His receptions and yards would've been very good. But his TD's could've been untouchable. Over 1/3 of his receptions were TD's which is fucking bananas.

You Sir, are correct. I had forgotten what a screwed up season '87 was and that the first two games were not played by the Scabs.
However, I stand by my premise that the Dickerson trade did not make the Colts appreciably better. Ron Meyer had as much to do with the Colts success as anyone.
If Bennett wasn't going to play for the Colts, then I would have traded with the Steelers for Rod Woodson and picks.
