Curry has no chance. He could be a Hall-of-Famer, but he doesn't have the dominant type of game to be basketball GOAT. Same with Wilson. Brady pretty much defeated Manning this year. I think even though Manning is close, he pretty much has no chance.

Manning being dominant and winning another Super Bowl would make it interesting.
List is solid at the top, but Russell fuggin Wilson?
Rodgers is the guy that I think has the best shot that already isn't considered top 5 all time. He plays QB better than anyone ever IMO. He just needs the career to last and another championship or two.

The reason I say Wilson is because of the bill Russell argument. He is in an ideal situation to pick up a couple of rings early and then improve as a player and finish his career leading his teams to rings. Any quarterback with 6 or more rings would be considered the GOAT by many people, and that number is not all that rediculous for Wilson.

That number is a ridiculous as your spelling of the word. He has ONE right now. ONE. And it's the NFL. The Seahawks won't be able to pay all of these guys.

Does soccer count because then it's obviously Messi.

Pele is consensus best. Messi on the hunt if he can stay healthy.
