To Me, Johnny Unitas Was and Is Johnny Football - kevin - 11-27-2015
How did this rookie just get the name Johnny Football handed to him before a single game, as fans bought up his jerseys.....The fans bought Tebow jerseys also....It could be the fans buying a rookie draft picks jersey is like the curse of being on the Madden Game box cover....Johnny Unitas was and still is Johnny Football, not this hack up in Cleveland in the revolving door of Browns quarterback changes.

thats just how propaganda and commercialism work. the nfl wants you to be attracted to names and imagery.

Well, he played games in college and got the nickname there. So unless we are going to start resetting nicknames as player move from level to level, there ya go.
