[QUOTE="Skeptic, post: 315366, member: 2175"] No doubt eras in football can't be easily compared as say, baseball might be. But anybody who puts Lothridge anywhere but No. 1 is smoking something he ought not be on. The guy was 21-10 or so in an era when 10 game seasons were the norm vs. 12 today, and defense actually was often the major component of the game plan; was an outstanding runner, very good passer (not NFL cannon type, but deadly accurate), played defense, punted and -- I believe, anyway -- placekicked, and was the Heisman runnerup to a fellow named Staubach his senior year. Anybody else on that list come even close to those accomplishments? Anybody even mentioned, save for Nesbitt before he broke his arm, a Heisman nominee even briefly? I didn't see him but in talking to a couple of people who did, they thought he would be an ideal Johnson QB and in today's game would have blown he doors off offensive records. But, that is what ESPN does for you. [/QUOTE]
