Troy Brown in his prime. That was a Football player.

You needed a 1st down. Throw it to Troy and he'll catch it. Over the middle, to the side lines? No Problem.
Run a reverse? No Problem.
You have a an injury to a Defensive Back? Call on Troy, he'll play both sides of the ball.
Need someone to return kicks or punts? Hey Troy get your A$$ over here!

Just an all around fantastic football player. Never flashy and never got the press he deserved at times. But he got the job done.

I love Troy Polamalu, I think he is a better Safety than Ed, just that my Homerism card forbids me to put his name next to Reeds

Understandable. And now that there is a chance that we are playing the Ravens next week, there is no way you will hear me say Reed should've been MVP :oldrazz:

Still, Troy is all class. Him and Hines Ward are what every player in the NFL should aspire to be.

Peyton Manning, Clinton Portis, Edgerrin James, Junior Seau, Brian Dawkins (the only good thing about the Eagles), Ray Lewis, Troy Polamalu, Derrick Brooks, Rodney Harrison, Hines Ward

And of course all the guys I played high school ball with. DeShuan Foster with the 49ers, Chris Chester with the Ravens, Sam Baker with the Falcons (was my back up during my senior year in high school), Matt McCoy with the Buccaneers & Frostee Rucker with the Bengals. And I can't forget Beau Bell with the Browns, who I watched played high school ball. Easily the hardest hitter to come out of my high school.

Peyton Manning, Emmitt Smith (the Player not the "analyst"), Troy Palamalu, T.J. Houshmandzadeh, Jerry Rice, Brett Favre, Barry Sanders, Drew Pearson, Hines Ward, Anquan Boldin, and Reggie White. To name a few.

Who is Keith Rivers?

He was Cincinnati's #1 draft pick out of USC and was having a pro bowl season before his injury, he'll be a important part of Cincy's defense for years to come.

Well I have to break it down to positions...
The QB-and these are the top of the heap.

Jim Harbaugh is still my favorite-Go Stanford
Phil Simms and that Giants team is what made me a football fanatic-he was the best

RunningBacks - it don't get no betta than Barry, best of our generation.
Shout out to Edgerin James too

The Defense-before L.T. any defense was just there to hold the spot til the offense got back on the field. He was than dude-blown half out of his mind half the time, but as a player none tops.

Then that Miami Hurricanne class that had freakin STARS commin out everywhere...'Bruce' Reggie Wayne, CPO, Ed REED ED REED, Edge on an on.
