Logo of the Houston Gamblers of the now defunct United States Football League. Although they were coached by the conservative Jack Pardee, the Gamblers were one of the league’s most exciting teams, as offensive coordinator Mouse Davis installed his “run and shoot” offense, orchestrated by future Hall of Fame quarterback Jim Kelly. The offense threw the ball all over the field, racking up yardage and lighting up the scoreboard, using 4 wide receiver sets and small, quick receivers, the most notable of them being Ricky Sanders, Richard Johnson and Gerald McNeil.

Thank you Gamblers for giving us Bills fans Jim Kelly. We never had to suffer through his rookie growing pains or sophmore slump!
