    I’m a huge Namath fan. My favorite athlete by far. He came into tremendous fame when I was 10. That was 1970. Saw him play many times in those days. My friend had season passes. He became most important man in football for the merger.

  • @joeleicht5764

    When you look at Namath's career stats, it might seem like he has no business being in the Hall of Fame. But younger fans don't realize that if Tom Brady, Joe Montana, Dan Marino, Brett Favre and other legends played under the same rules that Namath did (which made the passing game much more difficult) they would not have been able to put up the numbers that they did.

      If Tom.Brady played under the rules in Namath's day, he wouldn't have lasted one season. As far as overall statistics, the 1978 rule changes so altered the passing game that you almost have to compare before 1978 to after.

    Many millennials who criticize Joe Namath have never watched one full game from the 1970s.
    Statistic #1 - Joe Namath retired as the NFL ALL-Time passing leader at 197.6 Yards Per Game.
    Statistic #2 - Went to 5 NFL Pro Bowls (would have been at least 8 without injuries)
    Statistic #3 - Twice led the AFL in passing
    Statistic #4 - Won an AFL MVP Award
    Statistic #5 - Won an AFL Championship
    Statistic #6 - Won Super Bowl III to literally create the NFL with the merger.
    His TD passes and interceptions are meaningless, because his coach usually ran the ball into the end zone, and he often threw long passes on third down to count as punts instead.
