I assume you are talking about the NFL...

Peyton, yes

White, yes


Al Wilson or Eric Berry aren't Top 20 all time at their positions. Berry would have been Top 20 if not for injuries but not Top 5. Cordarelle (as a returner), Witten (as a TE), and Atkins are far closer to the Top 5 than Wilson or Berry.

2 out of 5 is much better than this guy usually does.

Peyton, White and Adkins are definites... Adkins may be the best defensive player of all time. He was better than Reggie. They didn't record sacks back then. Teams literally schemed their entire offensive gameplans around Doug. You could argue that Patterson may be the best ST player ever. I think one more return TD and he'll have the ALL TIME record.

Miami, Ohio St, ND, all have more hall of famers than us.

Reggie White was one of the most dominant players of all-time. I’ve never seen a player throw NFL OL like rag dolls with one arm like he did. And after he would throw them in the backfield he would go help them up and say “God bless you”. Not only was he possibly the greatest football player ever but he truly was one of the most impressive human beings we’ve ever seen. Lawrence Taylor even called him the best to ever do it and many consider him the best. For those that are younger that never saw the man play, just watch some of these plays and be amazed:

Can’t see Berry or Patterson even in the top 20. Much less top 5. I agree with White and Manning. And don’t know anything about Atkins. Witten in top 10. Uncertain about too 5.

Not sure Peyton is top 5.

Brady, Marino, Elway, Montana, Brees, Favre, Rogers, Roethlisberger, Warner could all be thrown in right with him. Manning honestly only won one super bowl leading the charge. Any guy on this list would have won with that Denver team and their defense.

Yes Manning was the king of the regular season but in the playoffs his stats aren’t nearly as good.

I sure wish we could have 1 like Doug on every Team.

I also wish I would win the lottery, LOL!

THANKS for posting that highlight video!

I never thought I'd see anyone as good as Reggie White.

VFL...GBO!!!

not only is Peyton top 5, he is also the goat in my eyes because if he played with Belicheck and those defenses, he would have more rings than Tom

Even then, I'm not sure any of those guys are Top 5 all time at their position other than Hester as returner. You can make arguments for Reed, Sapp, and Lewis for sure but Johnson and Irvin arent top 5 WRs.

You people seriously need to get over this. If and buts, candy and nuts. Kind of like if you weren't usually completely wrong in your predictions and things you post, you might be taken more seriously.
