i took that picture mark because lenny moore broke one up the middle for about a 49 yard TD and the 4 players stayed together all the way stride for stride.

i try to number all my teams to represent the great players of the 60's and 70's.....every now and then a more modern player will make the roster , but not very often.....i also forgot "the rabbit"...billy ray smith number 74.....i always liked him on the old nfl films.
