Despite coming from an era of complete offensive ineptitude, Archie held the single game yardage record for over 40 years until Manziel broke it.

Looking at the stats, it's easy to say he was garbage but you talk to any fan who watched football in that era and he's always one of the best players they've ever seen.

He was a remarkable athlete and a prototype of the elusive, speedy, hard running passer that every team in the SEC would give a left testicle to have running their offense. Particularly LSU.

I don't get the Archie hate. People here fault him for supporting his sons and advancing their careers? You wouldn't do the same for your sons?

Clean up your Dad' brains as a sophomore in college to keep your Ma and sister from having to see the gore of his suicide and man up a month later to attend classes, make the grades and excell in a tough football conference and get back with me about character and the like.
