Create a five man offensive skill position team

[ChicagoIrish]

Peyton Manning
Cris Carter
Michael Irvin
Jim Brown
Dave Casper

 

[ChicagoIrish]

QB-Johnny Unitas
WR-Bob Hayes
WR-Fred Biletnitkoff
RB-Billy Sims
TE-Kellen Winslow SR

some of you might have to look up these guys

I almost took Biletnitkoff but decided to take Irvin's size

 

[The Derski]

Unitas and Winslow could excel in today's game

I do think picking only older players is a huge mistake, though. The game is hyper competitive right now

Agreed. Players today are bigger, stronger, faster, better. Plain and simple.

 

[Bulldog]

Joe Montana
Jerry Rice
Lance Alworth
Jim Brown
Gronk

 

[Steelboy84]

Aaron Rodgers
Jerry Rice
Andre Johnson
Marshall Faulk
Tony Gonzalez

Lots of points there

 

[SteelersPride]

QB- John Elway
Wr-Moss
Wr-megatron
Rb-Payton
TE-Gates

Yeah. Is basically planning for how bad you're going to get beat.

Unless it's cold out, then you win.

Agreed. Players today are bigger, stronger, faster, better. Plain and simple.

For the most part yes but ask any current defensive player would they rather tackle Earl Campbell in his prime or any current day running back.
It was like trying to tackle a fast tractor.

I think in this exercise, it's only fair to assume every player would have grown up and played under the same circumstances. I mean you can't just take an older player (and his leather helmet) and plop him into today's game.

1,300 rec, 14,879 yds and 107 tds might have something to do with it.
