Just lasting 20 years is fucking amazing. I wonder if he'll last as long as Farve did?
My favorite QB is Joe Montana, followed immediately by Steve Young. The greatest wide receiver ever was Jerry Rice. The Montana/Rice combo was a delight to watch.
Joe Montana was pretty damned good. Jerry Rice too.
I think Montana may have rivaled Brady - had he not gotten hurt. He was that good.
And, Rice wasn't just 'pretty damned good', he was 'straight up fucking awesome!'
I admit my bias!
I'm a huge Jerry Rice fan. I even own one of his helmets (signed and certificate of authenticity) and have his rookie card in a neat plastic case/stand kinda thing. I've got a couple of his jerseys as well. They're all 'decorations' in my game room.
Yeah, Rice was basically the best to ever play his position, at least one of the best ever. There is no doubt about that. But the area I live in the best WR ever, hands down, was Don Hutson. At least statistically compared to his peers there is no comparison. But then again, nobody I know ever got to see him play as his last season was 1944. LoL Around here all the best players on the Packers teams are touted as the best in the league
