^I'd guess a street free agent of some sort. Practice squad one week, claimed by another team, cut, rinse repeat

Costco

Good point.... okay, I meant start for 3 different teams

bgsm1th

Yes. He will be the first to actually play for three different teams in one season, thus becoming the first player every to catch a touchdown for three different teams in a season as well.

Longest tenured active coach, player's coach, no nonsense guy. Look how Fisher jettisoned Volek when he acted up.

So the NFL Network's top 100 players countdown is going to start in about an hour, with the final top 10 players to be named. All I know is that Jerry Rice better be in the top 2.

Never Summer

Glad he came in at number one! I have his jersey from his training camp stint with the Broncos, bought it the day he retired.

way to go jerry.

i was suprised at brady's spot.

3 rings and probably more to come..

i know he's still playing but that didnt stop them from slapping manning at 8th.

And Walter Payton as #1.


Greatest running back and football player...ever.

I don't care how long football goes on for.... I'm pretty confident that for the rest of eternity, Jerry Rice will always have his name somewhere in the NFL record books, even despite the possible 18 game seasons. Hell, even if they go to 22 games/season or something. The man worked out by chasing horses, for Christ's sake. He'd chase it until he caught it, and sometimes that took more than an hour.

Still wish I had that Rice jersey I had from over a decade ago, it's so small that if I put it on now it'd probably rip apart.

Walter payton was indeed the best all-around football player ever.. and also one of the greatest RBs.

but there is no question in many minds who was the best RB that ever played the game...

I loved watching Barry. That dude was nasty. What makes him one of the best, IMO, is he NEVER celebrated when he scored a TD....classy dude.

Rockstar21

iTrader: (1)

and that he nearly broke all of the coveted RB records in way less time than most played...

he also had no team (including O-Line) to go along with his talent for help.

he was a one man show if there ever was one.

Yeah I have the utmost respect for Barry Sanders. A very humble guy too. IIRC there was a story about some really young fan who went up to him and said "my dad says you're the greatest player ever" and he just said "That's very kind of your dad to say"

I admire people that talk through their actions and not with their words, especially when it comes to something like football. Speaking of which, anyone notice that Terrell Owens wasn't even on the list?

sad too, b/c he should or maybe i said "could" be very easily..

his attitude and inconsistency keeps him off IMO.

Reggie White #7...nice

Costco

I think as a player he has been great for the most part. He's also a really hard working individual... have you seen his physique?!?! Regardless, he is a cancer. I think it unfairly hurt his chances in this poll, but when its his turn to be a HOF'er I really hope he gets passed up.

Motherf-ckin werd. BS forever

I wouldn't be surprised at all if Manning is eventually known as the greatest QB of all time.

I know his lack of rings hurts him a little bit, but he's going to have almost every record there is when he's done, he'll have gone to at least to Super Bowls, won one, and can take dudes playing Madden and make them serviceable targets.

No question, awesome video also. I loved going to the Silverdome as a kid to watch Barry, he was so strong on his feet, the guy would never go down. Absolutely one of the best of all time for sure

Nice Barry Sanders vid...always remember watching him every Thanksgiving. I hate it that he had to play for a garbage franchise like the Lions

Just think of the draft pick they're gonna get...and all the new coaches.

MySoCalLife

Barry Sanders = the greatest ever. I dont care what anyone says.

Well, that wasnt much of a game for the pack. Now for they bye week to rest up and maybe get some of the players that are injured back.

And daym Clay Matthews. That guy is everywhere .

That was painful to watch.. I can't imagine wade being coach in the morning

Great win over the Colts


and wow @ the Cowboys. they're getting worse each game

Did you see #21 pull up short of contact? :pussy: :quitter:

The bye week certainly helped Cutler grow a brain with his passing...Whew.

ya i saw that and it was horrible . i think it was Jenkins? either way, Wade should be fired b/c it seemed like everything that could go wrong in that game did

jupitersolo

There's no reason to fire him until after the season ends. It's not going to change anything.

SG81

why not give Garret a shot?

bgsm1th

How 'bout them Cowboys!!

Rockstar21

iTrader: (1)

i say give him a shot, but a fresh one.

no sense in dumping an already doomed season on a guy.

the players morale is down... the fans morale is down..cant see them trying their hearts out from here on out and i'd hate to see somebody else take the blame for it.

Yumcha

DOA.

ya, makes sense i guess.


a lotta Bears fans in Toronto this weekend. i don't think this is what the Bills were hoping for. but whatever, they made a fortune off it
