One word would describe Clifford Rove if he played in another era. The word isn't trailblazer, gunslinger, or GOAT. The word that would best describe Clifford Rove if he played in another era is "dead". You see, Clifford Rove got sacked a lot of times last year. So many times in fact, that he went through concussion protocol twice. But this is in the safest era of NSFL history, now imagine Clifford with a leather helmet and getting sacked that many times. The guy would not be alive to throw the ball, blunt force trauma would be the death of him. Many people are saying that they see players being able to revolutionize the game if they went back in time, and Rove is no different. Rove would be the prime example of why protective equipment for both the head and the body when he is carted off the field in a body bag. So while some may say they would revolutionize the passing game, or tear up the league, or win 15 consecutive MVP awards, the story would probably be a little different for our good friend Mr. Rove. And trust me, he's thankful every day that he is playing today, not in yesteryear. We can all wonder what may have been, but Rove knows it is a blessing he doesn't have to.
