Listen "The Man behind "The Man""
Episode Synopsis
Every NFL team from time to time has to deal with the starting quarterback going down to injury or the coach is faced with replacing the high-priced starting quarterback with the most popular player in town -- the Back-up. In this episode we will highlight some of the most famous quarterbacks to come off the bench and became stars in their own right. Some for one game, others for a season and still a few became Super Bowl heroes. Later in the show, in a double "Shout out" we will highlight one of the most famous and by some the greatest sports documentary ever created. One of the players highlighted in this long and detailed series, passed away earlier this week. Also in this episode, since this Week 4 in the NFL season, we feature five games that are on the schedule that are rematches of famous and exciting games from years past. A couple were epic playoff games, while one ended the longest losing streak in NFL History. To contact the show you could email us here at [email protected] or also on Twitter @HistoricallySp2.
