Obscure things remembered about somewhat obscure players...

[Bryan]

Pete Holohan - one of my favorite players as a kid. Filled in for Kellen Winslow with Air Coryell, then had some good years with the Rams. Whenever he caught a pass and got tackled, he'd jump up and do this overdramatic fist pump. Hilarious to watch.

James Brooks - My memory is a bit foggy on this...I think this was against Glanville's Oilers while Brooks was on the Bengals, but I remember a play where Brooks got outside, held up his hand in a "Number 1" pose, and outran the Oilers defense to the end zone with his hand still in the "Number 1" pose. Ultimate trash talk.

Brad Pyatt - https://www.pro-football-reference.com/ ... atBr00.htm
Had a unique way of returning kicks. He'd catch the ball and run straight upfield as fast as he could...no cuts, no moves, just straight ahead with no slowing down. He'd get clobbered on each return, but he never changed his style. I think he had to retire because of internal organ injuries. Crazy stuff.

Does anyone remember speedster WR Daryl Turner with the Seahawks ? For like four seasons he averaged a TD reception every three catches but flamed out due to injuries and off-field problems. With Largent on the other side, an effective combo ...

[Gary Najman]

Rod Hill, the Cowboys 1982 top Draft choice, had a hard time with Dallas and afterwards in the NFL. Many scratched their head when the little-known cornerback from Kentucky State was selected in the first round. I remember him returning kicks, and in fact, he touched the ball that went out of bounds inside the one-yard line in the previous play of Tony Dorsett´s 99-yard TD run against the Vikings. The interesting thin is that he moved to Canada in 1988 and had a good 5-year stint with the WInnipeg Blue Bombers and still has interception records for that club.

Wyatt still wore that facemask in 1974 with the Jacksonville Sharks of the WFL.

[Gary Najman]

Speaking of odds facemasks (for the time), in the USFL QB John Reaves and WR Danny Buggs wore the single bar facemask. By this time, only Joe Theismann wore amongst non punters and kickers in the NFL.

[GameBeforeTheMoney]

I remember Phillip Epps hopping down the sidelines for several yards for the Packers against the Lions. They used the footage in the Dire Straits Walk of Life video.

[BD Sullivan]

On November 23, 1975, the Browns' Billy Lefear ran the opening kickoff back 92 yards against the Bengals, suffering a broken leg when he was tackled. He never played in another regular season game.
