Let it go slugger, ok?

definitely not the sharpest tool in the shed Sparky, are yaCool, now run along little fella.
So you aren't really talking about Baugh and Otto as they actually were? I thought that was what this was about,, it's not? You are making them into a modern version?

Almost forgot.. when they are flushed by a DL-man looking to do them harm, they can just throw the ball away without penalty to avoid getting tackled... oh, and sliding.. when they do take off and run, they just slide instead of getting tackled. In the old days they'd get crushed in both circumstances.
Dude, did you ever see......the old days? No offense but you really aren't getting this.
Sister's ass is just a general saying like fuggetttabouttit . The 3 Stooges have as much relevance here as your track times. Track is zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. I'll watch you and hopefully my game will be elevated one day, baby steps like a 4min /40Not the one posting pictures of the three stooges and talking about a strangers sisters, now am I? Dude, elevate your game ok slick?
I never saw Graham or Baugh play and neither have you. I've been a fan and observer since the early/mid 60s.
I think that you are the one who isn't getting it by not addressing the fact that the physical demands of the sport do not apply to the position of QB anywhere near the extent they do at literally every other position.
But Graham & Baugh were both tremendous athletes and would be considered mobile QBs today on par with at minimum an Aaron Rogers or Drew Brees, though both Otto & Sammy probably had better wheels than either of those guys.

Drew Brees is not a mobile QB
Anyway....
Graham played in 12 game seasons, he rarely had a 60 or better completion %, his QB rating was so so.
The thing about him is he was so far superior to the other QB;s in hid era as was Baugh in his, hell, give me the name of another QB in the days of Sammy Baugh, yep, ya can't (save the Google) Who was Grahams rival?
What these guys did in their era was amazing, fantastic, awesome, but........we leave it there. There is noway they are doing what they did vs the defenses that game later.
You talked about Baugh being a great athlete, RGIII was a fantastic athlete, he could have played cornerback, returned kicks, WR. He was a stud hurdler while at Baylor, so what happened?
He was mobile enough for a HOF career... so is Rodgers.
Right.. that's how long the season was. But they threw downfield more often back then. Look at avg yards per completion career.. they're all old timers because when they threw, they threw downfield.
WC offense and the dink & dunk passing game changed everything. The passing game has changed because the rules have changed to make passing easier. DBs could mug receivers until the ball was in the air back then. OLmen get to hold now.
Do you think that completion % has gone up because QBs are more accurate passers? On average they may be, but no. The rules changed so the types of passes they throw has changed to mostly short, high percentage stuff. Graham & Baugh would probably complete 70% of their passes today. Hell Baugh did that one year back then.
Why? What difference does that make?
I raised Baugh's (and Graham's) athleticism because you seemed to be stuck on asserting that they were not tough or athletic enough. The clearly were, which their all-around athletic success proves. Turns out RG3 wasn't very good at QB. It happens. Why you raise RG3 is a mystery.
