Jim Kelly
He led the Buffalo Bills to four consecutive Super Bowls in 1991-1994; In 2002, he was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame
Kelly was selected 14th overall by the Buffalo Bills in the first round of the 1983 NFL Draft, but his initial decision to play in the USFL delayed his NFL debut. Once he joined the Bills, Kelly quickly became the centerpiece of their offense, utilizing the innovative "K-Gun" system, which emphasized no-huddle shotgun formations. This offensive strategy allowed the Bills to become one of the most potent scoring teams in the NFL. From 1990 to 1993, Kelly led the Bills to an unprecedented four consecutive Super Bowl appearances, a feat that remains unmatched in NFL history, although the team was unable to secure a victory in any of those games.
Throughout his career, Kelly earned numerous accolades, including five Pro Bowl selections and first-team All-Pro honors in 1991. His leadership and skill on the field were instrumental in the Bills' success during the early 1990s. Kelly's contributions to the game extended beyond his individual achievements, as he helped elevate the Bills into one of the most formidable teams of the era. Alongside teammates Thurman Thomas and Bruce Smith, Kelly's number 12 jersey was retired by the Bills, a testament to his lasting legacy with the franchise.
In 2002, Kelly was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame, solidifying his place among the greatest quarterbacks in NFL history. His career is remembered not only for his on-field accomplishments but also for his resilience and leadership. Kelly's impact on the game continues to be felt, and his legacy as a key figure in the Buffalo Bills' storied history remains strong.
