Rote & Blanda: Tale of 2
THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 16, No. 3 (1994) ROTE & BLANDA: TALE OF 2 QBS Birth of the AFL in 1960 changed the course of two careers By Bob Gill Any reasonably attentive sports fan is aware that chance can play a significant role in a player's career. An injury can give a backup his big break, while bringing a veteran's career to a premature end. A star's ill-timed holdout can be another player's ticket to fame and fortune. And so on - it happens every season. Usually, breaks like these benefit rookies or younger players who haven't had a chance at a regular job. But one of the most interesting "right-place-at-the-right-time" stories involves a pair of ten-year veterans whose places in football history were determined after their NFL careers ended. It happened in the 1960s, and the players involved were a couple of pretty fair quarterbacks: George Blanda and Tobin Rote. But let's start at the beginning ... Blanda broke in with the Bears in 1949, but the 12th-round draft choice saw little action behind Johnny Lujack and aging Sid Luckman. He played even less at QB for the next two years, throwing only one pass and spending most of his time as a linebacker and kicker. Meanwhile, Rote had been taken by the Packers in the second round of the 1950 draft and suffered through a tough rookie season, throwing a league-high 24 interceptions. Facing a challenge from a talented passer named Bobby Thomason in 1951, he improved his passing stats and really shone as a runner, leading the team with 523 yards and leading the league with an average of 6.9 yards per carry. -

When the Nfl Had Character
THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 16, No. 1 (1995) WHEN THE NFL HAD CHARACTER By Stanley Grosshandler Two generations of football fans have grown up since the 1953 season, part of the decade called "The Golden Age of the NFL." Younger fans today may find it surprising to learn that the NFL was losing star players back then to the draft (remember the draft?) and to the Canadian Football League. The Korean Conflict had siphoned several top men into the service, including Cleveland tackle Bob Gain, the Cardinals great Ollie Matson, and San Francisco's versatile tackle Bob Toneff. Meanwhile, the Canadian Football League made some inroads by luring a handful north of the border. Among the emmigrants were Cleveland's star end Mac Speedie, the Giants' center-tackle Tex Coulter and defensive end Ray Poole, San Francisco defensive back Jim Cason, and an Eagle receiver named Bud Grant who would return a dozen years later as a coach. Although these and several other well-known players missed the 1953 season, the league still continued to grow in popularity -- due in part to the individual aura that made each team special. Teams then had a their own particular character and each had an identifiable leader. They were not the plastic, look-alike teams who strive today for parity (another name for mediocracy) and play for the field goal. Reviewing those rosters of forty years ago can still produce chills among some "veteran" fans. The Cleveland Browns had the confidence and composure of their coach Paul Brown. They did not have to be told they were winners. -

When the Eagles Flew High
THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 19, No. 3 (1997) WHEN THE EAGLES FLEW HIGH By Stanley Grosshandler To have one top flight center is a real luxury to any NFL team today; to have three, well that is just unheard of. One team, the 1949 Philadelphia Eagles had such a prominent trio in Alex Wojciechowicz, Chuck Bednarik, and Vic Lindskog. Alex and Chuck made the Hall of Fame, while Vic was voted the best center in the league in 1951. Wojie, the elder statesman of the trio, had been a two-time All-American at Fordham where he centered the legendary "Seven Rocks of Granite." One story had it that he went to a coach and asked him if he should change his name so that people might have an easier time remembering him. The coach replied, "Son the way you play nobody will forget you." Alex entered the NFL in 1938 with the Lions, going to the Eagles in 1946. He retired in 1951 after playing parts of three decades and was elected to the Hall of Fame in 1968. The second Hall of Fame pivot man, Chuck Bednarik, came to the Eagles in 1949. He was their bonus draft choice from Penn where he too had been an All-American. He made All-League eight times and as late as 1960 was playing both ways on the championship Eagle team. The last player to do this, his jersey hangs in the Hall of Fame as a tribute to this feat. A bruising tackler, he was often quoted as saying he enjoyed hitting and any player who didn't should not be out there.
