Much traveled coach who led Buffalo to its two AFL championships in the 1960s and later coaced the team during OJ Simpson's record breaking season, as well as a lot of other not-so-illustrious stops along the way. Age 87.

The fact that his death occurred immediately after the Bills signing Terrell Owens is merely a coincidence.
RIP Lou Saban

Re: RIP Lou Saban
Quoting Pat Bowlen --
“Lou Saban should be credited as the individual who first brought respectability to the Denver Broncos. Even though I was not here at the time, upon buying the Broncos in 1984, I began learning the history of the club and realized Lou’s importance to this franchise. It was Lou who moved the Broncos into their first training facility and changed the team’s helmet design to the style featuring the ‘D’ with the horse, a logo that became so symbolic with this franchise and its success for nearly 30 years” (Denver Post).
