Have read about him, been to his hometown in Pennsylvania (Altoona).

Yeah I used to go to Altoona all the time picking up from the steel mill there. Last time I was there it looked like a ghost town after the mill quit producing steel. They were just shipping the steel out and emptying out the warehouses.

Sorry to hear that. I had been there 8 years ago, when I went to Puncxutawney to watch the ground hog day festive.. I visited Altoona as well and watched a movie and had dinner there. Even in night time, town was alright, very busy and looked like a city in the middle of forests. I accidentally let the driver window open all the while I was watching Cinema, but nothing happened to the car and its contents. I really liked the surroundings, generally that part of PA seemed still very remote. Can't imagine that place getting some businesses closed.

I played offense and went to 8 pro bowls. I then went on to be the head coach for the team I played on.  I was coach of the year one time. 

Who am I? 

 Got it, Art Shell

Both my friend, a Hall of Fame RB and I, a future Hall of Fame QB, are from Texas. We played together in a few Texas high school All-Star games. We were Heisman Trophy finalists together. We were then drafted by the same team in NFL Draft. We both shared NFL Man of the Year award one year. 

 

However, I'm much known for being the long time starter for another team than the one who drafted me.

I thought this was Eli but he isn't from Texas and he shared the Man of the Year Award with a WR. 

 

It sounds a lot like Drew Brees. The RB sounds like Ladainian Tomlinson who was from TCU. They were both drafted by the Chargers. Brees is a surefire HoFer who is known as the QB of the Saints. I don't remember his winning the Man of the Year Award. I have to look that up. 

 

Anyway, let's say Drew Brees.

You're correct on both accounts. They shared Man of the Year award in '06.

I did not start following football until the early 90s. This guy was drafted in the 80s and only played 8 years. I can't think of anyone. I will think some more. 

 

Is he well-known?

very well known pay very close attention to my clues I left a hidden big one in there

Sammy Baugh 

:thmup: Yeah it was an easy one but I thought he deserved a mention. 

He still holds the record for punts with a 51.4 average. 

He also had a game where he threw 4TDs and had 4 interceptions in one game.
