He threw for something like 8 td passes. He was often his teams 3rd string QB and even played an entire half at QB. He also punted the ball on several occasions. But my favorite was HOW he ran the ball. He didn't run out of bounds and dished punishment out to defenders. He actually sought out contact. Meanest guy on the field was it's nicest off of it constantly working with children in need. Great man.
