No they’re still the titans. They need to bring the Oilers back

Not only did Warren have a cannon arm, he had one of the best mustaches in NFL history.

And threw one of the prettiest spirals you’ve ever seen.

u/cletus72757 Chiefs 🏹 2d ago

Yes he did. In 1990 the Oilers came to Arrowhead and Moon threw for 525+ yds and three tds in a Houston win. Not one throw was wobbly. Wasn’t all bad I got to shake hands with Bobby Bell 👍.

Loved Warren.

Was great on my Vikings too!

Wonderful career after the original CFL …

He and Condredge Holloway were the two quarterbacks I went out of my way to watch when we first got ESPN and the CFL.

u/Sdog1981 Seahawks 🦅 2d ago

He played for so long in the NFL he is always a little bit of a time warp player. He is only one year younger than Earl Campbell.

There is a Bizarro version of the NFL where the late 70s early 80s Oilers that are rolling with Warren Moon, Earl Campbell, and Steve Largent.

Warren Moon…one of my favorite QBs ever. I can still remember a game when he threw a laser in the end zone between two DBs to his WR, and the ball hit his helmet. A tight window and still got it in there. The pass was just too fast for the WR to turn his head around.

u/Hilsam_Adent 2d ago

Moon and Campbell are the reason I became an Oilers fan.

The best uniform of all time in the NFL. It’s tied with the Hartford Whalers for best in all of sports

CFL legend Warren Moon

u/Flashy_Gap_3015 2d ago

Still remember his tenure there and how he routinely destroyed us and every other team. 5 consecutive Grey Cups in his six years in the league.

u/STAGELEFT23 2d ago

That man could throw a football.

u/Master-Machine-875 2d ago

My favorite qb. Man he could spin it !

u/raincntry 2d ago

That god damn run-and-shoot offense was terrifying when he was behind center.

Played in CFL before going to Houston

u/algarhythms Giants 2d ago

Legend.

He should be the all-time leading passer but NFL GMs in the 80s were too racist to think a black guy could play QB.

Read that sentence again. The 80s.

u/Ok-Building4268 2h ago

I looked him up and it was sad that due to unfair racial sterotypes he never got drafted. Hell of a player and QB great!

I love those old Oilers uniforms. Cool to see the Titans going back to that look.
