It is a fact stats are facts If Sanders had 20,000 thousand yards I would not argue with him being called the best because he would have earned it

I guess Kerry Collins was a better QB than Joe Montana then

Who knew?

Lol

So that means Gayle Sayers will never be in your top 10 which would make any list flawed.

Does not matter to me this is not about them or Quarterbacks if it was I would state that Brady is the best ever and the argument would be over

Flawed only to you

QB’s are generally rated differently from most positions since winning is all too often associated with greatness.

Drink some more and post some more

Yes I did. I loved him. What a freak of nature. His peak talent is greater than anything I've seen, maybe other than Deion or Larry Allen.

No, I don't, and I never said that.

Not concerned with Gil's list at this point, as much as I am posts in this thread.

But Gil’s list is what this thread is about ?

Anyway .Carry on. Didn’t mean to deter you but there’s always Cowboy fans who place our guys above their place in history. Emmitt is certainly one of those occassions.

Emmett placed himself in his place in NFL history not Cowboys fans

I’m not going to get into where he should be on the list at the moment, but longevity and toughness are so underrated. They are completely apart of the package, and you could make the case near the top of it. They are just as valuable skills as running fast.

Right!

All Time Leading Rusher doesn’t define greatest.

And there’s an “ I” in Emmitt. Emmett lol

 

[Trouty]

@pitt33

you have something to say to me? endorsing a post that says "i'm usually wrong"

what with it then? where was i wrong in this thread in thine eyes? how am i "usually wrong?"

a non-reply is duly noted

 

[Cowpolk]

Right!

It defines the beasty best ever

Emmitt's gifts to what made him tick was no less than those gifts for other players.

I disagree

Walter Payton was significantly more gifted athletically than Emmitt Smith.

 

[Trouty]

I do but it gets to a point where we start debating topics that just go off the beaten path....and the incessant debate of how bad or good dak and Garrett are just drones on


In the words of captain speelmen from Stripes "What I wouldn't give for some action!"
