Would things be different if Bubba Starling would have come?

[WestTexasHusker]

Thoughts?

 

[wcbsas]

Is he any different than TMart or 2AM?

 

[SierraRed]

Thoughts?

I don't think so. We went 9-4, 10-4, 9-4 in the three seasons he would have been here. Quarterback was never an issue during that run.

 

[Smoker]

Doubt it

 

[HuskerGene]

Maybe

We'd probably have flying cars by now. Thanks a lot, Bubba.

Nope. Just got warning signs not to eat the food wrapping now.

I blame him for not having transporters and now causing long lines at airports.

 

[TFrazier]

Thoughts?

He was a powerful runner with excellent speed…a man among boys.

However, passing was not his strength by any means. I saw him play in a state playoff game his senior and he missed the tight end running wide open in the middle of the field several times by overthrowing him.

It could have been just that game but he would have needed to enhance that aspect of his game.

 

[juju]

What about Carl Crawford while we are at it?

 

[RedStones]

Yes. Maybe no.

Try again later.

 

[BubbaGene]

I think maybe for Bubba, yes.

 

[ReasonablyRed]

We'd probably have flying cars by now. Thanks a lot, Bubba.

Yep!
If Carl Crawford would of signed, Omaha would already have a trolly.
But I'd be a sad Ray's fan.

 

[RedRum]

Bubba would have been poorer without the MLB contract.

The 1940 NFL championship game was between the Bears and the Redskins. Washington had defeated Chicago 7-3 during the regular season.

The Bears controlled the game right from the start, using the T formation as their primary offensive strategy. On their second play from scrimmage, running back Bill Osmanski ran 68 yards for a touchdown. Washington then marched to the Chicago 26-yard line on their ensuing drive, but wide receiver Charlie Malone dropped a sure touchdown pass in the end zone that would have tied the game. The field goal attempt on 4th down was missed as well.

The Bears won, 73-0.

So many footballs were kicked into the stands after touchdowns that officials asked [Bear's head coach George] Halas to run or pass for the point after touchdown on the last two touchdowns.

This game also marked the last time that an NFL player (Bears end Dick Plasman) played without a helmet.

Redskins quarterback Sammy Baugh was interviewed after the game, and a sportswriter asked him whether the game would have been different had Malone not dropped the tying touchdown pass. Baugh reportedly quipped, "Sure. The final score would have been 73–7."

So, no, Bubba Starling at Nebraska wouldn't have made even a hill of beans difference.
