Bill from NYC Posted July 18, 2023 Share Posted July 18, 2023 I remember a "blocker" named Marcus Spriggs. As I recall he was a 6th round draft choice and was one of the worst players I ever saw in the NFL. Once RJ was the QB and a defender hit him quite late, and Spriggs was standing right there. RJ was laying on the turf bleeding. Not only did Spriggs fail to retaliate, he wouldn't even help RJ up. I understand that RJ doesn't have many fans here (nor does he deserve them), but that was pretty lame. Thankfully, Spriggs didn't last on the Bills.

Nephilim17 Posted July 18, 2023 Share Posted July 18, 2023 (edited) I may be drunk and/or foolish, but I'm honestly expecting Kincaid to be the best offensive player the Bills have drafted (not including Allen) for a long, long time — since maybe Moulds. If I'm wrong, I have 25 years of living with disappointment as a Bills fan to guide me through the ensuing reality check.

hondo in seattle Posted July 18, 2023 Share Posted July 18, 2023 BOGO: Two random players in the same story: Min Max Anderson and the incomparable Preston Ridlehuber. When I was 10, the tv announcers reported that OJ's backup, Mini Max Anderson, was taken out of the game because he had broken some teeth and swallowed his tongue after being hit so hard that his facemask broke. I asked my mom if it was even possible to swallow a tongue. When she said 'yes,' for years I suffered a deep and irrational fear of swallowing my own. With both OJ and Mini Max out with injuries, third-stringer Preston Ridlehuber came in. Ridlehuber's main claim to fame was scoring the winning touchdown for the Raiders the previous season on a fumble return with 33 seconds left. But no one in TV Land witnessed the greatest play of Ridlehuber's otherwise dismal career because the broadcast had been preempted by the television presentation of "Heidi." In Buffalo, the Ridlehuber magic struck one last time. Late in the game with both his quick and exciting backs hurt, Coach Rauch drew up a halfback option in the dirt on a third-and-short situation. It was supposed to be a short pass to the TE but Ridlehuber heaved a pass downfield to Haven Moses for a 45-yard TD to win the game. Ridlehuber never touched a football again. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chongli Posted July 18, 2023 Share Posted July 18, 2023 My local newspaper in the 80's sometime showed a picture of Bruce Smith carrying a window air conditioner to his dorm room at SUNY College at Fredonia to move in for training camp. I read in some newspaper that Thurman Thomas had "Tampa" written on his cleats in TC before the 1990 season (Tampa was the site of that season's SB). Joe Ferguson, as well as Dan Manucci and David Humm (Bills backup QB's) signed my autograph pad in TC sometime in the 80's. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently his normal jersey 37 was ripped during the game too, so he had to wear 31, which ended up being retired by the franchise until 1991.

Wizard Posted July 18, 2023 Share Posted July 18, 2023 John McCargo. I never heard of the guy before the draft. Then, I got excited because the Bills traded back into the 1st round to get another difference maker. I remember thinking, this ship is going to turn around. It did, but it was about 10 years after McCargo, and it had nothing to do with him! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Brown Posted July 18, 2023 Share Posted July 18, 2023 After getting spanked by the Patriots at home in 2006 we went to Outback Steakhouse by the McKinley Mall after the game.
