I'm pretty sure he created a fumble and recoverd and scored a touch down and won us the game. OR he intercepted a pass and then won us a game by scoring a touchdown. I remember we were losing and I believe it was Powell who was the hero one week. Can anybody remember???

I remember Powell caused a fumble and ran it in for a touchdown, but I think that was in a pre-season game...

We had Carl Powell for one season. 2002, with Marvin, like the boys said. He forced two fumbles: one at Philly in that 34-21 loss, and one in the Campo Bowl where we (finally) beat Dallas 20-14. (I don't get the preseason games here in NY, so I couldn't help you there.) Neither was returned for a score.
Marvin liked him from his Colt days. He's a fast learner and a tenacious tackler.
I thought we'd have a hard time replacing him on the depth chart.
