  1981....I think that was the year George Rogers went for about 1600 as a rookie
  
  1980....Houston Oilers?
  
  1989??? Not Danny White? Had to be some old-timer trying out for the Boys?
  
  Steve Bartowski? Richard Todd?

  Oakland beat Cleveland with redright88.
  
  
  *edit maybe Oakland beat Houston in the wildcard game and went on to win the SB.
  
  *second edit: I think Amad Rashad beat Cleveland in week 15 with that damn catch.
