Waterfield should not be in the 40's if Baugh isn't in the 30's. Baugh stepped off the plane in 37 and got Washington a title. Waterfield got his 45 title because Sammy threw a pass from the end zone which hit the goal post when the posts were on the goal line and was called a safety. The Rams won by that margin. Weak, Weak Weak. Sammy was the greatest football player of all time.
