Say what you will but Sam Wyche knew how to motivate. Remember:
“You don’t live in Cleveland!”
I remember those old AFC Central black and bluer division days. Wyche, Shottenheimer, Noll and Glanville. Those teams all hated each other.
Another thing about that Oiler game i remember: The media asked Sam after the game if he had any regrets in regards to kicking that late filed goal to make the score I think was 61 - 7. He said "Yes, he regretted there wasn't a few more seconds on the clock so they could score more!"
Classic Sam Wyche.
