Back then a 47 yard FG was less than a sure thing.  I hear what you say but he was asked to do the improbable. 

Agreed. Levy, Kelly, and the defense lost the SuperBowl but it is Norwood's wide right that defines the franchise.

Just think of it. If the Bills win the Superbowl in the next decade what image will they show first.

As others have noted I would go with Jack Kemp.  My reasons:

 

*  He QBed the Bills to 2 league championships.  Their only league championships.

 

*  He's had the longest time to impact the franchise with his playing days being in the 1960's

 

*  As a nationally recognized congressman and a cabinet member of a presidential administration Kemp and his days as the Bills QB were routinely linked in the press thousands of times.  It was an association between a former player and a team that added to the reputation of the Bills franchise in ways that winning & losing football games never could.
