How #78 is not the all time sack leader is beyond me. Bruce played in a 3-4 as an end. Consequently, he was double teamed every single play. Reggie and Deacon played a 4-3 end on the edge.

Not a bad list, but you whiffed on #5. Paul Hornung won how many Super Bowls with the Packers?

George Rodgers at #38 over Arnie Herber? An average running back with no league titles over a hall-of-famer with 4 titles??? Arnie Herber, along with Don Hutson CHANGED THE GAME.

An FYI for The Yaks: Rickey Jackson is on the list at worthy of consideration. Think you saw an early version before updated. Feel free to comment again. Thx.

Looks like this list was created by a cowboys fan. Lets be serious....Deion over LT? Aikman over Steve Young? Give me a break.

# 37 - Pat Fischer - CB (Cardinals, Redskins). Tough cover and force man. Several Pro Bowls.
He should have at least been considered.

Otto Graham twice? #14 should have gone to Don Hutson.....in the "3 yards and a cloud of dust" era, this guy hauled in 99 career TDs. Hutson revolutionized the position, and many Packer fans would choose him as the greatest player in team history. He wasn't even SIs runner-up!

Tom Brady should be no higher than 5th. Bradshaw, Griese, Namath and Staubach were all better.

# 32 - Jack Pardee (LB) - Rams, Redskins - Another multi-time Pro Bowler like Fischer.
I know # 32 is a tough list to crack with all those RB's, but Jack Tatum and John L.Williams before Pardee? geez!

You lost credibility at #14 when Dan Fouts was omitted.

The list seems to favor the modern era in many respects, pure stats over real performance. Today's game is more stat driven and easily defined by them, the pre 1970's NFL was more about helping your team win.

I stopped reading this when i saw michael vick was worthy of consideration for number 7. Wow.. I thought it was greatest players from 0 to 49.. not average players with average stats.

A lot of Buffalo Bills really got screwed on this list. I'll give you a lot of guys over Kelly and Walter Payton over Thurman but I don't see Munoz over Bruce Smith, Simeon Rice over Biscuit or Youngblood over Andre Reed. I know that the Bills didn't win Super Bowls but neither did Marino and he was picked over Kurt Warner and he could NEVER touch the Bills come January.
