Name that Quarterback

**fgoodwin** · 04-06-2010, 12:05 PM

OK, without looking them up, how many QBs can you oldtimers out there identify in this picture?

I think I know eight of the fourteen; any guesses?

**Dave** · 04-06-2010, 01:00 PM

Don Meredith, #17 in front
Fran Tarkenton next him
Bart Starr #15 Green Bay
Johnny Unitas #19 next to him

**Rondo** · 04-06-2010, 01:10 PM

I think #9 is Sonny Jergensen, and #14 is Y.A. Tittle.

**fgoodwin** · 04-06-2010, 02:13 PM

OK, you guys named six of the eight that I had. Not bad.

Meredith looks like he's "Dancing with the Stars", or maybe that's his bowling release . . .

Without looking them up.....

Front Row: L-R
Earl Morrell, Fran Tarkington, Don Meredith, John Brodie, Sonny Jurgensen, Y.A. Tittle

Back Row: L-R
Frank Ryan, Bobby Layne, Charlie Johnson, either Billy Wade or Rudy Bukich, Bart Starr, Johnnie Unitas, Norm Snead, and Bill Munson(?)

HA! Thanks, but are they right? I'm confident on the entire front row....I've got them nailed. The back row is where it gets dicey with numbers 3, 4, and 8.

**Dave** · 04-06-2010, 02:48 PM

Well, better than I did!!

Very close.

The Detroit Lion is Jim Ninowski; the Cleveland Brown is Milt Plum; the StL Cardinal is Sam Etcheverry; Wade is correct; and the LA Ram is Zeke Bratkowski

Well done!

The Lion QB is Ninowski? Dangit! It sure looks like Earl Morrall....it's got to be the haircut, right? That's what I'm gonna blame it on, anyway!

But still....10 outta 14.....not too shabby!!
