HA! No. If you just all of a sudden dropped an athlete from today to the 50's and 60's they probably wouldn't last a whole game.

Why?

ETA: Go ahead and look at the height and weight of the 1950 NFL pro bowlers.

Todays 6'6" 310 LT would be blocking a 5'10" 225 lb DE.

ETA: Pete Pihos was the starting DE in the 1950 pro bowl. He was 6'1" 210 lbs. He would injure the shite out of a modern day LT

If by wouldn't last a game you mean that they'd dominate so badly that they became bored and quit, then I agree 100%.


If you mean that today's players who are all bigger, stronger, and faster than just about everyone from the 50/60's, but the game would be too "physical" for them and they wouldn't be "tough" enough for it, then I'd like to lol at you.
