Does anyone else remember Dave Krieg?

....or just me??? I know I am probably the oldest guy on here, so most of you kids probably don't even remember Krieg, but he was a damn good QB who was also underrated.

I used to claim that he must have been before my time.

But, that was before my memory and age was brought into question.

Now I go ahead an acknowledge recalling Mudbone.

To this day, I view his career as a testament to true grit.

I think if you hang around here enough you'll see there's plenty of us who remember Neil Graff, Bill Munson and the lefty from Cal Poly-Pomona.

Yep. Kried to Largent was a thing for several years. Some of our best years, pre-Holmgren.

Remember when Kreig took over for Zorn?

Peak Krieg was the win at the Orange Bowl.

That game against the Chiefs in KC where he was sacked 8 or 9 times but got the game winning TD pass to Skansi. Krieg is one of the main reasons for the Seahawks finishing 12-4 in 1984 (season Curt Warner got injured in the 1st game and missed the rest of the season).

Definitely not the oldest person on here if you are using Krieg as a reference .. ROFL.. kids? good grief...

Welcome to the board I guess?

How can you forget a dude who had 108 fumbles and 148 interceptions in 119 starts for this team? I loved the guy as a kid and QBs turned it over more in those days but...oof.

Milton College!

Absolutely he was.

Kreig... Kreig... Hrm, you reckon this young whipper-snapper means old Mudbone outta Milton College?

Oh that guy undrafted from a College that no longer has a football program, had small hands and took over for Zorn and who drove Knox nuts but found a way to win most the time. Wore number 17 was traded to the Chiefs and then to the Lions and almost took them to the playoffs after Woodley was hurt.

Nope don't remember him.

Dave was lots of fun (along with some gnashing of teeth). He was on the radio just recently. I really enjoyed that.
Had a good time visiting the locker room right after we won the playoff spot in the Dome against the Raiders. One of my sons was with me and he got loaded up with autographs and keepsakes before everyone started heading for the parking lot.
LOVED that win in KC on the last play of the game. That was back when we just couldn't win in KC or Denver. But we gave em heck at our place...sometimes. Those 'growing pain' years were fun times despite the heartaches. Going through all that stuff is what makes what we have become so sweet!

Of course I remember him. When I was a kid a I thought he was a damn wizard.

Really liked him a lot... except for those small hands.

I remember Krieg beating out Sam Adkins for the #2 job, then replacing Zorn!

Had some really good moments with Krieg.But he gets my vote for the All time NFL Quarterbacks with the most Balls slipped out of his hands( i swear he must have some small hands?) and the Quarterback who didn't know how to adjust his chin strap properly it always ended up under his nose.
