RGIII may have something to say about that.

I guess we need to give him a year or two.

If SSIII doesn't chime in I'm going to start it over and lobby for Sonny as QB and for Sammy as punter. That way we have our best passer ever, the best punter ever AND a great backup at QB and safety.

The way it works is simple: each week, everyone votes on a position until we have our full roster.

Baugh was a great quarterback, but not the incredible technician that Jurgensen was. Baugh's real strength was his overall play, and tireless tenacity. As pointed out by DM, Baugh was arguably the best punter, and among the best Safety's ever to play the game, as well...
Theisman does not belong on this list. He is not in the HOF, and never will be.

Unless you're thinking RG3 will win 2 NFL titles during those two years he still will have a long way to go to even be mentioned in the same breath as Sammy Baugh! While I will admit Sonny might have ben the better passer, Sammy was the better QB.
Sonny had the benefit of throwing the ball to the best WR duo in NFL history. Think about it, he had two legit HoF WRs to chuck the ball to. How many QB can say that? Don't say Bradshaw, because, in my mind, Stallworth and Swann being in the HoF is a JOKE!!!
Sammy is the best QB in Skins history and quite possibly the best overall player in NFL history!

Hey, I never saw Sammy Baugh play but I know he is the best of the bunch. Using your age as a crutch seems kind of weak. But it's your vote, you can do with it whatever you like.

Yes, I am and I'm confident I'm right, but hey that is just my opinion (even if itis right)!ATX_Skins wrote:All of the real athletes during that time were in Europe or the Pacific.
