Biiiigggg Jimmy Hart fan! When I was a little kid (8 to be exact) I wrote Jim a letter about how big of fan I was and enclosed a Topps card I wanted him to sign. My Dad was worried a pro football player wouldn't give me the time of day.Originally posted by SECTION 11

What I remember most about Jim Hart was that Charley Johnson had suffered injuries, wasn't expected back etc. etc. and I'm wondering where we're going to find a decent QB without using a top draft pick.
Then along comes this baby faced kid from Southern Illinois (the Salukis) and the rest is history.
I suspect that Don Coryell, at least in part, had something to do with Jim Hart's development into a really good NFL quarterback.

I think the 60's with the Jim Hart teams were some of the most fun games I have ever watched. That is when they gained the name The Cardiac Cardinals. With Hart and that great core of wide receivers we could really make things happen. Jim was from Souther Illinois and came off the bench one day and never looked back. We had a great offensive line headed by Jaws Dan Dierdorf and a great field goal kicker in Jim Bakken. Sonny Randall, Stump Mitchell and I think John David Crow was palying with him. Larry Wilson was still playing as I remember. Never had such exciting teams since then.

Revisionist History! Dierdorff, Bakken yes. John David, Sonny Randle long retired. Stump yet to appear with Niel Lomax, Roy Green and O.J Anderson in the eighties under Jim Hannifan.
