I became a fan of the Hawks during the Jim Zorn era. Dave Kreig was one of my favorite players.

LOL, I think Krieg played Halfback in that game, well, that's what I remember.. Him spending half of his time laying on his back.hawkfan68":27x97o23 said: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).

He screwed it up as often as he pulled it out at the end of games. That was purely standard practice for Krieg. You just never knew which was coming next.
If he played today there would be people calling for him to be cut or traded on a weekly basis. The rage would be palpable. I think the modern comparison may be the best of Gardner Minshew and the worst of Blake Bortles in one player.
And snap back to reality ... man, Russ is a god in comparison...
