    Ditka made a mistake but Walter handled it wrong too and that season was about the D and about Perry scoring TDs on offense so it wasn't crazy to give it to Perry.

    WP could have scored on that play too, he opted for the circus

    that team was a circus. does not scoring a SB TD make Walter less of a player?

    No, but he perservered through the lean years, when they were horrible, he was there only viable player, he was the face of the franchise, he deserved to carry the ball instead of the lardo

    I think he should have given it to Walter but I also think Walter handled it very poorly.

    shit Ferguson played forever. I remember this but for some reason I thought there was no way that was 1985 as I thought Ferguson was done before then. Turns out he played all the way to freakin 1990.

    Wow. The guy played with O.J. Simpson and Eric Dickerson. He started games opposite Joe Namath and Randall Cunningham. That's a long career. Of course I bet Testaverde can script a similar story

    Ferguson and Namath had a classic battle in Buffalo in the early 70's, 60mphwinds, as hard as Joe throws the ball was almost flying back over his head, he only completed 2/18 passes and Ferguson only attempted 2

    Ferguson was the Bills QB for the first ever game I attended in 1983.

    Fumbling the opening kickoff didn't help.
