People can go on and on about the “old timers” like Baugh and Graham making it over Brees and Rodgers. The fact is, it doesn’t matter if the game was “easier” back then. These guys dominated their own era, which is something Brees and Rodgers didn’t do. You can only dominate in your own time period. I’m sure they would do just fine if you teleported them here with modern medicine. But there’s no hypotheticals in sports (as much as Brady haters love to pretend that they exist). So you have to judge the players on their accomplishments and domination in their own era. Discrediting the old guys in football is like trying to discredit Ruth, Cobb, Wagner in baseball, and Russell in basketball
