Posted May 17, 20205 yr it would be illegal (blindside... offensive player beyond the LOS heading back towards the LOS to engage) by todays standards but was a clean block at the time...
May 19, 20205 yr I was at that game. one of the first games I ever tailgated at. that hit was insane live.
May 20, 20205 yr Rumor was Pepper Johnson wanted to join the space program so, always helpful, Byars launched him into orbit.
January 20, 20214 yr Byars was Pepper Johnson's brother-in-law........that must have made for some good holiday conversations......."....hey Pepper, remember that time i destroyed you on a block......good times"
January 22, 20214 yr This pops up on here from time to time, and I always need to comment. Was a real "wow" moment for me, kind of solidified me nailing my colours to the Eagles. Word has it , Pepper's team mates asked if he was ok and he replied "yeah it wasn't that bad" Then the replay came up and he said "yaeh, ok, it was that bad" 😄
