Could be worse: Yours was the top comment when KZbin auto-loaded The NFLs 38th Best All-Time immediately after the NFLs declared 37th Best. Player. EVER: Jim Thorpe, who did everything better than everyone, but whose "highlight reel" ends with him drop kicking a ball in the ONLY film of him as an NFL player. It's actually shorter than the clip of two guys carrying Knute Rockne off the field after Jim ran over him for a 60 yd TD as payback for an earlier 2 yd loss. I understand why people say the prototypical modern wideout is only 10th when the archetypal modern wideout's #1 (i.e. Rice didn't just perfect what Hutson invented, he won his championships without abusing draft rejects.) But Jim Thorpe was the BEST EVERYTHING EVER.
@dwightlove37042 жыл бұрын
HUTSON was 9th but I get your point he sparked my fascination with WHITE WRs who had a reputation as speed merchants he paved the way for guys like ALWORTH,SONNY RANDLE,DEL SCHOFNER,DON MAYNARD,JACK SNOW,CARROL DALE,ROGER CARR,CRIS COLLINSWORTH and beyond.

Alworth was tougher, smarter, and far more versatile as a receiver than Randy Moss ever was. He ran better routes, played up the middle, rarely dropped the ball, and was not afraid to get out there and block. Alworth did it all in a time that was far grittier and it's completely unfair to write him off because of generational differences. Alworth also ran a 9.7 in the 100 as a 19 year-old sophomore in Fayetteville, which means he was exceptionally fast.

I think if Alworth was playing in today's NFL his production would have been incredible since in his day the DB's could harass you and your route a lot longer than can be legally done now. Perhaps Jerry should put Lance up on the Dallas Ring of Honor even though Lance only played there two seasons. It would be a tribute to all the excitement that Lance brought to the game, no matter where he played. His beautiful running style and route running is a joy to behold for football history. Yes, I realize he's in the Charger Hall of Fame also--why not be in two???

Dolphin Goosby, I loved Warfield's game. Averaged a TD for every 5 receptions career (85/427) as well as over 20 yards per catch. Played on teams (60s Browns, 70s Dolphins) that insisted on run first, limiting his opportunities. Excellent routes, great hands and speed. And the humility not to complain about being reigned in on running teams. Won an oldschool NFL title (1964) as well as back-to-back SBs (1972-73). There are players who have nearly double the catches who still have fewer TDs. One of my favorite all-time players.

College stats were so modest then. Alworth was primarily a running back, and he gained 531 yds rushing as a senior to go with 18 receptions for 320 yards, all in ten games.

Lance is on another level. I don't know if he is better than Moss, although it's arguable. You can't compare players across eras. Alworth was dominant for the time he played, as was Randy. Lance does have one thing going for him, and that's that he is one of the very few old school players that could play today. Some sources say he was an easy 4.4 on the field, and he was almost 6'1. I still think Randy should be higher, but Alworth is in the Moss/Rice/Hutson mold for his era.

Sorry but Jerry is not the owner you think he is what has he done for Dallas on the field after Jimmy was forced out.

Allworth was the best in his day.The one to emulate if you wanted to be a wide out. He looked like a deer when he ran and was about as fast as one too.

Alworth could star in either era. Moss would not have done as well in the 60s, getting clotheslined and hit out of bounds by guys who knew it would get to him. And Alworth was succeeding against arguably better DBs, because the AFL had to turn to lesser known athletes from historically black colleges.
@savagetv64604 жыл бұрын
the NFL and afl had similar athletes though. the difference was that the afl had more innovation while the NFL had more legendary coaches
