Mine is a very close tie between Thurman Thomas of the Buffalo Bills and Barry Sanders. I liked them both. Thurman Thomas worked so hard as a small man and dominated with his hands and rushing the ball. He has the record for most postseason TD's in the NFL. Look it up if you don't believe me. They went to four Super Bowls. Lost, but I don't care they were still my team back then. Alltime team is the 1990's Buffalo Bills. I will always love that team! Anyway, Barry Sanders I never seen a better football player period not even Walter Payton and I was old enough to see him play the running back position. Barry Sanders was something to see on TV he was exciting to watch. Anyway, who's your favorite football player all time at any position Defense or Offense doesn't matter. Who?

YEAH, another BILLS fan!! My all time favorite team is also the 1990's Bills. My favorite player is Doug Flutie. He showed that you CAN play QB under 6ft tall. I will never forgive Wade Phillips for benching him after he got them to the playoffs!!

Emmitt Smith, now I am not saying he was better than Barry Sanders or Jim Brown or Walter Payton. But I am a cowboy fan and he is probably the best all time player in cowboys history. Not just because of all the records he set, but his personality and work ethic were amazing and he always gave credit to the offensive line, teammates and coaches for his accomplishments.

Brett Favre, Joe Montana.
Had the Lions coaching staff not ridden the coat-tails of Barry Sanders, he could have easily been the best of all time. Barry behind the Dallas offensive line? Please! Poor Barry made the Lions just good enough not to get anyone decent in the draft, and made the coaching staff look like they were doing a good job.
No wonder he retired in disgust.

Jim Brown even though I never saw him (or Sanders for that matter...). Brown was fast and big, just an amazing player. Another guy with a build like Brown was John Riggins. He had some issues but great player. My favorite player now is my man Clinton Portis. CLINTON FOR PRESIDENT 08!!!

I would have to agree that Barry Sanders was amazing, and would have absolutely crushed the all time rushing record if he would have stuck with it.
Favorite player going now is Troy Polamalu from the Steelers.

Archie Manning...Ole Miss back in the late 60s and then QB for the New Orleans Saints..he may not have won a championship but he sure produced some fine sons and has done great work for all of us in the New Orleans area. Go Archie!
