5 greatest Cowboys ever: name 'em

[BigStar]

Aikman, Emmitt, Irvin, Woody & Allen. Just going with the era I was born into. Much respect to the historic greats though! Just never got to watch them live.

 

[theSHOW]

Got to go with 1. Tom Landry 2. Roger staubach

3. Bob Lilly

4. Jimmy 5. Michael

 

[Hostile]

cannot argue with any of those picks. IF this is just players.

Players still need a coach, and there is only one as far as I will always be concerned. I don't care if Garrett wins 5 more trophies, he is no Coach Landry. No one is. I do want those 5 trophies though, and a lot more.

 

[Carolina Cowboy]

Mr. Cowboy, Bob Lilly
Captain America, Roger Staubach
The Rushing Champion, Emmitt Smith
The NFL's Strongest man, Larry Allen
The Manster, Randy White

This, but I substitute the man in funny hat for the Manster.

 

[theSHOW]

For me I might go with rounding out the top 10 with these all time greats

6. Jerry Jones 7. Tony Dorsett 8. Emmitt Smith 9. Randy White 10. Larry Allen 10a. Lee Roy Jordan 10b. Mel Renfro 10c. Deon Sanders

Come on kid. lol

Don't get me wrong, I've watched film of them online and NFL films. Just feel weird rating them not being from those eras and being present when they were players, etc.

I would love to see Darren Woodson teamed up with Cliff Harris during each their prime. Put Sanders and Renfro on islands and the Dallas defense would have 3 and outs all day long.

Your lineup looks like some of my old downloaded madden rosters I actually almost put Deion/Haley in there but couldn't justify them over Woody or Allen. Admittedly, Haley was much more integral than Woody but Woody is Woody. Woody. Great topic!

 

[percyhoward]

5 greatest, by decade:
60's Lilly
70's Staubach
80's R White
90's Smith
00's Witten

 

[Angus12]

Roger Staubach
Bob Lilly
Emmitt Smith
Randy White
Michael Irvin

If we're including more than players, drop White and Irvin and add Tom Landry and Jimmy Johnson.

 

[Plankton]

If it's just players:

1. Emmitt Smith
2. Bob Lilly
3. Roger Staubach
4. Troy Aikman
5. Larry Allen

If it's the whole franchise, put Landry at the top, make Jimmy Johnson fifth, and drop Aikman and Allen.
