It's a rare thing to say that a team misses Lynn Dickey on the field. Known more for his power rankings than his quarterbacking prowess, Dickey has had a dubious TLL journey. However, in 1980 Dickey had played well up until his first quarter shoulder injury against the Chargers in Week 3.

Dickey's injury brought David Whitehurst into the starting role, with Bill Troup, the improbable single game passing leader, coming in as a backup. Combined, these two quarterbacks comprised the worst combination of quarterbacking ATTs the league has seen this season. On the TLL Week 4 podcast coach cheapcatch thought the Chiefs game was one the Packers could win under normal circumstances, but toting out Whitehurst and Troup is anything but. Cheapcatch went on to say that he thought the Chiefs would win the game on the strength of the Packers abysmal duo.

Come late Wednesday night, cheapcatch's nightmarish prediction rang true. Troup's magic was bottled up on the sideline all game, while Whitehurst threw more interceptions (3) than completions (2). The Packers would lose the game by a single touchdown, 17-10, despite losing the turnover battle 4-0. Whitehurst was White-wurst, and upon Lynn Dickey's return David should skip the player's bench and start finding a job at White-Castle.
