This will definitely be a one-sided poll.

Jim Brown, in his nine seasons with the Browns, is simply unbelievable. Every season he reached the Pro Bowl. Brown was also a three-time NFL MVP, a remarkable eight rushing yard titles, five times he lead the NFL in rushing touchdowns, and won an NFL Championship in 1964.

Frank Gore's still got a little bit of fire in him, but I can his career end in a couple of years.

Easy Jim Brown. Gore is about as good a teamate as you can ask for, but Jim Brown is Mt. Rushmore type.
