Quickkickonthird Wrote:You make an outstanding point about L. Taylor and R. White. Im sure a case could be made that both were the best that ever played their positions. Taylor was one of those very rare players that changed the game. Chipping was basically started because of Taylor. I also like Belichick's comment on Bert Jones. I dont know if he was the best "pure" passer I ever saw but he was a heckuv a good one. One of my all time favorites, Mean Joe Green, was also among these type players. He was doubled practically every play. Pass rushing back then was easier on the D Line due to the Off Line having to keep their hands in to their bodies.
Just for discussion purposes, Taylor is #1 on my list of greatest players of all time. It is close between him and Deon Sanders. Sanders was, hands down, the best cover corner to ever play. Anthony Munoz is also on the list. He was simply overwhelming.
LT changed the game! Joe Gibb of the Washington Redskins developed a single RB offense using MAX protection with lots of motion and 2 TEs plus the H-Back position all because of LT. Some of these clowns on here think LT couldn't play in todays NFL. IMO he would be more dominate today than he was in the 80's because teams throw the ball now more than they did in the 80's thus giving LT more shots at sacking the QB. Deon Sanders was a player ahead of his time! His speed on the track is better than even the fastest players in today's NFL, his "Football" speed is unmatched period! A guy like Larry Allen who bench pressed over 700lbs is perfect example of player from the past would dominate today the same as he did during his day. The Dallas Cowboys have the best O-line in the NFL right now but it is a smaller and less athletic line than the one they had 20 years ago! There is NO DOUBT in my mind that the O-line the Cowboys had in the early 90's would have no problem lining up and running over the Seattle Defense of today just like the Cowboy line did last week! I will take that Cowboy's line for the 90's with a Prime Bo Jackson at RB and Montana at QB with Jerry Rice and Tim Brown at WR and break the WILL of a ALL STAR team of todays best defenders!
