Thank God for Tivo

[Alaska Darin]

Tivo has caught about six "NFL Annual" shows involving the 88-94 BILLS. Things of note (none of which is news):

 

1. We were ridiculously talented all over the place. Loaded.

2. The NFL should be ashamed that Thurman Thomas didn't get in on the first ballot. He made so many highlight real plays at such a high speed it bordered on ludicrous. Before the hits added up, there were only a handful of backs in NFL history that were quicker at changing directions and getting back to full speed (think Sayers and Sanders).

3. Andre Reed is absolutely a HOFer. His RAC is nothing short of spectacular, matched by few who came before him or since.

4. Steve Tasker is also a HOFer. That man made more ST plays in his career than any ten players combined. An absolute game changer.

5. The OLine was terrific. If we ever go back to the throwbacks as permanent, I'm buying a Ritcher jersey.

6. We seriously had some linebackers.

7. Derrick Burroughs career ender hurt alot.

8. Still amazed we never won one.

burroughs would have been a standout on the SB teams. as for us winning not one, the bills were a far better team than the giants - far better. i still can't believe they lost that game. in the rest of them, they were outmatched.

Seriously I agree with you. Damn that's twice in a week. Glad to see you notice the importance of LBers.
