RIP: Dave Brown (1953-2006)

The Seahawks haven't won a playoff game since 1984, and one of the key players on that brilliant 1984 team was CB Dave Brown, who passed away on Tuesday after an apparent heart attack during a pick-up basketball game on the campus of Texas Tech University in Lubbock.

Brown spent 11 seasons with the Seahawks, after spending his rookie year on the Super Bowl Champion Pittsburgh Steelers roster. Brown finished his career with the Green Bay Packers, and totalled 62 interceptions in his career, which has him in a 7th place tie in NFL history.

Here's a link to the Seattle Times article about his passing.
