TheSage Posted July 4, 2008 Share Posted July 4, 2008 Toss up between Harrison and Moss. Don'y believe Harrison ever had Moss' speed and not his size but the defenses were stacked to stop him and he still led the league in receptions or was close to the top. Moss is a rare physical specimen with his size and speed but doesn't have Harrison's hands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anskyruben Posted July 4, 2008 Share Posted July 4, 2008 Michael Irvin. In his prime he was second to none. He did have a Hall of Famer throwing to him , but he was quite a show to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackout Posted July 8, 2008 Author Share Posted July 8, 2008 Good GOD, man. How can you not have Lance Alworth on this list??? You have a poll for runningbacks and don't include Gale Sayers and now a poll for wide receivers and don't include Alworth. Even my man, Maynard, was second fiddle to Alworth back in the old AFL. Some things are subjective. Not including Sayers and Alworth on all time lists are grounds for dismissal. You are not allowed to do any more polls. who on my RB list is NOT better than Gale Sayers? seriously here lets be in perspective, I only get 10 options im doing a poll just to spite your ass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DMaynard Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 who on my RB list is NOT better than Gale Sayers? seriously here lets be in perspective, I only get 10 options im doing a poll just to spite your ass RBs on your list not better than Gale Sayers? Everyone except possibly Jim Brown. I was just kidding, but you can do polls until the cows come home. If you are proud of your NFL history ignorance, flaunt it, baby.

124 Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 The fact that Michael Irvin has 5 votes and Andre Reed has 0 makes the voters a joke. It is Randy Moss though, no doubt about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nyjunc Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 Guys like Swann and Monk have no buisness being in this discussion or being in the Hall of Fame. Both made it b/c they were good guys who had a big media campaign behind them. Obviously talent wise players today are better which is why we compare players to the players of their era which is why Don Hutson is right there for best of all time. Hutson played 11 seasons: -8 time 1st team All-Pro -Led NFL in recs 8 times(2nd twice and 6th once) -led NFL in recs yds 7 times(2nd 3 times, 3rd once) -Led NFL in Rec TDs 9 times(2nd twice) That's even more impressive than Rice who played 16 years: -10 time 1st team All-Pro(63% of career compared to73% for Hutson) -Led NFL in Recs twice -Led NFL in Rec yds 6 times -Led NFL in Rec Tds 6 times Obviously it was a different game and Rice had more competition BUT Hutson dominated his competition like no one else.

Ya'll gonna say a guy who's not in the top 100 all time in rushing yards is the best? dude couldnt last 5 full years. i'm not a dinosaur but I've got me a large "NFL Films" collection...seen all the greats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
