| Sacked into a snowdrift Lambeau Field 1 December 1985 The background The most unbelievable game in franchise history played in the worst conditions I have ever seen for an NFL game. There was snow all over the field in Green Bay when the game started and it was compounded by a 30 mph wind and four inches of snow falling during the game itself. For most of the games, the lines on the field were invisible and any semblance of normal offense went out of the window. And the Bucs, with a grand total of two wins all season coming into the game, were in white. And at quarterback, making only his second NFL start having come over from the USFL, was Steve Young. He must have wondered why he had bothered leaving Los Angeles in the first place. The game situation This was just one play from many we could have used from this game but was one of Alphonso Carreker's four sacks on the day. Young admitted he could hardly breathe when he was flattened into a snowdrift on the field in Green Bay. Click here for the game reports and stats |
