What points do you get for being one of the best players to come out of Vermont? Okay, not that much, but regardless of what state Steve Wisniewski came from, there was no doubt that he was one of the finest Offensive Linemen of the 1990s.
Steve Wisniewski was the de facto leader of the Silver and Black’s O-Line for over a decade. Many considered him a dirty player, and to many, he was the embodiment of the Silver and Black. Regardless of whatever tactics the “Wiz” would use, there was no doubt that he was a talented Left Guard, and in addition to eight Pro Bowls, he was named to the prestigious NFL 1990s All-Decade team.
For reasons we have yet to figure out, Wisniewski has not received nearly the same support from the Raiders fan base as other former players with less of a resume. Can anyone explain that to us? Perhaps, because as good as he was, he was never part of a Raiders championship team.
