Wait Phicin...
According to your own rules, you should not include Brown in your choices.
He never rushed for 2000yds.
He only has 12,000 career rushing yards while Emmitt Smith has over 18,000, and his 106 TDs falls WAY short of Smith's 164.
We need to draw a line.....

No one can deny what Brown was or did in that time period. Unitas was a great QB, but not special, and has no stats comparable to what is being done today. To me it is not a legitimate argument.

You ever going to pick a 4th
One potato, two potato, three potato, four....
Honestly, if not for the injuries the last two years, I was almost ready to put AP up there.You ever going to pick a 4th
I am torn, Emmit is a great choice, but I want to lean instead to Curtis Martin. So I guess #4 for me is Martin.
U just like being different don't ya
This is in no way a knock on Martin....but one of the best 4 backs of all time ???
He was a poor man's Emmitt Smith, so IMO if you go that route, you go with Emmitt......just my .02

Give me the Juice!
That was well after he toted the ball in the NFL you know.
But if you're going to enforce a morality rule about crimes after careers you must kick Jim Brown off of your mountain as well. He became a woman beater.
Far cry from a killer......they don't have to be a saint, but double murder and I am looking elsewhere for my Mt. Running Men......too many talented runners in the history if the NFL to give him any more acknowledgement than he has already had
So beating multiple women is okay but being found innocent of murder is not? Strange criteria that you have for your mountain Miller, not as strange as baseball and their HOF but strange non-the-less. Tugging your chain here a little bit but truthfully now I'd say if OJ isn't eligible then Brown shouldn't be either. I can't condone beating women though I still maintain that what happened after their careers has no baring what so ever on how great of a RB they were.
