College career

Bartkowski attended the University of California, Berkeley.[1] In 1972, he threw for 944 yards with four touchdowns and 13 interceptions. In 1973, he threw for 910 yards with four touchdowns and seven interceptions. As a senior with the Golden Bears in 1974, Bartkowski was a consensus All-American and led the nation in passing.[1] He threw for 2,580 yards, 12 touchdowns, and seven interceptions. He completed 182 passes out of 325 attempts.[2] In addition to playing football, Bartkowski was also an All-American baseball player at first base for the Bears.[1]

Professional career

Bartkowski was chosen with the first overall pick in the 1975 NFL draft by the Atlanta Falcons (after the Falcons acquired the pick in a trade with the Colts).[3] Bartkowski was the NFL Rookie of the Year as well as The Sporting News NFC Rookie of the Year in 1975. He was the first client of sports agent Leigh Steinberg.

Bartkowski is one of ten quarterbacks in NFL history who have achieved consecutive 30-touchdown passing seasons (1980 and 1981) at least one time in their career. Bartkowski was selected to the Pro Bowl after both the 1980 and 1981 seasons and was selected 2nd Team All-NFC following the 1980 campaign. Bartkowski led the NFL in passing in 1983 with a passer rating of 97.6.[4][5] Bartkowski set the record for consecutive games with at least three touchdown passes at home with five which he established over the 1980 and 1981 seasons. The record was held until the 2004 season when it was surpassed by Peyton Manning.

In 1984, Bartkowski started the Falcons' first 11 games, but was injured late in the season and replaced by Mike Moroski.[6][7] Bartkowski began 1985 as the starter, but an 0-5 start led to his benching and losing the job to David Archer. He was placed on the injured reserve list before the eighth game and then released in November.

On December 12, 1985 Bartkowski signed with the Washington Redskins on a two week contract. He was added to their roster as an emergency quarterback, due to the current starter, Jay Schroeder, playing with a fractured rib. Bartkowski served as the third string quarterback for Washington’s final two regular season games.

The Los Angeles Rams signed Bartkowski in the 1986 pre-season when holdover Dieter Brock suffered a season- (and career-) ending injury. Bartkowski started six of the Rams' first seven games and the team was 4-2 in those games, but Bartkowski was largely ineffective and lost the starting job to Steve Dils. The Rams would eventually turn the reins over to rookie Jim Everett. Bartkowski retired after the 1986 season.[8]

Bartkowski was inducted into the Georgia Sports Hall of Fame on May 19, 2007.[9]
