Elway was a throwback to some of the old school QB's like Stabler and Kilmer. They say he'd down case of beer along with drinking whiskey out of the bottle the night before a home game.
This guy!
Roger Stauback and Tom Landry ... two class acts that will never be replaced imo.Roger Staubach was my favorite.
my favorite that isnt a HOF QB though was Steve Deberg.
that guy had horrible luck. All he was ever replaced by was HOFers right after he gets to his new job pretty much LOL
Denver got Elway
SF got Joe Montana (they actually had posters of Deberg & Walsh saying something about changing the game. Their team wasnt all that back then)
Then went to the hapless Buccs & then they drafted Steve Young.
Finally in KC he got to start for awhile.
I will always remember him playing Football with a pin sticking out of his Pinky, Grimacing just taking the snaps from center. Back when football players were allowed to be football players!
That is my favorite "non favorite team" QB.
Before Seattle got a franchise, I pulled for the Vikings ... probably because they were on TV a lot back then.
Fran Tarkenton was mine (I'm showing my age =/).
This guy!
This guy!
The fact that it was against the Cowboys didn't hurt. When you were an Eagles fan growing up, you had a "second team" because your team stunk. My second team was always the Niners in the Walsh era.
