BDFL Throwback Week 2016

The BDFL honors the WLAF/NFL Europe in Week #6

TITLETOWN - With 17 total clubs competing from 1991 to 2007, the World League of American Football (WLAF)/NFL Europe is a natural fit for the BDFL's annual Throwback Week tradition. This progressive experiment, backed by the NFL, served a vital role in pro football during this era of enlightenment. The current lack of quality quarterbacking and overall QB depth in the NFL today can be traced directly to the end of this developmental league in 2007. Former Super Bowl starting QBs; Kurt Warner, Brad Johnson and Jake Delhomme all played in the league. Other NFL greats; James Harrison, William Perry, Jon Kitna, Adam Vinatieri and David Akers logged time in the league.
