Jerry Rice is the indisputable greatest WR


QB, the most important position. can be argued between quite a few players. It's really too hard to name a greatest ever in the sport.

While not the famous player, I like to think the name that is synonymous with football is Lombardi, considering the weight that it carries.

Johnny Unitas.

Edit: lots of youth in this thread when they don't know who revolutionized the game. And it wasn't Rice.

I don't think you can pick one for football. You can for some positions like we know Rice is the best WR and then you'd have a battle for QB with players like Montana, Unitas, etc and same for RB's with Brown, Sanders, etc. But no way can you just pick the 1 face of football.

Oh and GTFO with this Austin bullshite. Hogan brought wrestling into everyone's living rooms. He carried it for 2 different generations. I haven't watched that shite in years, but Hogan will always be remembered as the man. Flair is above Austin too.
