Your franchise's Mt. Rushmore

[hive17]

I guess I'll do Green Bay too

Favre
Starr
Lombardi
Lambeau

With the older teams, you should be required to list the great coaches, so Chicago MUST put Halas up there.

Patriots:

Tom Brady, Stanley Morgan, Troy Brown, Adam Vinatieri (a kicker? are you serious? well he was clutch damnit)

This was pretty tough. Could've also put: Drew Bledsoe, Curtis Martin, Ty Law, Ben Coates, Randy Moss, John Hannah, Wes Welker, Andre Tippett, Mike Haynes, Teddy Bruschi

I feel the 3 of the 4 I picked will not be there in 5 years though. I think Welker will eventually replace Morgan or Brown.

 

[alabamalongsnake]

These best represent the Lions history:

Andre Ware
Joey Harrington
Charles Rogers
Mike Williams

Anyone good is an anomaly and doesn't deserve to be etched in stone, and forever associated with the Lions.

after the early start you might want to consider Stafford. he's done as well as any other QB.

I think John Hannah over any non-Brady player. He was, afterall, the best offensive lineman of all-time. Two different all-decade teams. He defined the position. Hey, if you are going to put a kicker on, you can surely put an o-lineman on!

Yeah I seriously considered it. If there was a 5th spot, it probably would be him. I almost put him over Vinatieri but Hannah's leg didn't win us two Super Bowls.

Raiders:

Robert Gallery, JaMarcus Russell, Darius Heyward-Bey, Al Davis

[Seiya]

Chargers has to be
LT, Alworth, Seau and Winslow, with Fouts barely missing out.

There is no New England Patriots today if not for Drew Bledsoe, he has to be there over anyone including Brady I would say. My list would be Brady, Bledsoe, Tippett, and Hannah. If we go beyond players, then Brady, Bledsoe, Kraft, and Belichick.

I'll stress it again, the Patriots are in St Louis without Drew Bledsoe reviving the football fanbase in NE. Brady may be a slight tick ahead of him, but if not for his success Brady would have played elsewhere.

That's why my votes would be the four players in Patriots History that should be or are in the NFL Hall of Fame.

 

[TNP777]

Rams - under consideration: Van Brocklin, Hirsch, Waterfield, Deacon Jones, Merlin Olsen, Tom Mack, Henry Ellard, Jack Youngblood, Warner, Faulk, Isaac Bruce, Dickerson, Holt, Jackie Slater

I'll go with Jack Youngblood, Deacon Jones, Bruce and Faulk. I'd love to put 'em all on there - in my mind they're all deserving. A few of them may be more deserving than Youngblood, but it's my list, and he's the reason I became a Rams fan.

edit: changed my mind. Dickerson is out, Bruce is in.

 

[chief7575]

Redskins:

Baugh, Riggins, Monk, Green. The Hogs deserve their own mountain or edifice.

 

[MJB14]

Chargers:

Alworth, Fouts, Seau, Tomlinson

You certainly know better than I. I'm strictly speaking from a fan in PA that's never been to a Patriots game

Bledsoe is STILL my all-time favorite Patriot. He is who got me liking the Patriots. I still remember the day and how pissed I was that Brady took his job. And I will forever remember the AFC Championship game that he started to take us to our first Super Bowl win.

I supposed I was thinking more statistically when picking the four that I did. If it was strictly sentimental reasons, Bledsoe would've been the first one I chose.

 

[Slette]

Vikes: Tarkenton, Carter, Randle, AP

This was tougher than I thought, and I know AP probably doesn't belong on there just yet, but no one can argue what he has meant to this franchise the past five years.
