Kramer’s nickname in Detroit was “Brass”, a media-friendly redaction of “brass balls”.

In the 1991 playoffs, he led the team to a 38–6 drubbing of the Dallas Cowboys, on a franchise postseason record 29 completions for 341 yards and three touchdowns. He also had the team’s only touchdown in a loss to the Washington Redskins in the championship game. He remains the franchise leader in postseason completions (50), attempts (71), yards (590), and sacks (5) in a single season. Combined with a loss in the 1993 postseason, he holds the career franchise postseason records for touchdowns (5 with Tobin Rote), passer rating (99.2), sacks (9), and yards per attempt (8.2) as well.
