Tuesday Morning Bills Trivia

I've been reading a lot of Buffalo Bills-related material lately, the results of which can be found here. The increased Bills knowledge has really improved my trivia contest making skills, if I do say so myself. It is becoming harder and harder to make these without making them super tough. I'm not really sure what the point of saying all of that is other than to have something for the intro, which most of you don't even read. Okay, trivia away.
Mystery Player 1
I was a Cyclone.
I was a defensive end in college but moved to linebacker in the pros.
I was in the same draft class as Joe DeLamielleure.
I wore number 52.
Mystery Player 2
I attended Notre Dame.
My likeness is on Ray Abruzzese's 1964 Topps football card.
I was the color commentator for Bills broadcasts for a time.
I signed Eric's copy of Tale of the Tape. (Hope you paid attention!)
Mystery Player 3
I attended East Tennessee State University.
I also attended Alabama at Birmingham University.
I am currently the defensive backs coach at Austin Peay University.
I played for three NFL teams during my career.
Mystery Player 4
I was a teammate of Jim Kelly's in both Buffalo and with the Houston Gamblers.
Other than the Bills, the only other NFL team that I played for was the Kansas City Chiefs.
I am a member of the Arena Football League Hall Of Fame.
I was an All-American in both 1980 and 1981.
***Extra Credit***
Who caught Jim Kelly's first ever touchdown pass as a Bill? (Hope you watched that video!)
Who or what did the Bills trade to the Seattle Seahawks for Pete Metzelaars?

Good stuff, eric.
I don’t know any of them. All the Bills I’ve been reading about for the history deal are morphing together in my mind. :-)

You know you could have always gone back and watched it again.

Watching it is cheating!
There was a long TD pass to Andre Reed in that game which I think may have been the first one.

Eric - with knowledge comes power
Tough ones today
I’ll guess at first 2 – both have real Buffalo sounding names
1. Jim Cheyunski
2. Ed Rutkowski

2 is correct.
while #1 is wrong, the correct answer does have a very Buffalo sounding name.

Did you really know all that off the top of your head?
It went on long enough without anybody getting them so i don’t mind if you cheated, I just want to know how good you really are.

busted
ah, the power of the internet. No I didn’t really know any, but it’s still not easy to find the answers sometimes. I like doing Bills research and I know how tough it is to come up with Bills trivia that’s difficult enough to not be a gimme, but not so hard that no one could possibly get it, since I do weekly trivia for our Bills Backers club during the season. I can’t do anything harder than who was the Bills punter in their first Super Bowl? (should be a gimme for you) I’ll check back for more trivia because I love it, but if I have to look it up, I’ll keep it to myself in the future.

Well I used Darwin Walker and he played in zero games as a Bill so 2 games is better right?
