Steve Bartkowski

Right.

That'd be Steve Bartkowski, who's not here.

But a great, actually a really good golfer.

Indeed.

I, I'm not really a huge fan, but I actually, um, you know, when I watched that game the other day, it kind of reminded me of a McNair game, like year two, you know, like 120 yards passing.

And I'm not comparing him to McNair, because at least Steve had a team around him and could run.

But McNair was that underwhelming a couple of points in his career, so to kind of give the kid a break.

I think the second point I'd like to make is, um, I'd like to s- I would like, at some point I'd like to see him sit him a game or two, because at the end of the year, whether he started 32 games over a two-year period or 34 is not gonna be the point, but I do think he could use a minute on the sideline if he, if he doesn't improve dramatically.

Even like a Tim Couch, you know, he got f- the five years with the Browns before it was over.

David Carr is, you know, with 76 sacks, he, he got the full five years, you know? Um, so in the modern era, I mean, if, if you're cutting it off at, you know...

I'm not gonna go back to, like, Steve Bartkowski in 1975 to Atlanta.

That's a little bit di- but if you start with, like, Elway, Testaverde, Aikman, there's nothing that would come close to this other than JaMarcus Russell if, if indeed Cam is done or put into a situation, um, you know, l- like a competition.

Great splits, right? It was a sure thing.

Steve Bartkowski.

They didn't go to the Super Bowl that year.

They didn't get to the NFC Championship game.

[upbeat music] Yeah, come on! [upbeat music]

Welcome to the Yeah Come On Show with Southside Steve.

Yeah, come on.

I lost my eyesight last night and I can't see much.

That's my next little thing.

We'll plan that, and I will film me and you so the whole time you're watching-

You can see Steve's point of view while doing the Yeah Come On Show

... and when you switch the camera to me you can still see our screen over there and see me on camera.

he opens them up and then he just starts pulling stuff out and starts saying it like, like if Cal sent him one.

"Oh, the California Golden Bears, the home of Pappy Waldorf and Joe Kapp." And he'll just start throwing, "DeSean Jackson, Steve Bartkowski.

Man, Strawberry Canyon on..." He just starts Wikipedia-

He just goes

All righty, 21 minutes past the hour here on this Monday with Longshore and McKnight.

Steve Bartkowski, Barry, I'm told on the VIP River Region Straw Chat line, was on the Cal team that Alabama beat 66 to 3.

That game, if my memory serves me correct, was played at night at Legion Field.

Earlier that afternoon, Auburn played, I believe, Oregon State at Legion Field.

It is factually correct.

Here's, here's the deal though.

Steve Bartkowski's 73 years old now.

Yeah.

A tough day on quarterbacks.

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Steve Bartkowski suffered a knee injury in that game against the New Orleans Saints and left before halftime.

A second-year starter from California, Bartkowski went down on a play in which the Saints were penalized for face-masking.

The quarterback completed 4 of 7 for 49 yards before leaving the game, and was replaced by third-year backup Tim McQuickland with the Falcons trailing 20 to nothing at the half.

The only problem is Jones slammed Bradshaw's head into the ground while taking him down.

A Steelers club spokesman says first reports had Bradshaw suffering a back injury.

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Steve Bartkowski suffered a knee injury in the game against New Orleans.

He left the field before halftime.

Rest in peace, Jeff.

Steve Bartkowski.

Hey, let me ask a serious question.

Uh, the Michael Penix has the key.

And I'm talking like I'm a true Atlanta sports fan because I grew up a Falcons fan in the 80s.

Like, you don't remember Steve Bartkowski or William Andrews.

We were horrible.

But there we were, Atlanta-Fulton County Stadium.
