jjakq27 Posted January 5, 2004 Report Posted January 5, 2004 Did anybody see the NFL commercial at the beginning of the Green Bay-Seattle game that asked the question "what if Dwight Clark didn't make the catch?" It went on to say that the Bengals would have beat Dallas in Super Bowl 16...and Bill Walsh wouldn't have taught the West Coast offense to all these guys ....and that the Bengals would have drafted Jerry Rice in 1985 ....and he would've made the Hall of Fame". At that point the guy holds up a Bengals jersey with "Rice 87" on it. Awsome commercial. Too bad TV is not reality sometimes. Quote
The Brew Man Posted January 5, 2004 Report Posted January 5, 2004 Yeah, I saw it, we can dream cant we? Quote
jjakq27 Posted January 5, 2004 Author Report Posted January 5, 2004 I'd love to know why we picked Eddie Brown instead of Jerry Rice in '85. Maybe because Brown was from Miami and Rice was from a D1AA school. But if remember right, Rice lead his Division in receptions or yardage so he was not an unknown. Maybe someone knows for sure and can clarify for me. Quote
San Antonio Bengal Posted January 7, 2004 Report Posted January 7, 2004 I thought it was a pretty cool commercial. Anyone know where I can get one of those Bengals "Rice 87" jerseys?? Quote

jjakq27 Posted January 7, 2004 Author Report Posted January 7, 2004 Anyone know where I can get one of those Bengals "Rice 87" jerseys?? Koch's Sporting Goods in downtown Cincinnati might be able to make one up for you. At a reasonable price I'm sure. Quote
