Plunkett. He was traded from the 49ers in '77.

He didn't play at all in 78 and was on the Raiders in 79. Why would he be featured on the box in a 2 year old photo in another team's uniform? Just a random action shot maybe?

Good question. No idea. Perhaps they meant to frame Doug English #78 for the Lions and an All-Pro in '78 in the photo, but the crop job was terrible

I agree it's Plunkett. What's eerie is the likeness he has to Montana.

Yep, definitely Plunkett. Another sure giveaway is the two-bar mask, which is what Jim Plunkett wore for the Patriots, 49ers, and Raiders. Joe Montana always wore an OPO mask, not a two-bar.

Perhaps. I was hoping it was an action shot of Joe. The wristband is what sealed the deal for me. I looked at photos of Plunkett and that is part of his look.

Plunkett was a guy who would go 7-17 with 145 yards, but would have 3TDs and a big win.
