear...the best any of them got to was 3...one of them couldn't name any. Most pathetic fan base in all of sports.
