His stop on the goal-line in Indy sparked 2 Super Bowls. Think about it. If we blow that big lead, Indy has home-field in AFCCG and a white-hot Manning at home after torching Denver and KC. Not outdoors in snowy Foxboro. Could have been a different outcome. Also, winning that game allowed us to open 2004 a home against Indy. If we don't win that one, maybe they have home-field that year too. A lot was riding on that 03 regular season game. Willie came thru.

Warrior all the way. So many good memories of this cat. 96, forgot the team, Monday night, maybe Buffalo or the Colts. Gets poked in the eye and it's swollen shut and he continues to play and still ends up with a monster game. My buddy and I were screaming "One Eyed Willie" that game in homage of the Goonies. Really too many to mention. Still don't think he let's the defense fail in 06 or 07. He would of willed the team for a couple of plays on leadership alone. Wish he never went to Cleveland and stayed a lifer, however the business is the business.
