Quarterbacks in the Hall of Fame, such as Fran Tarkenton, Roger Staubach, Archie Manning and Jim Kelly, used to call the plays. Why don't quarterbacks do it anymore?
Coming into the season, many predicted doom and gloom for the Rams, a fun group that proceeded to win their opener and give the powerful 49ers all they could handle before losing, 30-23.That started to change in the late 1970s with the advent of the nickel back, when defenses would replace a linebacker in certain situations with a fifth defensive back. After that, more tinkering.
That’s not to suggest modern quarterbacks don’t have a thorough grasp of defenses, or can’t independently draw from an ever-expanding universe of plays. In certain situations, many are asked to do so. Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow was calling the shots in a playoff game against the Titans two seasons ago.
