You're right about Joe Namath.

And if Mickey Mantle had good knees, he'da hit 800 HR`s.

Sanders is the #1 runner of all time. Just watch the highlight films.

Yeah, and he quit when he had life left.

As usual, your opinion is in the minority.

"E. Smith should wake up every morning and direct deposit money into every member of that offensive lines bank account."

Ain't that the truth. Nice career rushing record. Wonder what Barry Sanders would have if he stayed in for a few more.

Dang straight! Griese, Kick, Czonka, Morris, Warfield, Buonacontti, no name defense. The FIRST undefeated team in history. 72-73 Dolphins, THE team.

Sander's job was to "hit the home-run"...every play...

Remember Griese missed most of the 72 season, Earl Morrall was the QB for most of 72.

That is why it is my firm belief that Adrian Peterson WILL be the best running back EVER to play the game. There, I said it. He has everything: speed, balance, power, doesn't fumble, hits the hole hard. HE WILL BE THE BEST EVER.

I guess many would disagree as Jerry's not even in the hall of fame.

Emmitt Smith was a joke. Put him behind Barry Sander's offensive line and we would have never heard of him.

Aikman was just awesome.

Don't forget to add in the Lions play caaling for 6 years:

Barry Left on 1st down.
Barry left on 2nd down.
Middle screen to Barry on 3rd down.
Punt.

The defense tends to focus quickly.

Pass defense was almost non-existent in the old AFL as well. Basketball on grass. But anyway, 11,000 yards doesn't dent the top ten all-time.

1. Jerry Rice - 22,458
2. Tim Brown - 15,761
3. James Lofton - 14,004
4. Cris Carter - 13,899
5. Henry Ellard - 13,777
6. Andre Reed - 13,198
7. Steve Largent - 13,089
8. Irving Fryar - 12,785
9. Art Monk - 12,721
10. Charlie Joiner - 12,146
