  • Are You Ready for Some Super-Senior Football?
    Oldest living players Are you ready for some super-senior football? Starting East team quarterback Ace Parker (Information was current as of May 2013 when article appeared in Sports Collectors Digest magazine) By George Vrechek Can you imagine a tackle football game featuring the oldest living NFL players with some of the guys in their 90s? Well to tell the truth, I can’t really imagine it either. However that doesn’t stop me from fantasizing about the possibility of a super-senior all-star game featuring players who appeared on football cards. After SCD featured my articles earlier this year about the (remote) possibility of a game involving the oldest living baseball players, you knew it wouldn’t be long before you read about the possibility of a super-senior football game. Old-timers have been coming back to baseball parks for years to make cameo appearances. Walter Johnson pitched against Babe Ruth long after both had retired. My earlier articles proposed the possibility of getting the oldest baseball players (ranging in age from 88 to 101) back for one more game. While not very likely, it is at least conceivable. Getting the oldest old-timers back for a game of tackle football, on the other hand, isn’t very likely. We can probably think about a touch game, but the players would properly insist that touch is not the same game. If the game were played as touch football, the plethora of linemen would have to entertain one another, while the players in the skill positions got to run around and get all the attention, sort of like it is now in the NFL, except the linemen are knocking themselves silly.

  • Top 20 Passers, Only Otto Graham of the Cleveland Browns Played in the AAFC
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 16, No. 2 (1994) PRO FOOTBALL HALL OF FAME TOP TWENTY RANKINGS HALL OF FAME TOP TWENTY PASSERS CANTON, OHIO – San Francisco’s Steve Young challenged former 49ers teammate Joe Montana for the career forward passing leadership in 1993. However, Montana, now with the Kansas City Chiefs, did not relinquish the number one spot which he has held in the Pro Football Hall of Fame’s Top Twenty passing display since midway through the 1988 season. The Top Twenty display ranks the lifetime leaders in rushing, passing, receiving and scoring statistics and is updated weekly throughout each NFL season. The Top Twenty rankings include statistics from the All- America Football Conference (1946-49), as well as the American and National Football Leagues. Among the Top 20 passers, only Otto Graham of the Cleveland Browns played in the AAFC. With his AAFC numbers, Graham ranks No. 4 with an 86.6 rating. With his NFL-only statistics, he ranks out of the Top Twenty with a 78.1 point score. Montana, a 15-season NFL veteran, holds a slim one-tenth of a point lead with a 93.1 career rating. In 1993, Young led the league with a passer rating of over 100 for an NFL-record third consecutive season and now owns a 93.0 career passing score. Although a torn Achilles tendon suffered in Week 6 ended the 1993 season for Dan Marino of the Miami Dolphins, he lost no ground among the Top all-time quarterbacks and is still ranked No. 3 with an 88.1 ratings.

  • Leadership Is a Choice
    The 1983 NFL draft is referred to as “the year of the quarterback” and is considered one of the strongest drafts in NFL history. The Denver Broncos had thirteen rookies make their team that year including me and their choice at quarterback Gary Kubiak. Gary was a ninth round pick out of Texas A&M but the Broncos expected him to challenge Mark Herman for the backup role and eventually replace Steve Deberg as the starter. Gary had been a three sport high school star in Texas and had put together an outstanding football career as an Aggie. Athletic and smart Kubiak was going to be the Bronco’s future quarterback. Kubiak came to Denver in June with the rest of us rookies to work out at the team facility, get to know his future teammates, and prepare for training camp. In July the Bronco’s brought rookies and a few nonstarter veterans to rookie camp. This was the week before the veterans joined them in Greeley and reported to training camp. Gary was a star at rookie camp with his accurate passes and his quick mastery of Dan Reeves offensive system. Then to Gary’s’ surprise the Bronco’s pulled off one of the NFLs biggest steals in history. They traded quarterback Mark Herrman and their 1983 first round pick Chris Hinton to the Baltimore Colts for the first pick of the 1983 draft, future Hall of Famer John Elway. To Gary’s credit he competed with John instead of pouting. When it became clear that John would be the Bronco’s franchise quarterback Gary realized that he could still be a leader on our team.
