He did a great job in replacing the recently-departed Lydell Mitchell, whom he was traded for to the Chargers just prior to the start of that season. Unfortunately, Bert Jones missed a great deal of that season because of the shoulder injury that he suffered when he was sacked by Bubba Baker in the final preseason game against the Lions.

Yep, Lydel was on on my favorite players at that time, devastated when he wasn't a Colt anymore, and then Joe W's magical night made a full fledged Colts forever fan and even then entrenched my hatred for the Pats- so for me it's not just a last 15- 20 year thing with them- it goes back to the 70's- that HATE is real!
