Well thats just not true. The 76 team has some really good players. John Hannah, Leon Gray,
Stanley Morgan, Russ Francis,, Sam Bam Cunningham,Andy Johnson, Don Calhoun, Sam Adams, Pete Brock, Darryl Stingley, Steve Grogan, Randy Vataha.
Mike Haynes, Sugar Bear Hamilton, Richard Bishop, Sam Hunt, Steve Nelson, Tony McGee, George Webster, Julius Adams.
The offense was young and talented, the defense had guys at the end of their careers like McGee, Webster, Bishop but they were good.
Then go to the 85 team. Unbelievable rushing attack. One of my favorite games, crushing Miami in the playoffs. They still had Julius Adams, Pete Brock, Steve Grogan, John Hannah,Stanley Morgan, Steve Nelson, They added Don Blackmon, Rich Camarillo, Ray Clayborn, Tony Collins, Lin Dawson, Tony Franklin, Irving Fryar,, Brian Holloway, Craig James, Roland James, Ronnie Lippett, Fred Marion, Johnny Rembert, Ed Reynolds, Ken sims, Mosi Tatupu, Andre Tippett, Garin Veris, Robert Weathers and Ron Wooten.
Those guys are all good to great. Look them up, search for games.
We could use Julius Adams, Garin Veris, Ray Clayborn, Fred Marion, Steve Nelson, Andre Tippett, Stanley Morgan and many others.
If they had Brady at QB they would have been better than the 07 team. Grogan was good but inconsistent with some games his ball would take off on him.
The 76 team set an NFL record for team rushing yardage which may still stand today. And also had Stanley Morgan and Russ Francis as receivers. They would've rolled to the championship if not for Ben Dreith's call in Oakland.
