Mark Vader Posted May 10, 2008 Share Posted May 10, 2008 Thomas Smith: Yes he had hands of stone, but he blanketed his receivers. In fact he made the game clinching INT against Dallas in 96? 97? He was covering Deion Sanders on that play. Matt Darby: Good DB. He also made a game winning INT against Dallas in 93. Al Edwards: If I remember correctly he had 6 or 7 catches in one game, when the Bills had some receiver injuries. Don Smith: Reliable RB. He also scored the first ever Bills TD in a Super Bowl. John Davis: The forgotten man of a great offensive line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bleed Bills Blue Posted May 10, 2008 Share Posted May 10, 2008 I think John Parella deserves a mention. Maybe Gary Baldinger, too. In a couple years you can add Coy Wire to the list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Mad Dog Maddox". I can never forget the tape clip of Darryl Talley leaping over the line in a "Spiderman" outfit...was he about to crush Esiason? A classic from NFL Films.

webtoe Posted May 10, 2008 Share Posted May 10, 2008 Wasn't he the LB that made the game saving INT against the Jets in that crazy wild card game? He was a safety. The same safety that got beat late for a TD in the 1980 Playoff game against the SD Chargers. On a side note. I truly believe that was the Bills 2nd best shot at a Super Bowl. The team had an excellent defense, with many of the names mentioned here, and would have hosted Oakland the next week, and played then played a mediocre Philadelphia team in the Super Bowl.

OnTheRocks Posted May 10, 2008 Share Posted May 10, 2008 Has no one not mentioned Lucius Sanford? The 1980 team is my favorite team of all time so I love a lot of the names mentioned: Sherm White Ben Williams Shane Nelson Mario Clark Steve Freeman Charles Rhomes Isaiah Robertson Jim Haslett Freddy Tony Greene Jeff Nixon Ken Jones Reggie McKenzie Will Grant Conrad Dobler Joe Devlin Reuben Gant Jerry Butlet Frank Lewis Lou Piccone Joe Cribbs Rosey Leaks and of course my all time favorite Bill: Joe Ferguson!

BuffOrange Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 I actually think history views Beebe way more favorable than it should. If I had to pick a player at that position in my lifetime, it is Billy Brooks easily just for the '93 Raiders playoff game and the entire '95 season.

Cal Bill's Fan Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 Gary Marangi - I heard a story one time, that the season he got to play because Fergy was hurt, Gary was also playing hurt, sholder injury. That is why he did so poorly. Never came back from the injury. Can anybody confirm this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
