The Top 100: NFL's Greatest Players (Full list page 7)

[18to87]

Ray Lewis comes in at 18.


Manning in the top 10.

 

[AusKnightRKO]

20 Favre
17 Barry Sanders ( how is he not in the top 10?)

 

[Ron Jeremy]

Brady is better then Manning, god the Manning wankfest is insane.

 

[Ron Jeremy]

Its a disgrace that Bruce Smith was as low as he is, the leading all time sack leader despite laying predominately in a 3-4 defense is absolutely amazing! as well as, Bruce imo was alot better against the run then White, f**k they hate the bills.

OJ, if it werent for his of field troubles would be top 10 without a doubt ( he rushed for 2000 yards in 14 games one of his seasons)

Thurman Thomas?

Jim Kelly?

Andre Reed?

I feel like im going to be sick, if we won atleast one of the bowls all of them apart from OJ would be top 30.

And oh so im not biased, Barry Sanders and Deion Sanders positions are a disgrace too, it is a pathetic list.

 

[Ron Jeremy]

Farve at number 20 lol, i'm surprised Vinny Testervede isn't up there too, or Mark Brunnell lol

 

[Ron Jeremy]

Dan Marino at 25 LOL LOL LOL LOL

 

[Ron Jeremy]

Bruce Matthews at 78? randy Moss at 60 something unf**king believable.

Bruce Matthews is quite possibly one of the greatest offensive linesman ever, didn't he make 10 or something probowls? he was a great player.

Moss, the most dynamic WR ever

 

[Tigers_are_Pro]

lol @ Elway and Marino in the 20s and going to end up as the 6th and 7th best QBs according to the list.

 

[Usain Bolt]

Sammy Baugh not top 10 LOLOL. led the league in passing TDs, kicking and INTs as a defender all in the same year

I think you are on to something there.

 

[The 18th Man]

Barry Sanders should be at least in the Top 10.

Brett Favre is a great player though it's a crime to rank him ahead of a Dan Marino and John Elway. Three MVP's and a Super Bowl ring are impressive as well the records, though I don't think he rates ahead of the two guys I mentioned.

Jerry Rice will be close to number one and deservedly so. Randy Moss is arguably the most dynamic WR ever, though he ain't the best that's played the game. Moss' attitude held him back a little and not owning a SB ring hurts him. Great player, one of the best outside a guy with the surname Rice.

It's all up for debate, the list though throws up a lot of questions on selection criteria. It seems a little askew from where I sit.

 

[Ray Martins Hair]

I'm with RJ. Some very questionable selections on this list.

His greatness is based somewhat on his record of playing near 300 consecutive games.

Not disputing that. His legacy will be his streak more so his other accomplishments for most.

You are right.

I don't believe he should be rated so high just because he has played so many consecutive games.

So lets see:

1. Bruce Smith - all time sack leader ( 90% of the time in a 3-4 defense)

2. Barry Sanders - his stats speak for themselves

3. Tom Brady - 3 time Superbowl leading QB ( mind you with an average pair of recievers)

4. Bruce Matthews - wasn't it 10 or so pro bowl appearences

5. Jim Kelly - numerous pro bowl appearences, led the Bills to 4 consecutive SB'S

6. OJ Simpsons - his stats speak for themselves

7. Moss -holds numerous Recieving records, and if if he doesn't, he's second only to Rice

8. Deion Sanders - the most dynamic CB of all time, i've never seen a CB EVER shut down one half of the field then the way he did, plus was an amazing KR, and quality reciever


the 18th man, as you said, Moss is the most dynamic WR of all time, surely that alone should place him alot higher then where he is. Marino imo crumbled like a 2 week turd every time play offs were around, he was more often then not anhilated by Jim Kelly and the bills.

IMO the worst decisons are Bruce Smith, OJ, Matthews, Sanders ( both), Moss...........hell there all crap. Even Andre Reed could make an argument to sqeaking in.

I question how long people on this board have been watching NFL for, Sanders in his day was the Lions!! every single one of my opinions is absolutely genuine.

If Bruce Smith played for the Cowboys he'd probably be top 5, same with Barry.

I did say "arguably", though take your point. I think his negative points and most notably the perception at times that he took plays off detracts from his more often than not outstanding play.

Marino did his best with no supporting cast on offense and whilst you're right to critique his playoff record, he did make a Super Bowl albeit was on the wrong side of the ledger. Marino was awesome. I find their is no in between when discussing his place in history.

Nice pos though. I echo your sentiments on most you went over, especially that of Deion and Barry.

Wasn't bagging your opinion, tbh didn't even read it, was commenting on your ranting in consecutive posts within a short space of time, very familiar, maybe just a coincidence.
