Thee are five positions in NFL football where who is THE GOAT cannot be debated/argued...

QB Tom Brady
Ball carrier...(actually a FB) Jim Brown
WR....Jerry Rice
Outside linebacker...Lawrence Taylor
And Kick Returner....Devin Hester, he is on a whole other level than anyone who ever returned NFL kicks.

Without question a Hall of Famer

Gets no better than this...





I would say Larry Allen makes that list at OG . And while I’m at it Joe Greene makes my team as one of the DT’s . A UNT grad no less.

With some of the best HS talent in the country in Dentons back yard could never figure out why UNT can’t consistently win . Even the left overs after the cream of the crop go off to UT Baylor OU and TCU you should still be able to successfully recruit talent like a Mean Joe Greene .

Allen's only competition is John Hannah who I didn't get to see play.

Larry Allen was a 6 x All Pro, Hannah was a 10 x All Pro
Larry Allen was a 11 x Pro Bowler, Hannah was a 10 x Pro-Bowler

Both of them were selected to the NFL's 100 Year team.

John Hannah dominated like Larry Allen. A team has 2 guards both should make the all time 22. Good choice to join Allen. Jim Otto the ex Oakland Raider is my center .

So you played in a HS league where guys were clocked in 4.4? So you know how fast those at other schools were, you know their 40 times?

This is getting a little confusing my friend, I played 4 years of HS ball and have no idea how fast anyone else was.
I ran track against Randy Moss at the WV state finals and every one knew is splits. If they are known athletes everyone knows. Randy was amazing to watch run it looked like his feet never even touched the ground.

What makes LA a greater O line player than Hannah was his ability to play Tackle as well as Guard. Hannah was great; I watched him play. LA ate people alive. One reason to think LA might be the better guard was the number of players that REQUESTED to be placed on the injured list prior to playing the Boys. So they had an excuse when LA ate them up and used their thigh bones to pick his teeth.

Mike Munchak was a pretty dominating guard himself as I recall
