Edd Hargett

His 1971 Topps card: "Possessed with the ability to come off the bench and ignite his offense, Edd is a sound quarterback with good actions and a strong arm which is particularly effective at short range. Edd doesn't scramble often, but he won't force a pass into a covered area when defense is blitzing. Edd has a near-A average."

Here's his very cool 1971 Topps "Pro Action" card.

Says Wikipedia: "Edward Eugene Hargett (born June 26, 1947 in Marietta, Texas) is a former American football quarterback for Texas A&M University who went on to play professionally for the NFL's New Orleans Saints and Houston Oilers. He later played for the Shreveport Steamer of the World Football League. ... He still holds the all-time record for most total yards in one game (418 against SMU in 1968). ... Hargett was an honor student in electrical engineering at Texas A&M and later served as the manager of the Houston County Electric Co-op in Crockett, Texas. In 1985, Hargett ran unsuccessfully as a Republican in a special election for the United States House of Representatives ..."

Hargett was the quarterback when Gene Stallings coached Texas A&M to a 35-10 Cotton Bowl victory over Alabama and his former boss, Paul "Bear Bryant, on Jan. 1, 1968. Sports Illustrated's Dan Jenkins hadn't thought much of the Aggies' chances.

In a late 1969 game, the rookie whom the Saints had selected in the 16th round of the draft subbed for Billy Kilmer and nearly led New Orleans to a come-from-behind win over Vince Lombardi's Washington Redskins. Two years later, Hargett would be splitting Saints quarterback starts with rookie Archie Manning, Lombardi would be dead, and Kilmer would be quarterbacking Washington.
