Found it interesting that Bart Starr was known for taking deep shots when it was 3rd and 1. I wonder how of the Bart lovers who complain about Aaron Rodgers doing the same thing realize that.

Far from the same thing.

I'm shocked that Paul Hornung wasn't on that list. I'm gonna limit this to Packers since I started following the team about 1954. Obviously Don Hutson should be on the list, and probably several others who I only heard of by reputation, but whatever. The basis of my choices is what they meant to the team winning games - difference makers. I tended to discount shortness of career with the Packers as a factor.

1. Aaron Rodgers

2. Brett Favre

3. Bart Starr

4. Ray Nitschke

5. Reggie White

6. Paul Hornung

7. Jim Taylor

8. Willie Davis

9. Herb Adderley

10. Forest Gregg

Man, this is hard to limit it to ten. Jerry Kramer should be in there, maybe several WRs, maybe Ted Hendricks, Willie Wood, Clay Matthews, Lynn Dickey, Tobin Rote, etc.

I should have included Reggie.

I'm not even going to attempt a list of this sort. Its like trying to find the 10 best pennies that make up a dollar, there an awful lot of them that are pretty damned equal.

Of the original list Lofton is the one that surprises me most. Not that he wasn't great and doesn't deserve it and he is one of my all time favorite players as well, its just that so many good players were left off, the two Willies come to mind since they were both mentioned in subsequent posts.

You could probably extend this to the top 20 or 25 and even the guys at the bottom of that list would have arguments for the top 10.

1.Don Hutson-what he did in his era makes Rice look average and Hutson played both ways
2.Forrest Gregg-I'll go with Lombardi saying he's the best player he ever coached
3.Ray Nitschke-One of the 2-3 best middle LBs ever
4.Reggie White-Considering his entire body of work with Pack time
5.Herb adderley-Shut down corner, threat to intercept with big return, and outstanding tackler
6.Bart-Couldn't decide, one won more championships one much more talented
6.Brett
8.Jim Taylor-If not for Jim Brown,Taylor would have been in a class by himself
9.Willie Wood-Played the run and pass equally well and returned punts leading the league
10.Willie Davis-If not for Gino Marchetti(sp) would have been the top DE in his day

Coach- Lombardi-Best ever

Honorable Mention-Henry Jodan, Jerry Kramer, Gale Gillingham, James Lofton, Sterling Sharpe, Paul Hornung, Johnny Blood

Why is Jerry Kramer not in the Hall of Fame?

It might be fun to do a top 5 at each position.

I don't know how you narrow it down to 10 total players.
Fan Shout

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : What? Why? Huh?
beast (19-Nov) : I wonder if the Packers might to try to bring Douglas in through Milt Hendrickson/Ravens connections
Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : The Jets fired Joe Douglas, per sources
packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : Jets are a mess......
Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Pretty sure Jets fired their scouting staff and just pluck former Packers.
Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Jets sign Anders Carlson to their 53.
Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : When you cycle the weeks, the total over remains for season. But you get your W/L for that selected week. Confusing.
packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : the total and percentage are the same as the previous weeks
packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : the total and percentage are the same as the previous weeks
packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : the totals are accurate..nrvrtmind
Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : I don't follow what you are saying. The totals are not the same as last week.
packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : ok so then wht are the totals the same as last week?
Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : NFL Pick'em is auto updated when NFL Scores tab is clicked
Martha Careful (19-Nov) : The offense was OK. Let's not forget the Bear defense is very very good.
packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : Who updates the leaderboard on NFLPickem?
beast (19-Nov) : Has the Packers offense been worse since the former Jets coach joined the Packers?
Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Offense gets his ass in gear, this could be good.
Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Backup QB helped with three wins. Special Teams contributed to three wins.
bboystyle (18-Nov) : Lions played outside thats why. They scored 16 and 17 in the only 2 outside games this year
Zero2Cool (18-Nov) : The rest of the NFL is catching up to Packers ... kicking is an issue throughout league
packerfanoutwest (18-Nov) : Packers DL Kenny Clark: We knew 'we were going to block' Bears' game-winning field goal attempt
Zero2Cool (18-Nov) : Lions seem to be throttling everyone, but only (only) got 24 lol maybe the rain is why
Zero2Cool (18-Nov) : Packers vs Lions game doesn't seem so bad.
beast (18-Nov) : Dennis Green "They are what we thought they were, and we let them off the hook!"
Martha Careful (17-Nov) : comment of the day Z2Cool "Bears better than we want to admit. Packers worse than we think. It's facts."
Mucky Tundra (17-Nov) : my worst case scenario: Bears fix their oline and get a coach like Johnson from the Lions and his scheme
Zero2Cool (17-Nov) : Bears get OL fixed amd we might have a problem
buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : Pretty sure they already have scouting reports on guys who aren't even starting for their college team. The future is now for me.
buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : I tend to let Gute and Co. Worry about the future.
beast (17-Nov) : That's great news and Packers need to keep upgrading their OL, DL and DBs this off-season, so missing one guy doesn't kill them
beast (17-Nov) : That's great news and Packers need to keep upgrading their OL, DL and DBs this off-season, so missing one guy doesn't kill them
buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : Jaire and Evans Williams are both ACTIVE! Good news.
Martha Careful (17-Nov) : The badgers really need to change the whole offensive scheme. No draws no screens plus the quarterback is marginal

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : chop block
Martha Careful (17-Nov) : there was a very questionable job Block call that upon viewing replay was very borderline
