BlackandBlue

They are playing this on the NFL network this week, and that brought back a flood of memories. I remember that Rickey had the broken foot, but I forgot about Horn getting injured early in the game. It also brought on a few questions-

1) What happened to Hand? 2000 was his career year, he was a monster, but he's never been the same since. They had Wistrom miked for the game (which I will touch on in a sec), and even he said, "In three games played this year, I don't think we've blocked Hand once." If he wasn't the first one to reach the QB, he wasn't very far away. Warner looked like a guy that just had the crap beat out of him.

2) It's unfortunate for Wistrom that he was miked for the entire game, because cramming a full game into an hour show, they were dropping sound bites from Wistrom every five minutes, and every time, he was whining about something, and the perception I got was he's a cry baby.

3) Forgot how dominant Roaf could be. Out of sight, out of mind, and yeah, he's All-Pro, but still, he owned Wistrom for 90% of the game.

4) Where's Willy? Denver, I know, but that was his career day. True, it only happened because Horn went down, but I dare you to find a prettier pass/catch than the one that AB threw to Jackson in the 3rd quarter for a TD.
