No RBs but they don't need to be mentioned as we know who they are:

Steve Sewell, Gaston Green, and Rod Bernstine

I laughed

But who will guard the guards themselves?

Am I supposed to take you seriously with a moniker like that? ;-)

"C" is for Championship...that's good enough for meeeee!!!

Oops - forgot that pesky RB position

Pretty strong position too.

Any of you Nuggets fans? Blazers will be improved this year, maybe they’ll meet in Western Conference Championship. Anyone but the Lakers!

I'll take that. (I think the whole Northwest Division is on the rise, a lot of youth in it.)

Pesky Lakers.

Looks like you've done some homework

That’s a great 53 man all time compilation. Good to see you didn’t forget what all time connotates….

I love the footage I’ve seen of the latter here, but I’m hopin’ Alphonso Smith breaks Goose’s interception record his rookie year (no offense intended of course to Mr. Gonsoulin, it’s a team thing eh)….

Thanks for the post

First team to three consecutive SB wins!!!! and then some, right? I think four and we oughtta let someone else have a fair shot : )

The fact that Bailey is seen as a sure-fire Hall of Famer, and still hasn't broken that record is a testament to Goose.

Impressive! And really pretty darn good in my book.

I am inpressed!

Either you are an old fart like me or you have done a ton of resarch. About the only difference i have is that I would stick the Goose in with Atwater. Goose was the Brian Dawkins of the early sixties. We were lucky to have him.

Thanks for the pats on the back

Not too much of an old fart, but getting there. I’m 37, but have been a huge football fan since I was 5 or 6. That was right about when the ’77 Broncos and Orange Crush were prominent.

A couple teams I did this for had a bunch of real jerks responding, so I appreciate the kudos. Goose does have some really impressive stats. Do you all think he should start with Atwater?
