"He played college football when the president answered to initials and pro football rosters were composed of 23 players. George Allen, a Pro Football Hall of Fame coach, was among a number of experts who ranked him as the NFL's all-time No. 1 quarterback. Baugh did things no quarterback, or anyone else, will ever duplicate: leading the league in passing, punting and interceptions as a 60-minute man."
