Steve DeBerg straps a speaker to his back
Remember quarterback Steve DeBerg? He was with the 49ers for four seasons before the start of the Joe Montana era. The Pick Six Podcast recently flashed back to his final season with the team — 1980 — and a game where DeBerg had to have a speaker system strapped to his back so his offensive teammates could hear him.
This just might be the most interesting thing you watch today (h/t to Patrick Tulini).
