I do not have a particular one, but as a kid I thought Erik Kramer was the best QB in the league lol. I even had my parents buy me his jersey.

It was Dec. 18, 1977. It was an icy field and Paul Horning Packers golden boy was calling the game one sidedly for the Giants. The game went into overtime with the playoffs on the line. Bob Thomas hit a field goal for the win. That kick ended a 14 year playoff drought. I can still see that kick clear the crossbar. The second most beautiful thing I’d ever seen.
