Anybody old enough to remember Jim Plunkett's days with the Raiders (or older, like me, remember him as a Patriot) can recall long bombs. Plunkett is part of 1970's football lore.
In NE it was Plunkett to Daryl Stingley, Randy Vataha, and tight end Russ Francis. In Oakland it was Plunkett to Cliff Branch, our old friend, Bobby Chandler, or tight ends like Dave Casper & Todd Christensen.
Apparently all that football has caught up with the 69 year old Plunkett. Memories. He was fun to watch.
