Memories of Reggie

Following the unfortunate and untimely death of NFL star Reggie White, I decree that now is a great time for Packer fans to recall their favorite Reggie White moments. I will cite two:

(1) Week 6, 1993, nationally televised Sunday night game at Lambeau versus the visiting Broncos. John Elway is engineering a comeback in the final minute of the game. Reggie White sacks Elway on consecutive plays, third and fourth down, to seal the Packer victory 30-27. Impressive.

(2) Packers vs. Vikings, 1995. Warren Moon rolls right to pass, inexplicably delegating receiver Cris Carter to block Reggie White. In an amazing display of power, White throws Cris Carter about five yards backwards. The receiver hits and bounces at Warren Moon's feet! Moon had to actually hop back a half-yard to keep from getting tripped up by his teammate being thrown at him. Reggie then charged Moon to finish off the broken play.
