WTS, I had to go Anderson. Many do not realize how good of a running QB he was. It's an absolute shame he is not in the HOF.

Here's a video for some that may have not seen him play:

Boomer owns one of my favorite plays as well.

It was when he came in back in 1997. Blake started the first 11 games and we were like 3 and 8. He got hurt and Boomer took over (I believe it was the Dallas game). Ob his first play, Boomer handed off to Corey Dillon (Dillon's rookie season) on a sweep and then Boomer moved with Corey to the edge and made a lead block on a defensive back, leveling the guy. Corey had like a 20+ yard run on a third down play and I was like "Awesome!!!". The team won four of their next five including that game.

But, alas, Boomer didn't re-sign with the team after that. Some bad blood with the franchise. I can't blame him too much after the way he was let go originally.

All that said, I had to vote for Kenny. This was a tough call between Boomer, Kenny and Palmer. And Dalton could be in the mix eventually, if he wins in the post-season, IMO.
