Thrill Posted February 27, 2019 Report Share Posted February 27, 2019 He came to my high school when I was a junior or senior. He basically told us how he forgot to put his name on his SAT and got the lowest possible score. Then he told us not to drop out even though my high school had a 99% graduation rate. Idk why he came honestly Number9 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oiler FANatic Posted February 27, 2019 Report Share Posted February 27, 2019 Chris "Tippy Toes" Sanders was lightning quick running down the sidelines. He holds a dubious NFL record for the fewest career rushing yards at -36 since the merger in 1970. Number9, and begooode 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yoshimitsu Posted February 27, 2019 Report Share Posted February 27, 2019 The biggest “What if?” WR we had, IMO, was Tyrone Calico. He has made some huge strides from year one to two, but had his knees blown up by (was it?) Roy Williams via horsecoller tackle. His career was ended via that tackle and he had been almost forgotten as being one of the players that caused the horsecoller tackle to become a flaggable offense. I remember being at a preseason game and early on he was targeted in the endzone, and Calico made this super athletic catch over the CB while being able to drag his toes to stay in bounds. Once his career was in the can, the only other story I remember of him was when he banged that girl in the back of his car and was caught lol.

BudsOilers Posted February 27, 2019 Report Share Posted February 27, 2019 He basically was a good vertical threat as a rookie but once teams adjusted he was completely below par Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
scine09 Posted February 27, 2019 Report Share Posted February 27, 2019 Most of you probably don't remember this because it happened when they were in Houston but they were playing the Chiefs on a Sunday night game, the Oilers had 4th and forever late and had to go for it because there wasn't much time left and Chris Chandler threw a hail mary up that Sanders caught for a TD. That's my Chris Sanders memory. They somehow lost that game in regulation as they got the ball back, Todd McNair had a decent run and the Chiefs stripped him and returned it for a TD. Does anyone remember that game or the Sanders play? OILERMAN 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tex in a Can Posted February 27, 2019 Report Share Posted February 27, 2019 (edited) Here's my take. Chris Sanders was playing very well the first 2 years when Chris Chandler was throwing accurate passes to him. He had a habit of jumping for every ball regardless of whether or not it was needed, I found that annoying. He really liked Chandler's ball, usually a tight spiral and usually required little adjustment. Once McNair took over, the balls were more off and McNair's ball had varying speed. Sanders never adjusted well especially the first 2 years of McNair under center, and developed a habit of dropping passes.

BudsOilers Posted February 27, 2019 Report Share Posted February 27, 2019 (edited) I remember that game. Sanders also had a nice catch in the infamous McNair gane at Pittsburgh where he came off the bench (sternum injury) after O’Donnell got creamed to lead the Titans down the field. Winning TD to Kinney. Edited February 27, 2019 by BudAdams Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had a lot of ridiculous losses in their last 3 years there. The most bizarre one had to be the one at Seattle their final year there when the game winning FG attempt was blocked and Seattle returned it for a TD to win it.

That was a Denver game in the Astrodome. I was there. He had like a 76(?)yder and they called it a TD but he was honestly short. Sanders caught 3 TDs in that game as well.
