Mike Taliaferro( pronounced Toliver, never understood that) was the starting QB and Fred Custardo played about 25% of the snaps. As a side note, Custardo died at a very young age, from a fall from a third-story apartment balcony while attempting to jump from his neighbor's balcony to his own one snowy night. An additional side note on Custardo--he got his bell rung one game at home. As he was lying on the ground face down, motionless, his mother ran onto the field and knelt next to him. A photographer captured that scene and the photo appeared in just about every newspaper in the US.
Just the musings of a geezer
