All time team for your favorite franchise

[Unholy Diver]

Please tell me you forgot about Polamalu rather than omitted him. Played all 12 years with the Steelers, DPOY in 2010, 8 pro bowls, 4 First team All-Pro and 2 Second team All-Pro. Please tell me you forgot....... or just really hate Head and Shoulders commercials.

Yeah completely slipped my mind, he would slot in there instead of Lake of course

[NJDevs26]

QB - Joe Namath
RB - Curtis Martin
FB - Matt Snell
WR - Don Maynard
WR - Keyshawn Johnson
TE - Mickey Shuler (bleh, TE's always been a wasteland of high round busts)
T - Winston Hill, Marvin Powell
G - Randy Rasmussen, Dave Herman

KR - Leon Washington

I am waiting for a Packer fan’s opinion on Favre vs Rodgers

Not a Packers fan but I unquestionably take Rodgers over Favre if I have a choice. Favre has more hardware but Rodgers is much more efficient.

Rodgers/Favre/Starr is pretty great QB depth on GB's all-time team, and of course Don Majkowski will put any team over the top at all times.

Not much to choose from, pretty good job there. My changes to yours are in bold.

 

[RussianRacket]

Yup, Babs is a great pick and I should have had him in my HM.

 

[MiamiScreamingEagles]

For the Vikings I'm only going to do players I've seen play (from the Moss years). Not going to worry about which sides they played on.

QB - Favre
RB - Peterson
FB - Jim Kleinsasser
WR - Randy Moss
WR - Cris Carter
TE - Kyle Rudolph
T - Bryant McKinnie
G - Steve Hutchinson
C - Matt Birk
G - Randall McDaniel
T - Korey Stringer

DE - Jared Allen
DT - Kevin Williams
DT - Pat Williams
DE - John Randle (HM to Danielle Hunter)
OLB - Chad Greenway
MLB - Eric Kendricks
OLB - Anthony Barr
CB - Antoine Whitfield
SS - Darren Sharper (HM to Corey Chavous)
FS - Harrison Smith
CB - Xavier Rhodes

P - Chris Kluwe
K - Gary Anderson
KR - Cordarrelle Patterson
PR - Marcus Sherels

I miss the days when the Vikings' lines were dominant.

My memory spans to 1970 but I haven't followed the NFL to anything close to the same level as then. But here goes one opinion with some backups who should be mentioned.

QB - Fran Tarkenton (backup could be Tommy Kramer, Brett Favre, Brad Johnson, etc.)
RB - Adrian Peterson
RB - Chuck Foreman [HM: Robert Smith]
FB - Dave Osborn or Bill Brown
TE/FB/Multi-Role Player- Jim Kleinsasser
TE - Steve Jordan or Kyle Rudolph
WR - Randy Moss
WR - Cris Carter [Jake Reed was underrated]
T - Gary Zimmerman [HM: Tim Irwin]
G - Steve Hutchinson [HM: Ed White]
C - Mick Tinglehoff [HM: Matt Birk]
G - Randall McDaniel
T - Ron Yary [HM: Grady Alderman]

DE - Jim Marshall [HM: Jared Allen]
DT - Alan Page
DT - John Randle [HM: Kevin Williams]
DE - Carl Eller or Chris Doleman
OLB - Matt Blair or Wally Hilgenberg
MLB - Jeff Siemon
OLB - Chad Greenway or Roy Winston
CB - Antoine Winfield
S - Harrison Smith [HM: Paul Krause]
S - Joey Browner
CB - Bobby Bryant or Carl Lee

P - Mitch Berger or Chris Kluwe (but Greg Coleman could fit)
K - Fred Cox (based on longevity; and the outdoor/winter game was tougher to kick) [HM: Ryan Longwell]
KR - Cordarrelle Patterson
PR - Marcus Sherels

 

[TheAngryHank]

I'll take the reigns for everyone's favorite franchise:

QB - Tom Brady
RB - Curtis Martin
RB - Kevin Faulk
WR - Randy Moss
WR - Julian Edelman
WR - Stanley Morgan
TE - Rob Gronkowski
LT - Matt Light
LG - Logan Mankins
C - John Morris
RG - John Hannah (I figure he could play the off guard)
RT - Bruce Armstrong

DE - Richard Seymour
DE - Willie McGinest
DT - Vince Wilfork
LB - Andre Tippett
LB - Tedy Bruschi
LB - Nick Bunoiconti
LB - Mike Vrabel
CB - Ty Law
CB - Mike Haynes
S - Rodney Harrison
S - Devin McCourty
K - Steven Gostkowski
P - Ryan Allen
KR/PR - Troy Brown
ST - Matthew Slater

Some tough cuts:
Lawyer Milloy
Played McGinnest at DE to make room for another LB, which was a deep area
Wes Welker - just couldn't put him after the playoff performances
Deion Branch
David Givens
Corey Dillon (just wasn't here long enough)
Asante Samuel
Gino Cappelletti

Of course a lot of it was slanted towards the Belichick era since that's when the dynasty occurred

Curtis Martin , nice call ,most underrated back of all time.

 

[Big Poppa Puck]

Agreed with most of TrapJesus as I said earlier, but it's quarantine and I'm bored lol. I'll try to account for all 60 years of history, but obviously will be biased towards players I've seen.

QB - Fran Tarkenton
RB - Adrian Peterson
RB - Chuck Foreman (HM: Robert Smith)
FB - Jim Kleinsasser
WR - Randy Moss
WR - Cris Carter
WR - Anthony Carter (HM: Sammy White, Ahmad Rashad, Jake Reed)
TE -Steve Jordan (HM: Kyle Rudolph)
T - Ron Yary
G - Steve Hutchinson
C - Mick Tinglehoff (HM: Matt Birk)
G - Randall McDaniel
T - Gary Zimmerman

DE - Jared Allen (HM: Chris Doleman)
DT - John Randle (HM: Kevin Williams)
DT - Alan Page
DE - Carl Eller (HM: Jim Marshall)
OLB - Chad Greenway
MLB - Eric Kendricks
OLB - Matt Blair
CB - Antoine Winfield
S - Paul Krause
S - Harrison Smith (HM: Joey Browner)
CB - Carl Lee (HM: Xavier Rhodes)

P - Mitch Berger
K - Fred Cox
KR - Cordarrelle Patterson
PR - Marcus Sherels

I'm a Bears fan tortured by both Favre and Rodgers for my entire life, and I can say that Rodgers>Favre AINEC.
Favre was surrounded by better players than Rodgers was.

It boils down to this
Career INT:
Rodgers: 84(364 TD in 12 years as a starter)
Favre: 336 (508 TD in 18 years as a starter)

Yeah Favre was a gunslinger in the best and worst senses of the term. The media was all over his well-publicized junk because he was a good-ol boy or whatever but they would have crucified many others that attempted the plays he did.

With Rodgers...I'm pretty sure that if you built a QB in a mad scientist's lab you'd come out with Rodgers. He's not the best of all time at the position but if you look strictly at physical gifts there aren't many better specimens. Some of the throws Rodgers has made...I have a hard time thinking of others that can make those plays and sometimes he makes it look so damn easy.
