The Philadelphia Eagles of the late 1980s and early 1990s were one of the most entertaining watches in the league due to the physics-defying plays of superstar quarterback Randall Cunningham. The Eagles legend turns 57 today, and his highlights from his prime during the Buddy Ryan days in Philadelphia will still make your jaw hit the floor after all these years.

Cunningham, nicknamed "The Ultimate Weapon", made four Pro Bowls and one First Team All-Pro in his career. In addition to throwing for nearly 30,000 yards and 207 touchdowns, he also ran for nearly 5,000 yards in his career, including 942 during the 1990 season.

Later in his career, Cunningham reinvented himself with the Minnesota Vikings, where he led the team to a 15-1 record and set team and league records alongside Cris Carter and Randy Moss.

Cunningham's athleticism at the position was unrivaled until Michael Vick came into the league. He might have played in the pre-Twitter days, but he would have broken social media when he pulled off plays like his famous 99-yard touchdown in Buffalo or his miraculous touchdown pass on Monday Night against the Giants.

From carrying some bad Eagles teams to the playoffs, his bazooka of a right arm, and his limitless highlight reel, Cunningham is one of the most electrifying players to watch at any position in the history of football. More than just a highlight reel, Cunningham's numbers prove he was one of the best quarterbacks of his era.
