	'64 trade brought Sonny days for Redskins - The Washington Times: Sports (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)
		True, Jurgensen never played regularly for a winner in Washington; by the time George Allen arrived to resurrect the long-dormant franchise in 1971, Sonny was 37, injury prone and reduced to a role as Billy Kilmer's backup.
		Sonny missed five games and parts of three others in 1963 with shoulder and wrist injuries, and he might have suspected that Philly's famously fickle fans were clearing their throats for '64.
		Oddly, Jurgensen passed for 106 fewer yards than Snead had the previous season, although his completion percentage was higher (55 to 49) and TD/interception ratio much better (24/13 to 13/27).
