It sounds like you're following the NFL record book as far as stats included.I'll let someone try and guess #3. I had barely heard of him.

That is correct. I figured that would be the most prudent record book to rely upon, considering how its 'official'. To me, there is nothing worse on this forum than dealing with a hardcore PFRA "Truther" who 'argues' that the Minnesota Vikings won the 1969 NFL title, or who would argue that Jim Kelly was the third rookie QB to throw 20+ TD passes.

OK, I'll remember to check with you next time ...

George Ratterman also threw 20+ TD's for the AAFC's Bills in his first year out of Notre Dame.

Uh . . . but they DID win the 1969 NFL title. It's kind of an indisputable fact.
