Stephen John Pisarkiewicz (born November 10, 1953) is a former professional American football player who played quarterback. Pisarkiewicz played in the NFL, CFL, USFL and British leagues during his career.
Pisarkiewicz was recruited by Tennessee, but joined the Missouri Tigers and was considered the best passer at the school since Paul Christman and drew attention from NFL scouts. In 1975, Pisarkiewicz led the Big 8 in passing yards, and was second in passing touchdowns.
Pisarkiewicz was drafted 19th overall by the St. Louis Cardinals in the 1977 NFL draft, apparently at the insistence of owner Bill Bidwill. Expected to take over the starting job from the aging Jim Hart, he failed to impress head coach Bud Wilkinson and started just 4 games in his time in St. Louis.
After leaving St. Louis, Pisarkiewicz played in one game in 1980 for the Green Bay Packers.
In 1982, Pisarkiewicz was picked up by the Winnipeg Blue Bombers. However, his time there was limited and he soon moved back to the US.
Pisarkiewicz spent 1983 with the Philadelphia Stars but again found playing time limited. He was given two years probation in the same year after pleading guilty to an incident of indecent exposure in Clayton, Missouri.
