If I had to pick any running back in the history of the league it would be very hard for me to pass up on Earl Campbell. So right now I have two players on my team. John Elway and Earl Campbell.

Can’t fucking believe I forgot about him.
Can’t even argue with those, lol. Dez… I dont’ know. You think he will end up better than Moss or Rice?
But LT would not be my Mike backer. Outside backer without a doubt.
My Mike backer would be Butkus
I’m just not ready to put Gronk there yet he doesn’t have a long enough resume yet.

I think Moss was better than Rice. I can’t say he will be better than those two but I would take him and not look back. Irvin makes my team not only because of his play but his fire and passion and what he brought to the team. Aikman had his back through all that strippers and cocaines shit. Irvin was the heartbeat.
He will be great, but I don’t see him being better than moss or rice. Probably top 5 though
Moss was far more talented than rice. You can make the argument he was better, he made daunte culpepper a household name. Moss was weak in the mind, if he had Rice’s attitude he would be the GOAT. Facts being facts I take Jerry Rice.
Noone giving Terrell Owens love. To me he is the 3rd best receiver ever.
I will agree Irvin, not Smith or Aikman was the MVP of those Cowboys teams.

Dude at work just mentioned him. Yeah, he is hard to leave out.
How’d we go from one fucking player to a top 100 list with alternates?
One Player: Lawrence Taylor.
Hey where do you guys think Ray Rice will end up next season
Jason Witten…
Michael Irvin…

Not sure. Someone will pick him up though.
If I am creating a team of anyone in NFL history to win:
QB: Peyton Manning
RB1, 2: Walter Payton; Barry Sanders (really wanted to put Dickerson there)
WR 1,2: Jerry Rice, Randy Moss
TE: Tony Gonzalez (I went back and forth on this one with Tony, Ditka, and Gronk)
G’s: John Hannah, Larry Allen
T’s: Anthony Munoz, Jackie Slater (Lots of legit lineman and Joe Thomas will probably end up being in this conversation
C: Mike Webster (I consider this probably the most difficult pick on my list between him and Jim Otto)
DE 1,2: Reggie White, Bruce Smith
DT: Alan Page
OLB 1,2: Lawrence Taylor, Derrick Thomas
MLB: Ray Lewis, Mike Singletary (really considered Jack Lambert)
CB: Deion Sanders, Rod Woodson
SS: John Lynch (some better cases can be made but he is my favorite all time NFL player)
FS: Ronnie Lott
K: Adam Vinateri
P: Ray Guy
Ret: Devin Hester (because he is just that good)
Alan Page - played in 218 consecutive games without an absence (215 consecutive in the starting line-up), during which he recovered 22 fumbles, made 148½ sacks (Vikings-108½,[3] Bears-40), and scored three touchdowns (two on fumble recoveries and one on an interception return). He also had three safeties, the second most in NFL history. He set a career high with 18 sacks in 1976 and is unofficially credited with five other seasons of 10 sacks or more.[4][5]
Page earned All-Pro honors six times and made second-team all-league three additional times. He was voted to nine consecutive Pro Bowls. He was voted All-Conference 11 times, in 1968 and 1969 as All-Western Conference and in 1970 through 1977 and 1980 as an All-National Football Conference.
In 1971, Page was named both the AP NFL Defensive Player of the Year (the first player to be named such) and the AP?s NFL Most Valuable Player. Page was the first defensive player to be named MVP since the award?s inception. Only one other defensive player has ever received the award. In addition, he was voted the NEA NFL Defensive Player of the Year in 1973.
