Vince Ferrygumball led them to slaughter by the Steel Curtain.
Overall gotta say below average if your top 2 are Van Brocklin and Warner, right? SB and great commercial or not, I can't identify Stafford as a Ram yet.

Ken Houston and Paul Krause are 2 HOF safeties that played for Redskins. Sean Taylor was another great safety.

Absolutely loved Kenny Houston - and hated him at the same time!
You forgot the one of the absolute best REDSKINS of all - Pat Fischer!
Krause is more identified with the Vikes.

Miami has a sneaky deep OL list. The top 3 for the Raiders is hard to beat. It’s definitely quantity/quality argument like WR.
I forgot about Larry Little. Bad arse.
Raiders TE: Casper, Christensen. (great receiver - shite announcer)
You saying Biletnikoff, Branch, and Brown?

Looking at your list, the Raiders should have more SB titles.

Though until 1985 they had the highest winningest % of all teams in all of sports despite only 3 Lombardis.

But they dominate your list at:

1) O-line
2) Defensive Back
3) Punting

That's control the ball recipe football.

Noiice.
I'll go with Wilson & HB. He's all time legit - made first team NFL all decade.
I remember my Dad cursing Wilson every time the Cardinals were on no matter who they were playing.

Also competitive with the very best at TE: Casper/Christensen. (Waller, with time)
Who else for all timers, though?
Stabler
Allen (hard to include Bo, as great as he was)
Howie Long.
Hendricks.
Millen? No.
Alzado? No.
Tatum and Atkinson.
Biletnikoff, Branch, Brown.

Reminds me of KC LBers: Willie Lanier MLB, Derrick Thomas Jim Lynch, EJ Holub. (I saw somewhere that Buck Buchanan was listed at LB but I always thought of him as a DE.)

They ran into the 72-73 Dolphins and the 74-79 Steelers. And Madden couldn’t win big games against Shula and Noll.

The only reason they even won the 76 title was because they played the Steelers in the AFCCG without Franco Harris and Rocky Bleier. I think their only win against Miami was the Sea of Hands.

Madden is a lot like Dungy. Great regular season coach but there was usually a better team/coach blocking his path.

If you are talking Raiders TE’s then you have to include Raymond Chester.

The AFC was just so frickin' stacked in the 70's.

From 1967 to 1976, the Raiders won 82% of their games!

But only 1 Super Bowl win. They were the 90s Atlanta Braves of football...and robbed by officials.
