Reich Man for the Job
Frank Reich wasn't your typical football player.
After all, not many quarterbacks can say they were able to lead their teams from the depths of despair - not once, but twice - en route to two of the greatest comebacks in sports history. But unlike many other professional athletes, Reich didn't want to bask in the glory of his accomplishments on the field. Sure, after his Maryland Terrapins were behind 31-0 in a 1984 contest against the Miami Hurricanes, Reich engineered one of the greatest comebacks in college football history, as Maryland prevailed against all odds with a 42-40 victory. And almost a decade later, in what Bills fans affectionately refer to as "The Comeback," Reich led Buffalo back from a 35-3 deficit to upstage the Houston Oilers in the AFC Wild Card game, this time by a score of 41-38.
