ABENOSE !
But I will keep my "lock" pick quiet until I see several other SBR'S members losing picks !

[Richkas]

Jim Brown

[pavyracer]

Barry Sanders

[Mikail]

"Sweetness" Walter Payton!

[CaneDawg]

Earl Campbell

[DwightShrute]

There isn't one clear cut winner. Sorry but an impossible question to answer. Cannot be done!

[oiler]

"Sweetness" Walter Payton!

michael vick,,,haha just kidding,,definetly walter payton not only for the accomplishments he did in football but the way he presented himself away from the game he represented the game like a pro

[jjgold]

Sanders was a quitter and did not like to be hit and never did anything in post season so he can never be on list

[Zelda]

JJGoldino...watch the videos!

[rezkoness69]

Jerry Rice..the best FOOTBALL player of all time...he truely was a student of the game and would do whatever it took for his team to win. The difference between him and the 2nd receiver in history is not even close, he dominated.

[Richkas]

Sanders was my second followed by Marshall Faulk

[EaglesPhan36]

Mark Gastineau. Don't play like it ain't true.

[robertg]

Joe Montana (it pains me to say as a life-long cowboys homer)

[Go Beavers]

Completely Biased, but I'll throw Bo Jackson a vote

[SSLP]

Dick Butkus

[BGS 9.5]

Dick Butkus

Lawrence Taylor, I loved him in "Tecmo Bowl"

If you had the Giants, the team you were playing would never have a successful field goal or PAT.

You fellows are dead wrong about not "one" player stands out among the top 100 players of all-time !
There is one that ranks there with Micheal Jordan as the icon of his sport,FOOTBALL !

And after the NFL wrap up I will tell you young'uns WHO he is ?

the suspense is killing me,....and thanks for calling me young,i appreciate that

[twentyonekid]

by the way guys what are these SBR POINTS i keep seeing

[tullamore]

Don Hutson

[Shortstop]

Walter Payton

[ABEHONEST]

His name is.....JIM BROWN !

He averaged 5.2 yds. per carry on a 6'2" muscled bound 230 lb. frame !
BROWN had for his size ,great speed,along with awesome power !

BROWN "never" missed a game in 9 seasons in the NFL !

He led the league 8/9 of the years he played !

Paul Brown[ever heard of him],was his coach ,and the one season he didn't win the rushing title [there was a serious feud between Coach Brown and Jim Brown], and according to JIM BROWN , either I go or the Coach goes !

So guess what ?Paul Brown is fired, and the first year with the new coach,Collier,Cleveland win's the NFL CHAMPIONSHIP ,with Brown having a super season !
The next season,Brown's last at age 29, Cleveland made it all the way to the Championship game ,but lost .

Famed sports columnist and Pulitzer Prize winner Red Smith wrote ,"for mercerial speed ,airy nimbleness, and explosive violence in one package of undistilled evil , there is no other like Mr. Brown !"

Damn! that was my second guess!!!

[THEGREAT30]

I liked Walter Payton didn't get to see much of Jim Brown.

[Nickelicious]

You can't go wrong with Jim Brown. But Montana and Rice deserve a mention when it comes to rings, and Walter Payton deserves a mention because he was, indeed, the greatest man who ever played football. (RIP, sweetness).

[ABEHONEST]

A late congrats to RICHKAS,the only "one" to select the icon JIM BROWN for his single choice !

your responce is exactly why i say you cannot just name one,football is the one sport that stands by itself as far as being able to name the greatest player to wear pads....all the answers are correct ones,you can't go wrong with any of them
