"Johnny Unitas would clean house in this era of football!" No he wouldn't. It was a different time, and I'm not talking about the rules of football. I'm talking about the knowledge of sports training. Knowledge of the game. The lifelong preparation for this career. God, ****ing Len Dawson was a smoker. Pretty sure Johnny did the same.
Elway wasn't the trained athlete that today's QBs are. He was fast and had an arm, but he wouldn't be better in this era just because he did it back then.
