Yeah. Green started the last part of the '98 season and his play was not Tier 2 (whatever that is). That's why St. Louis signed him to what seemed like at the time a big contract. I went to an early game in 98 that the Skins lost to then-juggernaut Denver and I immediately could tell that Green could see the field better than anyone we had started in years. He got the ball out in time to the right people. I remember being angry at Norv for leaving him on the bench for three years. If he had played in 96 and 97, I believe we would have made the playoffs.
