It was a really big deal at the time because only 1 or 2 rookies in NFL history had ever done that before.
Maybe 3, I don't remember, but it wasn't many.
Also the same year we went to our first Super Bowl.
And, I hate to say this, but I think at the time Collinsworth was more popular because he was a white WR. He was always well-spoken and had a vibrant personality, but it didn't hurt that he was white.
