Not to be a contrarian, but I'd choose Stabler. Guy had ice water in his veins. Loved the way he so effortlessly flung the ball. Tough for me to choose between those Bay area boys, Montana and Stabler.

Yeah he never really got his due not sure why. Maybe the renegade personality, quite the opposite of Staubach.

Seeing all the great names everyone has already posted above, mine looks like a bit of a let down. But for me it was the Bills QB, Joe Ferguson. OJ had just left and we were excited to see what he could do. He had a couple of good seasons just before and things were looking good for the Bills. He finally got us into the playoffs, and played the game with a severely sprained ankle.

All-time great? No, but still my favorite player of all time.

And a former Razorback QB near and dear to my heart. His time at Arkansas was before my time, but he is still held in high regard.

Hands down, it's Staubach. I collect a lot of different stuff but the one part of my collection that I'm truly attached to is my Staubach stuff.

Mean Joe Greene. I grew up a Steeler fan (in Virginia amongst many Redskins fans) and Joe was the greatest Steeler of them all.

I've gotten to meet him a couple of times, the first in the late '70s. He's the last of the great Steel Curtain DL still with us.

"Gee, thanks, Joe." I was always so jealous of that kid.

No doubt on who this is for me. Easy choice because I grew watching him and was always amazed at what he could do despite the critics saying he would never make it as a Pro. He was undersized, did not have a huge arm but had a way about him. I arguable consider him the best scrambler ever. He had this way of finding a way to win kinda like Captain Kirk always found a way to stay alive. I would like to know how many miles he scrambled? When he retired he had every major passing record which all have since been broken.

Barry Sanders, the man who could make a two yard gain look like the greatest play of your life. I really miss those Sundays.

As long as the game was on turf. All the pundits rank him ahead of Smith, and perhaps rightly so, but from what I saw I give a slight edge to Emmitt as the best back of that era. Of course if Sanders had played past 30 his stats would be even more impressive, he racked up some massive yardage in only 10 years.

Peter if Sanders had run behind that huge Dallas line he may have had 20,000 yards.

Growing up in San Diego in the 1970s, my favorite player then, and still to this day, is Dan Fouts.

Agreed and credit to Emmitt for admitting as much several times.
