At another message board I was involved in a fantasy draft of all time players. It was just something to pass the time during the offseason. You know, talk about old players and debate and stuff.

I would like it if you folks could take a look at these two teams and tell me which one would win this matchup if these teams played against each other with all of these players at their peaks.

We are playing under current NFL rules.

You should base the matchups of how dominant the players were in their day. In other words, don't look at it and say, "Well, this guy played in the 1950s. He would probably be mediocre today."

If Player A was dominant in the 1950s and Player B just "pretty good" in the 1990s, then Player A has to be considered the better player.

So, on to the game.

Just kindly respond with which team you think would win and if you want to provide an explanation that would be great.


Team A on left, Team B on right

QB- Joe Montana.......................Roger Staubach
RB- Marcus Allen........................Marshall Faulk
RB- Marion Motley......................John Henry Johnson
WR- Don Maynard......................Paul Warfield
WR- Steve Largent.....................Jerry Rice
TE- Mike Ditka...........................Jackie Smith
LT- Jim Parker............................Winston Hill
LG- Steve Wisniewski..................John Hannah
C- Jim Langer.............................Bulldog Turner
RG- George Musso.......................Larry Little
RT- Rayfield Wright......................Bob Brown

K- Lou Groza...............................Jan Stenerud
P- Matt Turk...............................Reggie Roby

DE- Gerry Philbin..........................Tombstone Jackson
DT- Joe Greene............................Bob Lilly
DT- Warren Sapp.........................Buck Buchanan
DE- Chris Doleman........................Charles Haley
OLB- Junior Seau..........................Bobby Bell
MLB- Willie Lanier..........................Dick Butkus
OLB- Robert Brazile.......................Jack Ham
CB- Herb Adderley.........................Lem Barney
SS- LeRoy Butler...........................Kenny Easley
FS- Cliff Harris..............................Brian Dawkins

This thing didn't consist of just two teams. There are ten teams total.

And even so, there are about 10 backs better than Smith.

I disagree unless you are talking about Payton or Jim Brown.

Why, because he played for the Cowboys?

I don't really know alot about these players, but I'd say Team B.

Staubach and Rice would make for a good offense.

Lilly and Haley would make for a good defense.

Ummm maybe because he's the all time yardage leader

Sanders had better numbers on a worse team.

I see you are yet another homer who lacks in NFL history knowledge.

And with that you've lost your privilege to ever say Michael Irvin was better than Art Monk. (Monk had more yards.)
