did u read the part where he said "no particular order"
Romo above Warner? Kelly? Bradshaw? That's some refined homerism right there
did u read the part where he said "no particular order"
i dont think testaverde belongs on that list
I'm pretty sure I'm not the only person that just skims everything Avante says
that excuse doesn't fly when u clearly read the list and noted the ordering
Yes. It does.
Then you'd be wrong.
Testerverde is nimber ten all time in td passes and number nine in yards. He's ahead of Montana in both.
I don't blame you/them, I do doubt most here have any clue what I'm talking about.
Stuff like just who was that QB that once traded became a stud receiver? What QB is still considered the greatest punter ever? What college QB was turned into an all pro defensive back in the NFL?
he played for a very long time. he was never all that great
sammy baugh isnt the greatest punter ever. that honor belongs to shane lechler.
"Great"....nope! Top 25, yep!
Wrong!
Baugh kicked in the elements, and on grass fields. He had more long kicks than Lechler and his career average of 45 yards actually superior to Lechlers 47 because of his era.
Baugh had more seasons where he averaged over 50 yards a kick than Lechler, his 85 longest kick superior to Lechlers 80.
Put Baugh in a dome, kicking without wind, wow~~~
what the fields do you think lechler kicked from?
Now think just a little bit ok stupid? How many domes has he kicked in? How many grass fields are left in the NFL?
Dummy, Google Baughs punting stats vs Lechlers, now tell me what you see?
Educate yourself son.
It's all about era, ok? For Baugh to do what he did way back then, yep, number one!

I would go with Big Ben and Rivers both over Brees
Until the last couple of years, there was literally never a time where rivers was considered better than brees. Brees was in the elite category while rivers was always in the "on the cusp of being elite" category
None of the afc west plays in a dome, so the number of games he's kicked in a dome are pretty negligible. He could kick farther and higher than Baugh could.
While the game has evolved, punting is punting. Offenses have changed. Defensive rules have changed. But punting isn't really an aspect that changes with era. It's like talking about free throw shooting for basketball
Is there really a discussion going on about one punter being better than another
Totally wrong, Baugh had an 85 yarder as his longest, Leachler an 80.
If you look at their seasonal break downs you'll see far more 75 or longer punts from Baugh, go ahead check it out. He averaged over 50 yards more seasons also.
Dude, you are totally/100%/completely wrong on this one, trust me! Do some research like I do, ok little man?
Punts that exceed 65-70 yards are basically always results of long bounces. Lechlers 80 yard was a punt from his own 20 that became a touchback. It came against the Bears, and it's on YouTube. That punt with the bounce could have gone for 90+. Had he punted from the 10 instead of the 20, it would have been 90.
Sheesh~~~~~~
Why are you so damn lazy? All you have to is take ...5 minutes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!....to Google these guys. You will find a site NFL STATS, that totally breaks down their careers. It's all right there staring at ya, Baugh had more long punts, he averaged over 50 yards in a season more times, ok?
And....he never played in a dome or on fake grass.
Rookies!!!
Why would fake grass help how far your punt travels in the air
Shane Lechler > Ray Guy > Sammie Baugh
As you tiotally ignore..."hey man, check the stats"...AGAIN!!!!!!!
Little man, GOOGLE THE FACTS....ok?
Stupid, how many punts roll in a season? Now think, for Baugh to do what he did in that era, is totally amazing, far superior to what these guys do today. You really don't get that?
Ok man, as usual you're too dumb to get this. Done with ya on this.
Why was it harder to kick a football in that era?
I'm starting to appreciate him more this season with him as my fantasy QB.
