Who do you think is/was the best player in the NFL?
I would have to go with the Guru, Johnny Unitas

[15thRegionCrazy]

Johnny Unitas-past
Peyton Manning-present
Ben Roethlisberger-future

[BrickHouse]

Thats a good list, I'll agree with it. Brett farve might fit in there somewhere, if the list was like the top 5 or something. Well done.

[15thRegionCrazy]

Brett Favre is one of the best.. just didn't play as good this season as he could have

Johnny Unitas-past
Peyton Manning-present
Ben Roethlisberger-future

PDT_002 You may also add Chad Johnson from Cincy to your list of futures. He already has better stats at this point in his career than what Marvin Harrison had at this point.

[Hip-hop Box]

Chad johnson is the future.
Payton Manning is the truth.
Ben rothlisburger is the dynasty

[imported_imported_torQQue]

Chad johnson is the future.
Payton Manning is the truth.
Ben rothlisburger is the dynasty

I have to agree with HH on this

[BelfryPride]

Barry Sanders
Johnny Unitas
Brett Farve
Jerome Bettis (The Bus !)

[thejuggernauts]

Dan Marino
Barry Sanders
Jerry Rice
from what I've seen in the past

Tom Brady
Ray Lewis
Randy Moss
Shaun Alexander
LaDanian Tomlinson
Donovan McNabb
from what I see today

I know everyone is very high on Roethisberger but I think Julius Jones could have a career that is equivalent to that of Big Ben's

[football05]

Barry Sanders
Emmitt Smith
John Elway
Troy Aikman MAN OF THE 90's

[blackcat]

Past- Barry Sanders
Present- Michael Vick
Future- Willis McGahee

[CatDawg]

How can I only chose one?

[Farva]

How can I only chose one?

I agree, so many great players, and all of them brought something different to the game. For me it is impossible to pick "The Best Player in the NFL".

[blackcat]

I also like Kevin Jones from Detroit.

Just wait for Jarred Lorenzon to return from the European League and you may be singing a different tune....

But really, I like Dan Marino, probably the best true quarterback ever.
