    It seems that #16 needs some challenge...

    16 = total # of season games
    16 = Kevin Thompson
    16 = last game @ New York Jets
    16 = seconds left to win against Tennessee when Bills scored a field goal to give a 16-15 lead, but the Music City Miracle, a lateral from Frank Wycheck to Kevin Dyson that led to a Tennessee touchdown on the ensuing kickoff lost the game for Buffalo.

      Billy Atkins had 10 interceptions to lead the AFL in 1960, and was a kick ass punter. What a crappy trade.
