it's a odd story, after the first alternate got hurt...they coul not get anyone to go, kept going down the list, no one woul accept, Kilmer, Gabrei, James Harris was hurt... so it finally came to Boryla. There was one report of Archie Manning plaing who was healthy after mising entire season. Game was in NO so he was local but suppose they thought better ... go with someone who actually played
Manning missed all of the 1976 season. He played in 1975, all but the last game. He and the Saints were terrible, but he played.

Did they ask Steve Bartkowski? He was better than Boryla. There weren't a lot of good NFC QBs.
