Warrick Dunn was one of the most successful Running Backs at Florida State, where he had over 5,000 Yards From Scrimmage, 49 Touchdowns, a National Championship in 1993, and an All-American in 1996. Dunn was the first RB taken off the board in the 1997 Draft, with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers as his landing spot. Dunn’s career was not exclusive to Tampa but to the NFC South.

Dunn transitioned into the professional ranks with ease, winning the Rookie of the Year and a trip to the Pro Bowl with a dual-threat attack of 1,440 Yards From Scrimmage.  Blessed with great field vision and a powerful frame, Dunn rarely was in the rushing yards leadership, but mostly because he was an above-average accumulator from the air.  Dunn added a second Pro Bowl off of a 1,555 YFS year, but a banged-up Dunn had his lowest production, 1,004 YFS with only 447 Rushing Yards, brought him to free agency, where he signed with the Atlanta Falcons, a team he is equally synonymous with.

A Falcon for six seasons, Dunn had three straight years with over 1,000 Yards (2004-06) with a Pro Bowl in 2005.  That year, Dunn had career-highs in Rushing Yards (1,416) and YFS (1,636), with him rushing for 9 TDs (his best) the year before.  Dunn requested his release when Michael Carter was signed, and he returned to Tampa for one final season in 2008.

A write-up about Dunn is never complete without mentioning his philanthropy.  The winner of the Walter Payton Man of the Year in 2004 and the NFLPA Alan Page Community Award in 2007, Dunn’s efforts in home building and ownership for single-parent families helped so many people.  If character was the only prerequisite for Canton, Dunn would already be there.

On the field, Dunn compiled an impressive 15,306 Yards From Scrimmage with 64 Touchdowns.

The first thing we have to say, is there a better name for a Wide Receiver than Mike Quick?

Of course not!

During the early 1960s, the Los Angeles Rams had a terrible reputation. This began to change when Roman Gabriel became their quarterback. By the late 60s, Gabriel had become one of the top quarterbacks in the NFL. He won the NFL's Most Valuable Player award in 1969 and helped the Rams become a respectable team that was considered a legitimate championship threat. Gabriel's strong arm made him a formidable player, but he often played it safe to avoid turnovers. During the 1960s and early 1970s, Gabriel's touchdown-interception ratio of 201-149 was considered very good.

In 1972, Gabriel was traded to the Philadelphia Eagles, where he won his first Passing Yards Title with 3,219 yards and his second TD Title with 23 touchdowns. Statistically, this was the best year of his career, but he regressed afterward. He retired after the 1977 season with 29,444 passing yards.

Gabriel and other offensive stars from his time have struggled to make it into the Football Hall of Fame, possibly because their records were surpassed by the huge offensive statistics of the 90s and 00s.
