Michael Spinks. I bought the fight, and invited many friends. I made a lot of good food. I was shocked by how many people left immediately and didn't eat anything

Who was NFL MVP in 1976? He played QB for the Baltimore Colts. He played in college for LSU. His nickname was the Ruston Rifle. He had big front teeth, and he smiled alot

Thanks ged. Sticking with the Colts of which I am still a fan despite the move to Indy. During the time of the mid 70's and the time Jones was there they had a pretty good D line which consisted of Mike Barnes, John Dutton, Freddy Cook and Joe Ehrmann. Like The Fearsome Foursome and The Purple People Eaters this group also had a nickname. Who were they? OFC

I'm interested by BOOGIEMAN s comment. I've thought of defensive nicknames for so many teams, but not the Colts

Good question, skysdad! I liked Mike Curtis and I loved Don McCauley . As I recall, Lydell Mitchell would get 30 or 40 yards rushing on a drive. Then McCauley would get the ball at the 2 yard line and dive through the line for a TD.

Very odd name for a defensive front four. I'm trying to think of a hint but that's kind of hard. I will say this I have heard some crazy songs before so on with the show . OFC

Would this help. If the front fours 1st names were Sylvester, Elmer, Wile E. and Speedy what name would you give them? As far as hints " that's all folks". OFC

i found a different one?



I'm a long time Colt fan and no doubt they were known as The Looney Tunes. I also googled it to make sure as I do for most of my questions. Yes they were also known as The Sack Pack led by John Dutton who recorded 17 himself in 1976. I was looking for The Looney Tunes and if you had came up with The Sack Pack within 24 hours I would have accepted it. I'll tell you what next question I get right you can ask the next question. OFC

I don't remember Sack Pack either. I prefer Looney Tunes. I remembered Sack Exchange for the Jets and many others. Colts looked pretty rough yesterday. They have a good defensive front, but they can't stretch the field on offense. I would play Brissett at QB

im beginning to think the same...Brissett protects the ball and he has the element of the scramble....rivers is a one dimensional gun slinger....not sure if they will make that reversal to save face ????

Stafford grew up with Dodgers' Pitcher, Clayton Kershaw. They played all sports together in suburban Dallas, Texas. In baseball, Stafford was Catcher and Kershaw the Pitcher
