Vs Series: Ken Anderson vs Boomer Esiason

[Shake n Blake]

Fun fact about Boomer. He would probably be a HOF lock if he'd spent his entire career with Coslet. He was a different player without him.

With Coslet:
7 seasons
51-43 record
22,719 yards
152 TDs to 86 INTs
89.0 passer rating (top tier for the era)

Without Coslet:
7 seasons
29-50 record
15,201 yards
95 TDs to 98 INTs
71.5 passer rating

This went for his time with the Jets as well. He made the Pro Bowl with Coslet, then fell off hard when Coslet left.

Then after looking completely washed for several years, he comes back to Cincy and plays like an MVP with Coslet.
