For Louisiana:



quote:

Raised in New Orleans, Louisiana, Peyton eschewed Ole Miss (Archie’s alma mater) to play his college ball at the University of Tennessee. Selected No. 1 overall by the Colts in 1998, Manning began his illustrious career in Indianapolis. As the all-time leader in passing yards and touchdowns, Manning made Louisiana proud with his Hall of Fame career.

They picked Jerry Rice for Mississippi. I probably would’ve went with Walter Payton, but solid pick nonetheless.

Favre was a baller, but he isn’t quite Rice or Payton.

You can make an argument that Rice is the best WR of all time.

You can make an argument that Payton is the best RB of all time.

You cannot make an argument that Favre is the best QB of all time.

If we are talking pure Athlete, Marshal Faulk, Ed Reed, Kordell Stewart, Kevin Faulk, etc, etc, etc is more athletic than Peyton.

Not taking away from his greatness as a QB, but he isn't as athletic as a lot of other people from Louisiana.

Why do you keep posting click bait articles from that site?

Are you spamming the board with your own shitty click bait site?

I would say Marshall Faulk is the best athlete, but a case could be made for Peyton Manning.
