The most dynamic dual-threat quarterback the NFL had seen since the days of Fran Tarkenton, quarterback Randall Cunningham oversaw a Philadelphia Eagles offense that helped the team win double-digit games each year between 1988 and 1992 (though he missed much of the 1991 season due to injury). However, though the Eagles qualified for the postseason in four of those five years, they never made it past the Divisional Round; he went 0-3 in his first three playoff starts.

Cunningham’s playoff shortcomings reached their apex after the 1998 season, after he and the record-breaking Minnesota Vikings offense couldn’t take the final step in reaching the Super Bowl, when they were famously upset by the Atlanta Falcons in the NFC Championship game.
