Slightly off topic but I saw the name Russell Erxleben and decided to look him up and I found this little tidbit:
And he was a 1st round pick
I'm glad I'm too young to know how bad we REALLY were back then
quote:
His first NFL game was a portent of his pro career. On September 2, 1979, the Saints and the archrival Atlanta Falcons went into overtime with the game tied 34-34. Midway through overtime, a snap went over Erxleben's head and rolled to the goal line. Erxleben picked the ball up and made a hurried chest pass. The pass was intercepted by Atlanta's James Mayberry at the 6-yard line, and he trotted into the end zone for a touchdown and a 40-34 Falcon victory.
And he was a 1st round pick

Damn, how could you not have heard of Russell Erxleben? I'm too young to remember but he is a Saints legend of suckage.
