The 1920s featured several legendary names in the NFL. Guys like Red Grange, Curley Lambeau ,Jim Thorpe, George Halas and a host of others. But one name that if often overlooked is that of Paddy Driscoll. The first-ever All-Pro QB, Driscoll was one of the game's most dominant forces. Originally a member of the then "Chicago" Cardinals, Driscoll also played halfback, would line up on defense, and was also a terrific dropkicker. In fact, over the course of his career, not only did Driscoll pass for 18 touchdowns (according to the Pro Football Hall of Fame), he also rushed for 25, caught four touchdown passes, returned a punt for a touchdown, returned a fumble for touchdown and he kicked 63 extra points and added 51 field goals. On this edition of Sports' Forgotten Heroes, I take a look back at the Hall of Fame career of Driscoll with one of the foremost experts on the Cardinals - Joe Ziemba. We cover it all, from Driscoll's early days as star with Northwestern and the Great Lakes Naval team that won the Rose Bowl, to his days in the NFL with the Cardinals, his trade to their crosstown rivals, the Chicago Bears, his stint as a head coach, and his later years as an executive with the Bears as well.
