The screen passes from that era were literal works of art.

**** LJ.

Yeah, **** the player who had to be held back so he didn't surpass a walked-off (with pay) player's record. :rolleyes:

That O Line were cavemen in pads. I think they secretly giggled when Vermeil called a sweep play-- they destroyed people. It was Billy Jack tactics; right foot / left cheek and not a damn thing you can do about it.

Nigerian Nightmare in his prime was a site to behold.

Agreed. I would have thought Holmes or Okoye would have had the most yards on the list but it's still Jamaal. Borderline HOF although he probably shouldn't quite make it.

The toss lefts too.

It seems like it was always left. I'm sure there were right sweeps, but whenever I think of that offense I think of left sweeps. I wonder why. You had Roaf and Waters on the left who were amazing, but you had Shields on the right and Tait would have been very mobile. Maybe it was just because Gonzalez usually took a linebacker right to the strong side, which gave the left more room?

The thing is when they ran behind the same line, you could see that LJ was more naturally talented than Priest was in the size/speed department. That doesn't change that LJ was a dick then and now he's crazy.

I was so wrong on Greg Hill. I had him as a super star. Ugh.

Two words I haven't "heard" together in 20 years:

Jesus Christ was that a horrible time in Chiefs Kingdom, the early to mid 80's. I call it the WASTELAND ERA.

No identity, very few if any superstars and just mediocre football year after year.

You weren't the only one. That list was long. We were always grasping at any player with just a remote bit of potential to elevate to superstar status as we had so many suck players that we were told were the next "__________" but in reality they were only the next Ryan Sims. :deevee:

They were a thing of beauty that’s for sure. Wasn’t Jason Dunn involved a few too?

Imagine if Jamaal had Mahomes.

Oh man leaking some screens out of the backfield with Charles in this offense would be devastating.
