Bert Jones could never be a starter today

All you need to read is this.
“ In 1990, Jones participated in the first NFL Quarterback Challenge. He finished first in the retiree category and third in the regular competition (The regular competition taking the top three finishers from the alumni competition and adding them to the regular field of current quarterbacks). Given his strong performance, Bobby Beathard, then the general manager of the Chargers, wanted Jones to come out of retirement,[13] but Jones was 38 at the time and chose not to try a comeback.

Longtime scout Ernie Accorsi is quoted as saying that if Bert Jones had played under different circumstances, he probably would have been the greatest player ever. John Riggins has been quoted as saying Jones was the toughest competitor he has ever witnessed.[14] On the eve of Super Bowl XLII, New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick, in discussing his choices for the greatest quarterbacks of all time, described Jones as the best "pure passer" he had ever seen.[15]”

THE THIRD BEST QB AT A COMPETITION IN 1990. Lololololol.

I GUESS HIM THROWING IT ENd to END IN TIGER STADIUM DIDNT HAPEN OR HOW HE COULD THROW FURTHER THAN RUSSEL BECAUSE HE WAS BORN BEFORE 1970. HILARIOUS
