The outcome was just right for Craig Rand a civilian in munitions management at Rhein main. A i m cheering for the Bills a he said a but my Money is on the redskins. So every time the skins score my Wallet  dealing up wrong kind of numbers by Chris Dufresne the los Angeles times Minneapolis Buffalo Bill quarterback Jim Kelly set super bowl records that did not matter picked the wrong year to score 24 Points took a step backward on the Road to immortality and made it Safe for John Elway to come outside. After sundays 37-24 loss to the Washington redskins in super bowl xxvi Kelly has some explaining to do Back Home in Western Pennsylvania the Cradle of super bowl Champion quarterbacks. Joe Montana who hails from Monongahela has won four super bowls without a loss. Joe Namath from Beaver Falls pa., put the american football league Terry Bra Shaw grow up with the Pitts run Steeles. Kelly wears uniform no. On the map with a Victory in super bowl Iii. Pittsburgh a John Unitas stuck around Long enough to accept a ring for super bowl v. Jim Kelly badly wants in the fraternity. He grew up in East Brady pa., watching a a a a ids Burg 12 in Bradshaw a Honor. Bradshaw pulled Kelly aside last week and told him that statistics were for accountants that the ring was the thing. Some people thought Bradshaw was dumb until be won four super bowls. So what does Kelly do he sets a super bowl record for most passes 58, in a losing cause. He throws four interceptions tying Craig Morton for that Dishonour. He completes 28 passes throws for 275 Yards All for the Benefit of statisticians. Kelly joined the wrong list of super bowl quarterbacks. He joined the one that has Elway and fran Tarkenton at 03 and Craig Morton and now Kelly at 0-2. A i would like to win one a Kelly said after sundays loss. A Bradshaw had been my idol so was Joe Namath. I guess it just Wasny to meant to  being in the right place at the right time is what history is All about. Twenty four Points would have been plenty enough to beat the new York giants in super bowl xxv but it did not come close against Washington like a joke Cigar the game exploded in Kelly a face starting with the first snaps from scrimmage when his Star tailback Thurman Thomas was left on the sideline looking for his helmet like some 10-year-old playing pop Warner. A i said a what the hell is going on a a Kelly recalled afterwards. A i said a did he pull something a a then came the Kelly interceptions four in All. He said this is a game film he will not watch again. A maybe i  remember most of it Quot he said. A maybe its better off that
