It's tough to argue Bo v Herschel. Bo had more foot speed but Herschel was a beast and could run nearly step for step w/ Bo. With that being said it would be tough to argue that Cam Newton wasn't the "best" player of all time either ?


For me it was either Cam Newton or Michael Vick.

I went with Vick, but it was a close call. As I see it, even Cam Newton couldn't have done what Vick did against FSU in the BCSCG game -- which is single-fricking-handedly keep a highly highly overmatched team in the game.

This choice is actually completely reasonable. JFF, imho, is THAT good.

Reggie Bush. One of the best offensive weapons ever.

Cam or Herschel. Their teams would've been average without them.

Same here. As good as Frazier was at Nebraska, they still were a top 5 team without him in 96 and 97.

Tim Tebow for me.

I cant support Cam Newton in anything. Its a deal we made before the 2010 Iron Bowl.
