Knowing who it is after the fact its obviously him. But I had to cheat and look up all the 75s in history.

 

Is that a 2 bar facemask Joe T is wearing or maybe an illusion with the top of his jersey.

 

Interesting to see our punter was our placekicker that day. I saw pics of DJ practicing kicks in pregame and assume since it was a blowout in the last game Allen decided to let the guys have some fun.

I didn't realize he was drafted in '74. That was Theismann's rookie year and it looks like he came in the game late (in a route) to relieved Sonny.

Listening to John Keim podcast interview with Greg Cosell.   Cosell is curious how they implement the running game with Kingsbury offense.  Also he likes Daniels but he said

Maye has a stronger arm.  He said Daniels can stay in the pocket until and do his reads and he will leave the pocket when his blocking breaks down.  He avoided commenting on Kingsberry as an offensive minded coach.   He likes Dan Quinn who knows the defense.  He said Commanders do not have an explosive back right now.  He likes Brian Robinson.

We have grinder type running backs.  Keep score low so quarterback does not have to win it in late 4th quarter.  He likes the fact that Daniels is a poised and composed player.

Aaron Rodgers had a much stronger arm than Tom Brady....but which one had the better career and multiple superbowls?   Arm strength is waaaaay overrated.....

Terry deserves so much more than what he's had thus far in his career. Here's hoping we can turn it around and he gets to experience some consistent winning (newly uploaded career highlights):

It is and it isn’t.  
 

Every successful NFL QB has a baseline good NFL arm. 
 

Of you don’t (Like our buddy Hallock) you essentially can’t play in the league for very long. Or very successfully.  
 

Once you get over the bare minimum of having an NFL arm, great players can have “good” NFL arms.  Brady, Peyton, Brees, Montana, Young etc all had good NFL arms. 
 

Elway, Favre, Marino and Rodgers had bazookas.  
 

But there isn’t a good NFL QB with a weak arm.  Except Peyton for the last half of his final season, when he couldn’t throw a ball through a pane of glass.  And they still won the SB.  But that’s more the exception which proves the rule than anything.
