machine gun kelly Posted April 24, 2022 Share Posted April 24, 2022 I didn’t know we had red helmets in the 70’s. I thought the red helmets didn’t start until the 90’s. Fergy was my first QB I remember, but only towards the end. Happy BDay big guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kornfed Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 Always liked Fergy. Even though he threw a pass to a buddy of mine after a camp practice in Fredonia and wouldn't throw one to me. Most likely because I was a long hair punk. (good read Joe) That same post practice day I wound up sitting on a golf cart having a cigarette with Isiah Robertson. Used to love camp at Fredonia State. ... MANY MANY MORE HAPPY BIRTHDAYS FERGY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sierra Foothills Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 Happy Birthday Fergy! You're a good man and a good QB. On 4/23/2022 at 10:29 AM, ExWNYer said: Agree. I was 17 and crushed when they lost. Their 'Bermuda Triangle' defense was #1 in the NFL and there is no doubt in my mind that team would have beaten the Raiders in the AFC Championship Game and then the Eagles in the Super Bowl. That 1980 season was their first division title since 1966 and the first I was old enough to remember. That is still one of my favorite Bills teams/seasons of all-time despite the way that San Diego game ended. I took some small consolation in the fact that Bob Chandler won himself a Super Bowl (sadly, traded that year to Oakland for LB Phil Villapiano). Happy Birthday and many more, Fergy. 😊 Chuck Knox was a very underrated coach and team architect. He was a three-time NFL Coach of the Year. He took over a bad Rams team and led them to 5 straight division titles. He took over a bad Buffalo team and led them to consecutive playoff births. He then took over a bad Seattle team and led them to consecutive playoff births in his first two seasons. He had 186 wins, a .558 winning percentage and 11 playoff appearances. The Bills were a clown show before he arrived and reverted back to being a clown show immediately after he left. Thanks Ralph. I hope the $100K savings was worth it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He gave us a sense of winning beyond just handing off to OJ. And his gutsy performance playing hurt against SD in the playoffs is still my biggest (OK, second-biggest) heartbreak as a Bills fan.

HurlyBurly51 Posted April 26, 2022 Share Posted April 26, 2022 Happy birthday Fergie! As previously mentioned, I’ll never forget his gutsy performance against the Chargers. Broke this kids heart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
