Comes down to the lines, and the worst team in the league wins there.

Yes, the operative word is "could". The nfl rookies, known as the college all stars, defeated the NFL champion a few times in the old College All Star Game, the most recent being in 1963. I believe the nfl rookies could, on occasion, beat the worst nfl team.

No. Line development would suck. Hell, if its a one game thing and they aren't given a full off season- I doubt a pro bowl team could beat an average NFL team-- the line communication is a hugely underrated part of football- knowing which way the guy beside you is going on a twist, who picks up which blitzer etc.

some years. and your all stars have a year of NFL under their belts.

once upon a time, the college all stars would play the defending NFL champ before the season.
an NFL rookie all star team led by all world QB Otto Graham won.
He won titles in pro basketball and pro football.

see below from his wiki.

quote:

Took the Browns to league championship games every year between 1946 and 1955, winning seven of them. With Graham at quarterback, the Browns posted a record of 114 wins, 20 losses and four ties, including a 9–3 win–loss record in the playoffs. While most of Graham's statistical records have been surpassed in the modern era, he still holds the NFL record for career average yards gained per pass attempt, with 8.98. He also holds the record for the highest career winning percentage for an NFL starting quarterback, at 0.814. Long-time New York Yankees owner George Steinbrenner, a friend of Graham's, once called him "as great of a quarterback as there ever was."[1] He is also known for being one of only two people (the other being Gene Conley—Milwaukee Braves in the 1957 World Series and three Boston Celtics championships from 1959–61) to win championships in two of the four major American sports—1946 NBL (became NBA) and AAFC Championship, plus 3 more AAFC and 3 NFL championships.
