ixcuincle Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 Rest in peace. Great quarterback. I remember once , we were all talking about the best all-around player in the NFL in ATN. There was almost universal agreement that Baugh was one of the best all-around players in the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JGordon_3 Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 ROTAN, Texas -- Sammy Baugh, who set numerous passing records with the Washington Redskins in an era when NFL teams were running most every down, died Wednesday night, his son said. Baugh, who was 94 and had numerous health issues, died at Fisher County Hospital, David Baugh said. He was the last surviving member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame's inaugural class. After starring at TCU, "Slingin' Sammy" Baugh played with the Redskins from 1937 to 1952. While he was noted for his passing, Baugh was one of the best all-around players of his day. One season he led the league in passing, defensive interceptions and punting. In one game, he threw four touchdown passes and intercepted four passes. http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=3776838 Sad day for the Skins.

Teller Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 I heard a few years ago that despite being the resident of a Texas nursing home, Slingin' Sammy wore a Redskins sweatshirt everyday. God bless you, 33. And watch out for that Taylor kid when you're playing ball up there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
