Crazy...

Baugh still holds Redskins records for career touchdown passes (187) and completion percentage in a season (70.3). His 31 interceptions on defense are third on the team’s career list. He still owns the league mark for single-season punting average (51.4).

I love that NFL Films episode with a Baugh interview, swearing and kicking at dogs, chewing, and bitching about players' salaries today.

As a former highschool safety and quarterback I have alot of respect this guy. He obviously had a great mind for the game.

I think it was in that interview he said 'I'd love to be playing today....'
