Agree, Jim brown should be number 1 and Barry #2. The City of Detroit had a huge parade planned for when he broke Walter Paytons rushing record. They had it all figured out when he would break it because he was so consistent. They never ever thought he would just up and quit at the height of his career.

[@splitman1129]

Your boy Antonio Freeman and who was #2 WR. I can't remember.

[@tempest20000]

It’s so sad to think about what Sterling Sharpe could have been if he had been with the Packers in 95-98. Sharpe was only in the league for 5 or 6 years when he got hurt and just look at his numbers. He was a once in a generation WR. And look at the dominant teams of the NFC. Cowboys had Emmitt Smith, Aikman and Irvin, 49ers had Watters, Young and Rice, and the Packers had Dorsey Levens (really under appreciated) Favre and Sharpe. If Sharpe could have played in 95, maybe they win one or two more and win the #1 seed or go to Texas Stadium and instead of Favre fumbling and costing them the game, they score and put the game out of the reach of the Cowboys and win a Super Bowl. Then they are back to back champs in 97. Maybe if Sharpe is healthy and they have Robert Brooks and Antonio Freeman, they don’t get upset and they are triple world champions. And that would only be Sharpe’s 10th season! They could have won maybe another or two. Maybe if they keep winning, Mike Holmgren stays. It’s really had to say, but Sharpe staying healthy would have changed the entirety of the late 90s.

[@geegarcia7858]

Shannon Sharpe has admitted in past interviews that Sterling was a way better athlete than him. If injury didn't derail his career, who knows man... Green Bay might've had at least 1 more championship, at least I think so. At least he got a ring before having to tap out. Many never even get the chance.

I doubt anyone will read all or any of this, but I can't sleep and it'll feel personally satisfying albeit mostly pointless in the grand scheme of things to post. People hating on Calvin either pay attention only to stats and most likely didn't watch many of his games to see how much attention he took from the defense, resulting in opportunities and increased stats for other receivers, backs, and ends, or tend to forget that he was playing for the freaking Detroit Lions who in his last 2 seasons ranked among the bottom 5 in the league in rushing attempts and rushing yards, coming in dead last in yards gained and ypc in 2015. He experienced incompetent coaches with no offensive game plan more intricate than "lets hope Calvin has a good game or distracts the defense so someone else can" which came to a head with the Colts reject Caldwell who QB coached one of the best QBs ever and rode the coattails of Peytons statistical success every year following, somehow allowing the offense to underperform when it mattered most to a laughable postseason record during his QB mentoring tenure not including their SB season in 06, of 3-6, while having pretty solid pass catchers with Harrison, Reggie, Dallas, Edgerrin, Addai, hell even Stoakley and Collie could catch enough passes to warrant their 3rd spot on the depth charts. Their single Superbowl appearance came against possibly one of the worst starting QBs to make it that far maybe ever (Including Trent Difler (misspelled purposely because he was mean to me at a celebrity golf tournament of which I refuse to forget)) who managed one short TD, and then threw another one to the Colts to even out the score. That game would have looked way worse if Hester hadn't returned the kickoff for more than twice as many yards as Grossman passed for in the first 3 quarters. 118 of his 165 yards passing came in the 4th with series ends of, INT returned for TD, INT, Turnover on Downs, End of Regulation. It was so bad that 25% of his completions and just over 20% of his yards came on the last drive where they just made it past midfield as time expired. You must mean his last couple seasons in 2013, 14 and 15, when the Lions decided to get him a competent #2 receiver in Golden Tate in 2014 who jumped from #31 in Overall in yards and #46 in Total Receptions in 2013 with Seattle, to #6 in Receptions and #7 in overall yards with Stafford possesses a cannon, but has typically made two bad throws for every good one. Few more unnecessary stats, in 2013 the top 3 players in total receptions for the Lions after CJ were Reggie Bush, Joique Bell, and Brandon Pettigrew who combined for 148 receptions for 1,469 yards that year to Calvin's 1492 yards on 84 catches while also missing 2 games. He was 17th in receptions, 3rd in yards, netting 7 yards less than Antonio Brown despite playing in 2 fewer games, tied for 5th in receiving TDs and averaged slightly more than 106.6 yards per game which was second only to Josh Gordon's freak year. What's really crazy in 2015 his final season, he still ranked 11th in receptions but managed to open up the field for Golden Tate to rank 10th, and Theo Riddick to rank 21st overall combining for 170 receptions and over 1,500 yards. In his last season with 88 catches (11th) for 1,214 yards (10th) and 9 scores (T-14th), he had fairly similar stat lines to Fitz, A.J. Green, and Gronk, none of whom anyone would have considered to have had an offseason. I could write more but ugh, no more energy or mental concentration for semi-accurate statistical analysis. Great powers be with any who attempt to read this.

[@aramanon]

The most physically talented WR and RB in history both quit football rather than continue being a Lion. Sad. Sort it out!

[@kurapicrip1920]

Not true

[@samjohnson4626]

Yes and no. Barry wanted to win more than anyone he didn't care about stats he wanted the win. On top of that he hated the media if he played five more years and his last year says I'm retiring or his last year says it. The media would be all over him and like every legend would have the whole media circus farewell tour. He was classy and quiet, he tipped the ball to the ref after every TD and maybe first down or down and he tries to have minimal media before, during and after each game. Lions back then weren't going to win it all and over 20 years later still isn't close. Lions need him, Lane and Megatron to be playing it's too bad all three couldn't be on this team they'd easily be a dynasty heck berry and Lane or lane and megatron would be with this team. They need a corner and WR or RB. Yeah they got all three, but they need depth a SB team has depth which is why the lions never and may never win a Lombardi.

However, Jim Brown averaged over 5 yards a carry and 104+yds per game for his entire career. Only Sanders comes close in yards per game. Jim Brown was rushing for 1500 and once for 1863 yds in 14 game seasons on mud fields. This man rushed for 1527 yards at 6 yards per carry in the late 50's IN 12 GAMES!!!!! That's a 2000+ yard season today. The 1863 season would have been at least 2150 yards if the season were 16 games in that year. Jim Brown was a BEAST!!!

Elway should be #1 on this list. A list about finishing your career in style. What is bigger than going out super bowl mvp?

That doesn't make you number 1. That was the only thing impressive about his season. If you paid attention, he also missed 4 regular season games and the reason the Broncos were successful on offense that year was because of Terrell Davis' 2,000 yard season not Elway. Since you seemingly didn't pay attention, Jim Brown went out winning the league MVP and was unanimously considered the greatest player in the history of the NFL at the time, and obviously still in his prime being still considered the best player in the league when he retired. Winning a Super Bowl MVP is nice, but it's one game. Larry Brown & Desmond Howard have Super Bowl MVPs too. This is about walkoff seasons, and had it not been for the Super Bowl MVP, Elway wouldn't even be in consideration for the list at all. That doesn't bump you up from not even belonging in the conversation to number 1.

Prolly 8-9 Pro Bowler, 4-5x first team 2X second team, 5-6x receiving leader, 3-4 TD leader, 2-3x Receiving yd leader, and a SB champion.

Winning defensive player of the month and being in the running for defensive player of the year at 39 years old!!! Thats super impressive at 39! Leading team in tackles as he had done since green bay. Playing nickel, free, strong and weakside LB. Being a great blitzer dude had it all. Patrick Willis could also be up there although he was still young.

[@scazermazz]

Its been over 20 years and I still tear up over Jerome Brown. He WAS Philly

[@frankpfaff9675]

Barry had 3 to 4 good years left in him. A guy in my fantasy league that year drafted him in the last round and kept him all season just in case he came back even for 1 game.

[@randumo24]

Nah, that's actually highly unlikely. What you have to realize is that RBs like Barry who rely on evasion drop off much more quickly once they lose any athleticism. He made a living off of making tacklers miss & juking out guys. Once he lost a step, it would have been bad for him.

[@bisquik3006]

Nice to see Sterling Sharpe get some credit. He is too often overlooked.

[@TheForeverRanger]

Jim Brown could suit up today and rush for 1200 yards. The man has records that have only been sniffed once or twice. Jamaal Charles was one carry from topping his single season YPC record.

[@RG2Highlights]

ForeverRanger 91 He might need a cane and an incredible all pro line just to rush for 100 yards

[@Jakieboy808]

You got me laughing hard with this comment LOL

[@bringbackthesonics2097]

That's not true, he probably could easily run or walk in this instance for more then 3000 yards in a season due to no one wanting to hit him. lol

[@Gungho73]

He may have been bigger Lycan, but he was absurdly productive and could've played in any era due to his great size, speed, and slipperyness. Nothing says he couldn't be productive in todays era, especially as linebackers/safeties get smaller and focus on the passing game. He'd eat people up if you took young Brown back to this time.

Jim Brown deserves the No.1 spot with 1544 yards in 14 games and leading his team to the NFL championship game albeit losing to the Packers. Incidentally the second most yards in a walkoff year was Robert Smith with 1521 yards rushing for the Vikings.

[@Destino2493]

Part of what makes players legends is that they leave us wanting more

[@michaelhession2105]

It still baffles me that Ray Lewis didn't make this list. If you look at it, you'll say he wasn't as dominant as the others that are on this list. But that doesn't even begin to tell the story. Just like with Van Brocklin in Philadelphia, Ray made it clear that this was going to be it for him. And everyone on that team especially Joe Flacco rallied around him because they desperately wanted to send him out as a champion. And when that Ravens team got further and further into the playoffs, the opponent didn't matter. This was the only team to ever beat Tom Brady and Peyton Manning in a single postseason. No one beats both Brady and Manning, especially on the road in the playoffs, this is the team that does it because Ray had them believing that they could get to the Super Bowl. And once they got to New Orleans, they weren't going to be denied. That is one of the greatest sports stories ever told, and the fact that it isn't in the Top 10, even though you have Norm Van Brocklin doing the same thing in Philly is a crime.

With Barry, I always say that it’s great that he chose to go out on his own terms as one of the top running backs in the league and one of the GOATS of that era. Instead of the punishments of the game telling him to retire. But still very sad to see him go, he was the man back in those days. :)

[@ClericChris]

Barry is the RB GOAT. If you think a running back should be a wide receiver in the backfield than he might not be, but for pure runner Barry is king.

[@bgorski6937]

As a Packers fan I was absolutely ecstatic when Barry retired. I also couldn’t stand Herman Moore.

Welcome to Detroit where the city loves their players more than the team they play for. Thanks Barry thanks Megatron I respect both of you for calling it when you did. Im happy you guys can still walk and have no brain damage enjoy your life boys you both gave us more than we could ever imagine. Thank you and thank you for staying in Detroit after retiring there will always be a home for you in Detroit.

Roger Staubach should be on lists for any all time NFL

[@jeffw1267]

I think it's important to point out that Hutson was a WR and a kicker AND a defensive player. He intercepted 30 passes in his NFL career. Also, he had only one fumble in 10 seasons. Jerry Rice fumbled 27 times though in fairness, his career was twice as long.

Jim Brown literally had both guards, a tackle, a tight end, and a receiver blocking for him on that run. Just like the Cowboys line for Emmitt Smith.

[@mattboggs6304]

I feel like they really disrespected John Elway by having his segment tainted with Seinfeld comparisons and that weird German dude. He probably also should have been higher on the list. I was a 49ers and Montana fan, but I'm not going to lie, it felt really good seeing Elway win 2 Super Bowls at the end of his career.

Probably because Manning's last year he was a reanimated corpse.

When Barry Sanders left football we were in shock. I'm glad we didn't see a declining Barry just a HIGHLIGHT REEL. If Detroit actually wanted to win Barry would have stayed. His heart just wasn't in it anymore. Good for him.

[@emmaleighwurzdorf233]

The focus on stats in this video led to one of the greatest final seasons being left off. Jerome Bettis belongs in the top 3, at least. There is no way you can say that Warner or Barber had a better final season. Hollywood couldn’t have WRITTEN a better final season for the Bus. Sure he was a third down back which meant his stats aren’t crazy, but there’s more than numbers when you’re looking at a last ride season. What is more impressive than making your retirement announcement on the Super Bowl stage in your hometown?

[@lucyfir2166]

My guy he literally almost cost them the season and anyone can retire at the superbowl. Doesn't make it a great farewell season

[@RossIsFine]

Barry Sanders is the greatest RB ever. Had he had the cowboys offensive line, the record would be doubled what it is now.

[@samb7588]

Don’t really understand how Jerome Bettis isn’t on this list. Comes out of retirement to win a Super Bowl as the sixth seed IN HIS HOMETOWN. He didn’t put up huge stats. But he was the heartbeat of that steelers team. His play of running over Brian Urachler set the tone for the rest of the season.

[@DavidLee-ll9vq]

I thought I missed The bus on this list but they just screwed up

[@JustShootin]

I'm not sure what year this was produced, but if it was after 2012 they dropped the ball huge, how Ray Lewis is not on the list is beyond me. He comes back from injury gets to the Super Bowl and ends on a defensive stand. Certainly more deserving than Sterling Sharpe. Then again there is only one defensive player on the list which is typical.

[@johnstebbins24]

As a Browns fan, I had grounds to be objective when I argue that John Elway should've been #1. He defended his championship from the previous season and was SB MVP. There is no higher "on top" you can leave on. And given the initial peaks of his career followed by the valley in between them, the narrative of his tenure in the pros leave nothing to be accomplished.

[@jbfarley]

Subjective, kid, never objective

[@randumo24]

He has no business being number 1. Other people have won championships in their final seasons, and he was not even close to the primary reason they made the Super Bowl. Without Terrell Davis, they don't even come close. It would be laughable to give a guy who missed 4 games and didn't even put up special numbers in the games he did play in the regular season the number 1 spot.

[@EinTeufelskreis]

I'm sorry, but Elway has to be Top-3. Nothing against Sharpe or van Brocklin, but one of the best QBs ever in one of the best seasons ever ending with a SB ring and SB MVP.

[@mikeyoungblood1642]

John Elway in 1998 was not the John Elway we all think of. He was broken down & put up sub-par numbers for him. He had a great year because he had a 2,000 yard RB, a HOF Tight End, and a great o-line. Van Brocklin did more with less than Elway and hence he is deserving of being higher on the list than Elway

[@Tropicool]

Donald Driver, Brett Favre, Tony Gonzalez, Ray Lewis, Calvin Johnson, and Sean Taylor

Barry's retirement was just as shocking to me as Michael Jordan's first retirement in 1993. Both were very unexpected. Jordan would eventually come back but still when he walked away you couldn't believe it. Jordan and Sanders were at the top of their athletic primes.
