My Mount Rushmore of NFL QB’s

The real G.O.A.T.s

ESPN, the number one sports network had it right all along. Entertainment and Sports Network.

Since we’re on the Entertainment side, allow me to unveil my Fab Four. The men who are old school, 24/7 ’cause they know nothing else. It’s in their DNA. These guys didn’t just bring it on Any Given Sunday. They lived it.

Forget Tom Brady, Peyton Manning, Joe Montana, and Johnny Unitas. Those guys have nothing on my guys. Three of my four have won the Super Bowl and are in the Hall-of-Fame.

Here they are:

Lenny Dawson, QB Kansas City Chiefs

Years before Patrick Mahomes, Chiefs Kingdom had their first offensive chief, Lenny Dawson.

Here is Lenny in the Chief’s locker room during halftime at Super Bowl I. No Gatorade and IV for this guy. Instead, Lenny enjoys a smoke and a bottle of suds. The Breakfast of Champions. The pro’s pro midpoint snack.

Down the hall, Vince Lombardi and his legendary Green Bay Packers chomping at the bit to get their paws on Dawson. Does Lenny look like a QB, much less a sucker or a perp headed for the lion’s den?
