boohyah Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 I think Barry Sanders is the best player to ever play the game, if you think about it. Montana next, then Jim Brown. LT would be 4th or 5th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LT would be 4th or 5th. Although I never saw him play I have been told that Jim Brown was better than Sanders simply based on the fact that Brown never had negative runs, whereas Sanders would go 2, 1, 3, 4, -3, 0, 1, 1 , 0, 85 Many old timers still say Johnny U.

Barry was great. Best RB ever, but I don't like it that he left after 10 years. I mean I understand it perfectly, just don't like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herc Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 my top 3 in order is LT, brown, montana. best player of all time is certainly debatable, but i refuse to even entertain the notion that best defensive player is debatable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Herc Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 probably, but people do it anyway and it makes for good discussion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ksm7 Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 probably, but people do it anyway and it makes for good discussion very true...the dog certainly enjoys that...but it ultimately ends with no resolution, which of course, is fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
