Tuesday Morning Bills Trivia

It's Tuesday, which means another edition of Tuesday Morning Bills Trivia at Buffalo Rumblings. Lately I have been feeling very nostalgic. So this week we are going old school - if any Bills players that played for the team before the 1990 season come to mind when mulling over the clues, forget them. I suspect someone like freddyjj will do fine with this, but time will tell. One last thing - I don't know if anybody picked up on this or not, but last week, I had zero false clues. That will change this week; I might even add extra to make up for it.
Mystery Player 1
I was nicknamed "The Dancing Bear".
I am on the Top 70 Redskins of All Time list.
I have 12 career interceptions.
I am a member of the All-Time All-AFL second team.
Mystery Player 2
I attended The Citadel.
I hold the record for most consecutive AFL Championships.
I am a member of the Greater Buffalo Sports Hall of Fame.
My middle name is Leo.
Mystery Player 3
I attended the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.
My son Mike played and was a General Manager in the sport of hockey.
I spent two season playing for the Bills in the AFL.
I was only the fourth player ever to start a game at QB for the Cleveland Browns.
Mystery Player 4
I was a Kentucky Wildcat.
I was the second overall pick in my draft class.
I wore jersey number 67.
I spent ten years with the Bills, and finished up my career with two with the Chiefs.
***Extra Credit***
In 1990 Bruce Smith lead the Bills with 19 sacks. Who was second?
Three players were tied in third with 4, name them.
What positions did Paul McGuire play for the Bills?

I remember because there was a huge drop off from his 19 to like 5 or 6

What is surprising is that I check this out, and all the answers are there, what isn’t surprising is that Matt didn’t cheat and that is probably why he is wrong.

Well I should start getting better at this with all the research for the history posts I’ve been doing.

Ahh, humbug. Either I’m getting dumber, or your TMT’s are just getting tougher.
Still was a nice fit for his two seasons here.

If I had to guess
The next two would be Shane Conlan and Ray Bentley.

Was Marvcus Patton on the team? Mike Lodish?

One of those names is correct.

Hint:
The name that is wrong, plays the same position as the correct answer.

Did Maguire play LB, RB and Punter?

I had LB and Punter, but I guess he might have lined up in the backfield at times.

My inability to answer the majority of these old school Bills trivia questions depresses me. Thanks for ruining my day, Eric.

Actually, seeing eric without pants makes me feel better about myself.
For reasons that should appear obvious.

The fact that you have seen my without my pants on with out my knowledge creeps me out Matt. Stalking is a crime.

I still think you went through my mail and stole someone else’s invite. I don’t remember sending one to you.
- mail theft
- stalking

HA.
This reminds me of the invitation to the pants party line from Anchorman.
“*cough*lookoverhere Excuse me, Veronica. I’d like to extend to you an invitation to the pants party.”
