Could Have Been Great But...

When I think of the Buffalo Bills of the early 90's, I think great team. However, a lot of people seem to think different. Of course, much of that has to do with the fact that they lost four straight Superbowls. And to think, that losing streak was launched by one wide right, game winning field goal attempt.

What could have been had that kick gone just a wee bit straighter? Would that have set for them a little different tone, one which maybe gets them to play more loose against Denver and the Boys in the proceeding years? We'll never know. But, a less tight Jim Kelly offense would have been nice to see in those games.

Either way, I gotta say, the Bills were Great. Perhaps the greatest team ever to not win a ring.

I was going to mention the Bills.
 
I'd say Herschel Walker because he wasted all that time in the short lived USFL instead of the NFL. Had he gone NFL from the get-go, he'd own the record books.

He made Dallas great when they traded him to MN for all those draft picks that turned into Troy Aikman, Emmit Smith, and Michael Irvine. :lol:

It certainly opened up their payroll.
 
I was just reminded that today is Indy day. I guess I could just say, that race sure used to be great, but...

The one driver I remember who was always on the edge of winning the race was Mario Andretti. It seemed like he was always ahead and then broke down. He probably would have one 7 times if only he could have finished the race. :)

Floyd Mayweather could've been great, if boxing wasn't corrupt and he didn't choose to only fight people he knew he could beat.

He beat everyone he faced and he fought pretty much every contender in his division, who did he duck in your opinion?
 
Despite his numbers which in today's NFL are par for the course I would put Phillip Rivers in this category.
Talented QB who has failed to make a real impact in the post season.
 
Washington Capitals, if only they could learn to play well in the post season.
