    Nice list... But MAny QBs on that list would Have a Major Hard time in Todays NFL. Like it or not...its True. Should be split into ERAs... 30s 40s the Formative ERA. 50`s 60`s the Original Contemporary ERA. 70s 80s the Modern ERA. and 90`s to Today the Advanced Modern ERA. The last Few Yrs of Each ERA do Overlap into the Next... But this list is NOT APPLES to APPLES ! If you think it is you are fooling yourself !

    Now maybe a couple Exception exist... But Guys that played in the 50s and before ... thats a TALL TASK !

    Climbing the Stairway...To SEVEN !!

      I stand humbly corrected.

      See, this is why STAN's board is THE place to post.

      Now, admittedly, you guys are ugly and have small penises, but you DO know your football.

      I'll STILL take Bradshaw.

      How can you say Browns Board patrons have small penises. Why, here is a photo taken at one of our tailgate parties in The Flats:

        I disagree. I believe those old time QBs could have easily adopted to today's game. I am sure most of them had the intelligence and capability of playing now.

        "Todays" QBs may trend to be a little taller.

        As I have said many times, Otto Graham ran what was essentially the WCO of his day. He could have run it now.

        Saying that those QBs could not exceed now would be like saying that, say, Bob Feller could not have pitched now.

        Bob Feller had a 98-100 mph fastball. That is fast now, then, any time. And these QBs could have played no as well.Now, if you had said that a 230 lb. offensive lineman couldn't play today, that is a horse of a different color. That would be true, but, those 230 OL in 1950 would probably be 300 lb. linemen today.
