I think Terry Bradshaw even attended LSU for a bit, or maybe not. It is becoming more common place, as we know, for players to transfer these days. 3 of the 4 QBs in the CFP were transfers.

One of course won the Heisman (Kyler Murray) and starts for the Cards and the other started for a while (Kyle Allen) when Cam was hurt at the Panthers. They just re-signed Allen as his backup.

Those extra clues I gave should have turned the light bulb on for someone who has been around a While. Example....he got Jim McMahon who described himself as the "funky QB" on the Bears 1985 Super Bowl Shuffle video. And Lamonica's nickname was The Mad Bomber....ergo the Ted Kaczinski reference. 19 minutes ago, Browns149 said: Jim McMahon 18 minutes ago, Browns149 said: Daryl Lamonica Check and Check. So....fess up....did you look them up, or did the clues I gave ring the bell for you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
