OAK, 1968 deserves a mention.

 

Biletnikoff, Warren Wells, Willie Brown, Dave Greyson were a nice bunch on a 12-2 club. 1st in AFL scoring (32.2 ave. per game), 2nd lowest in points allowed (16.6 ppg). The Mad Bomber flung 25 td passes. Blanda added another 6.

 

Blanda, Biletnikoff, and Brown are in the HOF.

I don't ever recall Lott playing corner..

 

Oops.. nm, it says DB, not specifically corner.. in that case..

 

Terrell Owens, Lee Evans, Donte Whitner & Leodis McKelvin (by the end of this season) :oops:

Well, I'll throw some to the not so old timers, @ least in terms of the secondary:

 

Dennis Smith and Steve Atwater

 

Outstanding tandem @ safety.

Lott began his career in San Fransisco as a corner before moving to safety. He was an excellent corner.

Carnell Lake and Rod Woodson were a nice pair of dbs.

 

Well, in terms of the entire secondary, they also had Thomas Everett, who was very good as well @ the other safety spot (Woodson was a corner then). Everett would go on to get a couple picks in the massacre that was Super Bowl XVII.

I recall a CIN-PGH game where Lake perfectly punched the ball away from the certifiable Carl Pickens as he was streaking along the left sideline for a sure td.
