Ok, a twist. Of these two franchises with such incredible histories -- name the top 3 players at each position from each team since 1960 (sorry, I refuse to look up pre-1960 Packers) and name a winner at the position. Requirement: Player had to play 5 years for one of the teams. Who has the best selection of players in the end?
I'll start with QB:
Quarterback:
Cowboys: Staubach, Aikman, Romo
Packers: Starr, Favre, Rodgers
If I had to rank these guys it would be and assign a point value to each:
Staubach (6 points)
Starr (5 points)
Favre (4 point)
Aikman (3 points)
Rodgers (2 points)
Romo (1 point)
Cowboys: 10 points, Packers 11 Points (Winner)
Commentary: Only argument here is Favre vs Aikman in my mind. Depending on how you view them, the winner of this category flip flops. To early to rank Romo or Rodgers higher.
Running Back
Cowboys: Smith, Dorsett, Hershel Walker
Packers: Jim Taylor, Ahman Green, Dorsey Levens
If I had to rank these guys it would be and assign a point value to each:
Smith (6 Points)
Dorsett (5 Points)
Jim Taylor (4 points)
Walker (3 point)
Ahman Green (2 points)
Dorsey Levens (1 point)
Cowboys: 14 points (Winner), Packers 7 points
Anybody want to take a crack at WR (wow, Irvin, Hayes, Sharpe, Lofton, etc, etc)?
