Who is on the Mt. Rushmore of Bills Special Teams

[BillsPride12]

Steve Tasker- No brainer

Mark Pike- Obvious choice

Brian Moorman- Hero of the drought years

* TBD...this is where it gets tough for me.  Have a few different guys I could go with here.  Want to read the discussion on here and see where I stand afterwards

Terrance McGee is the Bills’ all-time leader in kickoff returns (207), yards (5,450), and TDs (5)

I agree with these choices too. I think that Steve Christie would be a pretty solid addition as well.

I was giving him serious consideration as my 4th pick but wasn't sure if I was using some recency bias there

[mushypeaches]

Chris Watson if only specifically as a “punt catcher”

[BuffaloBillyG]

Tasker, Moorman, Christie, Bobby April 

 

 

[Bob Chandler's Hands]

If not Terrence McGee, how about Keith Moody?

He retired 13 years ago....I know 😔

[GunnerBill]

Only going from my fandom..... got to be Moorman. I think I'd put Taiwan Jones on there too (which will annoy a ton of people) and Nyheim Hines for that opening kick off touchdown vs the Pats the game after the Damar incident. That was just a special moment that will live long in the memory.

I wouldn't want to see OJ's face anywhere anymore, but I'll mention he did kick returns his rookie year and bit afterwards, finishing his career with an impressive 30 yards per return average.  

 

And I think Pete Gogolak deserves a mention just because he's the guy who popularized soccer style kicking in the NFL.  After playing for the Bills, he went to the Giants and remains to this day their leading all-time scorer.  For the youngsters in the cheap seats, before Gogolak NFL kickers would approach the ball straight on.  

 

But I agree with the OP, Tasker, Pike, and Moorman are all obvious choices.  I'm not sure who I'd add after that.  Bobby April is a good option if we're considering coaches too.  

[Doc Brown]

You're going to have the old timers show their chops and pick Keith Moody.  I'd go Tasker, Moorman, Christie, and McGee.  Runner up - Pike and Parrish.

McGee has to be on there. Two time 2nd team All Pro as a returner. He has the franchise record in kickoff returns for TDs and yardage. He was an elite returner and a good starting CB, too.

 

Moorman, Tasker, and Pike for the other spots. Maybe Christie instead of Pike. Coin toss.

Tasker

McGee

Moorman

Christie 

 

Hopefully in time Bass will take his place on this list.

Not Mt Rushmore worthy on the field - but Kevin Everett comes to mind.

I will always say in my lifetime Steve Christie made the biggest key play in Bills history when he recovered the onside kick in The Comeback.   That was the turning point where that game really turned.  

 

And yeah he was a darn good kicker too.

 

It's a no brainer for the OP's final special teamer.  

[Dave_Bills]

The two names that immediately came to my mind were Moorman and McGee. 

[julian]

Mount Rushmore of special teams… good lord lol

 

I give full marks to the original poster, trying to pass time during the slowest segment on the NFL calendar isn’t easy.

Pike - Mt Rushmore isn't complete without him so this Mt has 5.
