Just reading that name scares me.

#14..........

Re: NFL.com's top 100
 

Thorpe and Baugh are much lower on the list than I would have thought. Halas wasn't a player so I don't see him there

Yes, Thorpe and Baugh seem to have been robbed.

How about Don Hutson

[quote=SmootSmack;753646]Thorpe and Baugh are much lower on the list than I would have thought. Halas wasn't a player so I don't see him there[/quote]I'm watching the Top Ten show now, I hadn't followed last week....this list has no credibility if Baugh isn't top 10. He should be #1.

Re: NFL.com's top 100
 

Don Hutson was the missing guy from the original post. Sammy Baugh was #14. Now I never watched him play but I still believe being #14 out of the thousands, if not millions, of players to come through the NFL, well that's still a very great honor. I think it was a very good list.

Re: NFL.com's top 100
 

I sort of figured Jerry Rice to be number 1. His stats are too far ahead of the next guy. class act, something like 20 years in the league. Heck, the whole idea to come up with this list may have been because of him. I've been a Skins fan since 1979 and I feel priviledged to have watched football during the 80's and 90s. Of the top 5, Montana, L.T. and Rice were players from that era. Jim Brown at 2 is almost a mythical figure today. Enjoy the Peyton Manning and Tom Brady right now, we may not see another like them for awhile. With all of the media focus on Brett Favre these days, when Manning and Brady walk away, the league will not be the same.

Darrell Green is only given credit for15 seasons. Mabye he'd be higher if they didnt take a 1/4 of his carrer away from him?
