This will get moved to the Tailgate forum, but I remember Erich. He was an excellent player and had a certain grace about him. Of course, I was a kid, but he came across as being very classy. The number of All-Pro selections speak to just how damn good he was on the field.

RIP Erich, I swear my kids getting older, my age, almost anything has little effect on how old I feel, but when athletes I watched as a kid pass away, then it gets to me.

"First down inside the 10. A score here will put us in the Super Bowl. Jeudy is far to the left as Njoku settles into the slot. Tillman is flanked out wide to the right. Judkins and Ford are split in the backfield as Flacco takes the snap ... Here we go."
