Talk about analytics...I love this article...π Maybe our glasses are just a bit rosy, but there's no denying Bart always came up big when it mattered..

I don't understand why NFL Network never did "A Football Life" featuring Bart Starr. At least I've never seen one. That would be one great story!!
I agree.
Starr also did something that even Rodgers doesn't do: call his own plays. (Although you could argue that Rodgers did for the last couple of the MM years.) Starr didn't have the luxury of someone else making the decisions on what plays to run; he had to do that as well as play superb QB for one of the great taskmasters. Starr had to not only decide which play to run, but he had to be the coach on the field and handle all those personalities as well. When you think of adding on all those responsibilities to playing QB and winning that many championships for that coach... wow. We won't ever see that again.
