Otto Graham had fellow Hall of Famers Marion Motley a stud RB/FB and WR Dante Levelli, can't think of a better set of Triplets before them. All in the Hall of Fame.
First time I heard that word Triplets when talking football was Troy Aikman, Emmitt, Irvin, once again all in the Hall of Fame but between that Browns and Cowboy gang was the Colts with John Unitas, RB Lenny Moore, WR Ray Berry (and HOFer to be TE John Mackey) all in the Hall of Fame,
When the AFL came into existance in 1960, the Chargers after a few seasons had Tobin Rote, RB Paul Lowe, WR Lance Alworth (stud FB Keith Lincoln***) set of Triplets. That was the starting backfield in one of the All Star games, all Chargers. Those Dan Fouts Chargers teams with Muncie, Joiner, Jefferson, Chandler, hell,,,Winslow.
The Bills had Jim Kelly, Thurman Thomas, Andre Reed all Hall of Famers, Those 70;s Steelers teams had Hall of Famers Terry Bradshaw, Franco Harris, John Stallworth ( ok ok Lynn Swann) all in the Hall of Fame
I'm thinking the Seahawks will have the best triplets in franchise history with Russell Wilson, Chris Carson, DK Metcalf
Who am I missing?
*** dude scored...
passing
rushing
receiving
punt return..yep, a FB returning punts
kickoff return
field goals
extra points
