I wonder if anyone remembers Zeke Bratkowski or George Blanda.

They were both back-up quarterbacks plus Blanda did place kicking. The thing which amazed me about both of them was say if Bart Starr was injured, Zeke would come in off the bench and the Packers would not drop off a bit. Same for Blanda even when he was well up into his 40s.

I remember those guys.

I remember Blanda coming off the bench and winning a string of games for the Raiders back in 1970 when Blanda was in his 40's.

Don’t forget Don Strock and the 14-0 Miami Dolphins.
