Moon certainly had longevity on Kosar.    I mean, he played 17 years in the NFL on top of his years in Canada.  So his cumulative stats are going to be better than Bernie's, and it is cumulative stats that put him in the HOF.    And while he is not just an accumulater,   like say Vinnie Testaverde or Drew Bledsoe,  he was still not a prime time  playoff performer.    In his 17 years, his teams only made  7 playoff appearances  (and yes...you can't put everything on a QB...but that is what we do sometimes);  but he never made so much as a conference title game.   Kosar (the Browns)  made 5 playoff appearances as a starter his first 5 years...3 times taking the team to the AFC title game.  (note...while he did not play in the 1988 playoffs...being injured before they started, he did start the majority of the games that season). 

Of course, the teams they were on comes into the evaluation. As does coaching. That being said, I thought the Oilers' D was pretty loaded. In Bernie's era, Browns D was no slouch either.

FYI,  Browns:   Webster Slaughter  had  6 total, but 5 with the Browns.  Paul Warfield had 5 total...but 4 of  those were with Miami.   Gary Collins had 5....all with Browns.      So just with the Browns, Slaughter and Collins have had the most postseason TDs.
