Otis was tough as nails as well. It's an abomination that he's not in the HOF. He bridged the gap of Wr's from the AFL to the merger of the two leagues. To this day, there are still only a handful of Wr's who posessed the rare combination of speed, power, toughness, hands, and fluid grace that Otis had. He made things look easy. I 'm beginning to lose faith that he'll get in during his lifetime and that would be a total disgrace.

Thanks for bringing up a story not too many people know about that heartbreaking game...I too thought that '71 team was slightly better than the '69 team. The defense was still solid, but the offense was improved over the Super Bowl team.
If it had worked it would have gone down as one of the most incredible play calls in the history of pro football. |

If winning a Super Bowl is required, players that were never part of a Super Bowl winning team - such as the recently considered Thurman Thomas or Derrick Thomas - will continue to fall short despite their outstanding football careers. |
