Throughout the history of the NFL, coaches have gone to great lengths to make sure they do everything they can to help their QBs prosper and shine.
In the early 70s, the Bears’ head coach Mike Ditka and his newly drafted mobile, left-handed QB, Bobby Douglass, performed the Chicago version of Neil Simon’s The Odd Couple, as they agreed to be roommates in Ditka’s posh downtown apartment.
In the early 80s, it was widely rumored that the Eagles’ head coach Dick Vermeil and his QB Ron Jaworski spent many a night breaking down tape into the wee hours of the morning and slept on couches at the team facility.
