    MTM got it with henderson. Orosco had 587, which puts him at six.

    This quarterback in the 1950s and 1960s played behind four Hall of Famers, missed two seasons due to military service; spent another year in the CFL and sat out for a season in the middle of his career to work as an assistant coach at Baylor. Who was he?

    Weren't the Gold Gloves just for 'OF' until recently? If so, is the answer three CFers?

    Gonna say Earl Morrall. I know he backed up Unitas, Griese and Tarkenton. Not sure who the fourth is, but I know he played for a bunch of teams.

    Not Earl, as his career wasn’t interrupted multiple times.

    Maybe Bratkowski?

    Nope, not Zeke.

    As a further hint, he wasn’t known by his actual first name, which was Francis.

    Y.A. Tittle was the fourth.

    I have no idea the answer to Baron’s question.

    So … another hint. Notice I said that he played behind four Hall of Famers. That doesn’t mean all four were Hall of Fame quarterbacks …
