Football Frankenset - Kickoff Weekend 2020

No better time to post a Frankenset post than after wrapping up Week one of the 2020 season.

#16 - 1996 Pinnacle Summit - Emmitt Smith

This card went from an obvious "Silence of the Lambs" reference, to something dumb about The 'Rona.

#21 - Topps Precision - Peyton Hillis

Facemask looks like a cross between Bebop and Bane, also love fullbacks as the main feature back.

#90 - 2007 Topps Total - Neil Rackers / Scott Player

From what I can find Scott Player was the last guy to wear a single bar mask, and also the last player to use the single bar as a chin strap.

#94 - 2008 Score Update - John Lynch

Remember when John Lynch played with the Patriots? No? That's because he didn't in the regular season.

#98 - 2017 Panini - Adrian Peterson

Part of the weird career (and personal life) of Peterson, this from his 4 game stop with the Saints.

#156 - 2004 Topps Total - Jason Witten

Kind of an oddball, Witten wearing #49 from what I guess is from a 2003 Preseason game on a 2004 card.

#168 - 1999 Pacific - Craig Heyward

Love me some "Iron Head" Heyward, from his sunset season in which he played in 4 games with the Colts.

#179 - 2009 Topps - Karlos Dansby

Just a great photo including the Gene Upshaw Memorial patch worn in week one of 2008.

#193 - 2017 Classics - Ray Guy

Hall of Fame Punter on a faux-retro card.

#249 - 1992 Collector's Edge - Eric Dickerson

I have no memory of Eric Dickerson with the Raiders, although he had a pretty good year in his lone season there, and I probably watched this game judging by the Redskins cameo in the back. Also I love the simple black borders of this set.

#604 - 1992 Pacific - Craig McEwen

A former replacement player for the 1987 Scabskins who went on the have a pretty good 5 year NFL career.
