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
beast (11h) : Also why do both NYC teams have absolutely horrible OL for over a decade?
beast (11h) : I wonder why the Jets always hire defensive coaches to be head coach
Zero2Cool (21h) : Still HC positions available out there. I wonder if Hafley pops up for one
Zero2Cool (21h) : Trent Baalke is out as the Jaguars GM.
dfosterf (23h) : Jeff Hafley would have been a better choice, fortunately they don't know that. Someone will figure that out next off season
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Aaron Glenn Planning To Take Jets HC Job
dfosterf (22-Jan) : Martha- C'est mon boulot! 😁
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Thank you
wpr (22-Jan) : Z, glad you are feeling better.
wpr (22-Jan) : My son and D-I-L work for UM. It's a way to pick on them.
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Thank you. I rarely get sick, and even more rarely sick to the point I can't work.
wpr (22-Jan) : Beast- back to yesterday, I CAN say OSU your have been Michigan IF the odds of making the playoffs were more urgent.
dfosterf (22-Jan) : Glad to hear you are feeling a bit better.
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : I've been near death ill last several days, finally feel less dead and site issues.
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : It is a big deal. This host is having issues. It's frustrating.
Martha Careful (22-Jan) : just kidding...it was down
Martha Careful (22-Jan) : you were blocked yesterday, due to a a recalcitrant demeanor yesterday in the penalty box for a recalcitrant demeanor
dfosterf (22-Jan) : Was that site shutdown on your end or mine? No big deal, just curious
beast (21-Jan) : That way teams like Indiana and SMU don't make the conference championships by simply avoiding all the other good teams in their own confere
beast (21-Jan) : Also, with these "Super Conferences" instead of a single conference champion, have 4 teams make a Conference playoffs.
beast (21-Jan) : Also in college football, is a bye week a good or bad thing?
Martha Careful (21-Jan) : The tournament format was fine. Seeding could use some work.
beast (21-Jan) : You can't assume Ohio State would of won the Michigan game...
beast (21-Jan) : Rankings were 1) Oregon 2) Georgia 3) Texas 4) Penn State 5) Notre Dame 6) Ohio State, none of the rest mattered
wpr (21-Jan) : Texas, ND and OSU would have been fighting for the final 2 slots.
wpr (21-Jan) : Oregon and Georgia were locks. Without the luxury of extra playoff berths, Ohios St would have been more focused on Michigan game.
wpr (21-Jan) : Zero, no. If there were only 4 teams Ohio State would have been one of them. Boise St and ASU would not have been selected.
Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : So that was 7 vs 8, that means in BCS they never would made it?
Martha Careful (21-Jan) : A great game. Give ND credit for coming back, although I am please with the outcome.
Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : FG to make it academic
Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : and there's the dagger

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : ooooooooohhhhhh he missed!
Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Ooooo that completion makes things VERY interesting
Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Game not over yet
beast (21-Jan) : Oh yeah, Georgia starting quarterback season ending elbow injury
beast (21-Jan) : Sadly something happened to Georgia... they should be playing in this game against Ohio State
beast (21-Jan) : I thought Ohio State and Texas were both better than Notre Dame & Penn State
Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Notre Lame getting rolled
Martha Careful (21-Jan) : Ohio State just got punched in the gut. Lets see how they respond
Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Notre Lame vs the Luckeyes, bleh
Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Oh snap!!!
Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : Even Stevie Wonder can see that.
Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : Nah, you see Lions OC leaving to be HC of Bears is directly related to Packers.
Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : ohhhhhhh Zero is in TROUBLE
packerfanoutwest (21-Jan) : Zero, per your orders, check Bearshome, not packershome
Zero2Cool (20-Jan) : Then he'll land with another team and flourish.
Zero2Cool (20-Jan) : Ben going to Bears. He'll be out in 3 years.
