The only other 46 that I know of was the man that Buddy Ryan named the famed "46" defense after: Former Bears safety Doug Plank. And by the way, homer bias or not, Tommie Harris belongs at 91.
You can't base a list for today on what you think a player may do. As of today, Bradshaw has 4 rings to Brady's 3. Both have 2 Super Bowl MVP's, both have 1 NFL MVP, Bradshaw is a 4 time All-Pro, Brady 2. You can compare their stats, but it's two different era's. As of today, you have to go Bradshaw over Brady. You can't base a decision on what you think Brady may do. He may never win another one...you never know. By the way...46 has got to be Lou Groza or Herman Edwards over LaDell Betts. Herman Edwards was #46 and he's much better than LaDell Betts. Just my opinion. Yeah, 28 is a real tough one. I went with Faulk because of his numbers, but now I'm second guesing. Martin was good for a long time, as was Darrell Green...
So players are getting penalized now for the teams they were a part of? The guys numbers don't lie, he was one of the most explosive well rounded backs of his era if not all time. Faulk deserves 28.
marshall faulk. after everything is weighed out, throw it in the trash, marshall faulk. terry bradshaw should be over tom brady as well. it's a joke.
there's no help with 41, Terrance Newman is the best NFL player to wear it, that's not even being a homer, I thought there was someone else too, but i've found a couple of sites for the same thing we're doing, all have Newman at 41. i agree with Bradshaw over Brady, it isn't because I hate Tom Brady either. It's because Bradshaw won 4 Superbowls, Without Cheating. People can say well " Brady would of had 4, and probably will ". He woulda, coulda, shoulda.... But Didn't. And for him "probably" going to get the 4th one, for all we know, he could trip, and fall... land on his shoulder, and never be able to throw a football again, Not wishing for that to happen, i'm just saying.. it could, then he never gets #4. Terry Bradshaw, has 4. Tom Brady has 3, with a barry bonds size asterisk beside of all 3, imo. :icon_razz:
Bradshaw should definitely be over Brady. Bradshaw has 4 rings to Brady's three; that may or may not be legit! You can't possibly put Brady in over Bradshaw on the sheer fact that you think he might do more than Bradshaw. I agree with Inclulbus! 12 is not even a contest right now. Bradshaw. Unbiased. Not sure about number 41. Is there not an older guy that sported that number?
Next year, if Brady wins the Superbowl, breaks one of his own records, breaks Peyton Manning's QB Rating Record, or throws for 5,000+ yards, or if no new news emerges in Spygate starting on opening day, he's gonna have 12. For now it's Bradshaw do to people biting my head off even though the Steelers are probably gonna win this heckin game, but that will almost definitely change.
Yeah, but Irvin, Swann and Harrison are all WR's...and Tony G. is a TE...AND has the best stats of all TE's....Does Harrison have the best stats of all WR's?? I don't think so.
