The most dominate player in NFL history?
Don Hutson
His numbers were on a whole other level than what WR's were doing in his era.
In 1936 he had 8 TD's, then next four receivers combined....2.
It was always like that then in 1942 he has 74 receptions for (11 games) and 1, 211 yards the first 1000 yard season in NFL history and he scored 17 TD's, the guy in second....27 catchs, 259 yards and the next four had 9 TD's combined.
The guy was like some Alien who didn't belong there.
He was a 9.8 sprinter back when the WR was a 9.4 and slow white guys played cornerback.
He also had 30 INT's, a nine time pro bowler and he also kicked. Led the NFL in INT's one season.
There is no other player who dominated their position in their era like Don Hutson did in his.
Not sure this is true....
He also played baseball while at Alabama. Story goes.....there was a baseball game and a track meet going on at the same time right there on campus. So he walks over to the track from the diamond changes his shoes and wins the 100 yard dash wearing a baseball uniform.
Hmmmm?
STOP IT, STOP IT~~~~~~~
I can't believe by now you simple little s haven't figure it out.
, Mason the best looking kid there.
Dude, keep it coming, we can talk football anytime.
Where is my harmonica dance routine?
In those 100 years we saw a lot of firsts, who can tell me the first HBCU WR to have a 1000 yard receiving season? Let me guess, no clue.
Russell Wilson has a couple firsts.
First 100 passer rating in first two seasons
First 4000/30/500 season in history (came within 18 yards of doing ot again the following season}
Most 4th quarter TD passes in history for a season.
What does that have to do with bar girls who might have lied about their age, yep......nothing.
Dude, you really this far gone?
I guess all that is suppose to ......what? Love all this attention, the impact made really is amazing.
Jimmy Brown had to be seen to be believed. Imagine defenses stacked to stop this guy and he STILL averaged over 5 yards a carry and 100 yards a game for his career. He has no equal when it comes to ball carriers.
All that work over....me....gotta love it.
Can't believe all this attention, it really is a....wow~~~
How cool would this have been?
Gruden....I get you can't run with those feet but why aren't you out here?
AB....this helmet thing, I.....

Why Cardinals preferred John David Crow over Jim Brown
July 18, 2019 by retrosimba
The NFL’s St. Louis Cardinals may have rejected a chance to acquire running back Jim Brown.
On Feb. 4, 1961, the St. Louis Globe-Democrat reported the Cleveland Browns twice offered to trade Brown to the Cardinals for running back John David Crow, but were turned down.
The Cardinals confirmed the story and the Browns denied it.
In retrospect, the Cardinals should have done the deal if given the chance, but at the time the decision wasn’t so obvious.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Crow a better receiver and while a good runner he was no Jim Brown. He ended up on my Niners at TE. He was the first Card ti have a 1000 yard season.

Way back in the day there was a magazine article by the guy who backed Jim Brown up at FB, yes he had a backup, who was this guy?
Translation:
please be doxxed with me
Stupid, every picture we take ends up on Facebook, I know this. I'm not concerned about that at all. And if I can get somebody to post a video**** of me going out for a pass on my 70th Bday it will be here.
Where is that harmonica/dance video?
Now lets see a picture of you, come on coward.
**** I have no clue how that is done.
Intelligence > Speed
So why do we see very few Ivy Leagurers in the NFL?
So why do we see very few Blacks in law, medicine, IT etc?
What does any of that have to do with why whites are so inferior to blacks when it comes to quicks and speed? Dude. football forum here, ok?
That first NFL season in 1920 looked like this.
Akron Pros...8 wins and 3 ties. yep....the first undefeated team.
Decatur Staleys....10-1-2
Buffalo All Americans....9-1-1
Chicago Cardinals....6-2-2
Rock Island Independants....6-2-2 also
Dayton Triangles....5-2-2
Rochester Jeffersons...6-3-2
Canton Bulldogs....7-4-2
Detroit Heralds....2-3-2
Cleveland Tigers...2-4-2
Chicago Tigers....2-5-1
Hammond Pros...2-5-0
Columbus Panhandles...2-6-2
Muncie Flyers...0-1-0
In 1921 the Muncie Flyers went....0-2-0
And we saw the Tanawanda Kardex, who went....0-1-0 never to be heard of again.
The thing is the game was never met to be played by the kind of athletes we see today. A big man in 1920 wouldn't be a big man today and there were no 220 pounders with 4.4 jets. We have got too big and too strong and too fast for the game.
There was a Cowboys team before Dallas (who came real close to being called the Rangers) this was in 1925 and the Kansas City Cowboys who went 2-5-1, in 26 they were 8-3 and that was it.
What a bummer this guy wasn't allowed to play NFL football.
Ben Stevenson
Ben “Big Ben” Stevenson spent his first years at Tuskegee University as a prep-schooler, which at the time allowed him to play eight seasons in all for the Golden Tigers, from 1923 to 1930. During that span, the team amazingly suffered only two defeats. Stevenson combined speed (9.8 100-yard dash), strength and durability. Scoring on a combination of long runs and drop kicks, he also played defensive back, earning a reputation as one of the top pass thieves in the conference. Stevenson was named to seven consecutive Black College All-America teams, numerous Negro all-time All-America teams and was voted as the game's greatest all-around player.
Curious about just what conference was Tuskegee in back then, it wasn't the SWAC or MEAC. The school also had Mozelle Ellerrbe the first great HBCU sprinter, he showed up around 1937ish.

I told you why. Whites evolved and left the plantation. Blacks are still suckers knee deep in it IE how many end up bankrupt
