My guess is none of the above, they didn't keep the stat back then.

I'm going to say Bill George (since I had never heard of him before) Hey- wait a minute, where sacks recorded as early as 1959? Merry Christmas Frank! .

If you are correct, what term was replaced by the sack?

When you can't record a sack, take a dump.

If you are correct, who led the NFL in dumps in 1959?
Same choices. And was there a quarterback who never took a dump in 1959?

If you are correct that the correct answer is among your choices, I am going with Nitschke because you are a Packer guy. Alternatively, knowing your penchant for trickery, all of the above, they tied.

I'll guess the Monster of the Midway, Bill George. I only vaguely remember watching him play but there are stories about his ability to easily toss linemen aside with his brute strength.

Since today is Lundi I will guess Lundy.

The art of this thread has been neglected.
Nitschke, a quarterback in high school, was a dumpee before he was a dumper. In my youth I kept records of this stat, before it was fashionable, but I inadvertently dumped those files. Deacon Jones, who didn't play in 1959 is generally considered the father of the dump, now sack. Retrospectively he is credited with 173 1/2 dumps (sacks), which was head and shoulders above his peers. He was a teammate of Lamar Lundy, who witnessed Deacon's earliest dumps. Sacks as an official stat are only about 35 years old.

Here"s my {?},Football yearles & football cards have sack stats in them 1980"s to early 1970"s & how far back does NFL Films go, to late 1960"s, how hard can it be to just go back on the film & look?At least those players could get the sacks they had?Robert.
