Who doesn't like BIG plays on game day?

Whether it's a kick return for 100+ yards end zone-to-end zone; a terrific cut-back off tackle by the HB, breaking out into the open field with one man to beat; a well designed screen play on 4th and desperation that nets double the yards needed to sustain a drive late in the waning seconds of a close game; or, the launch of "da Bomb" thrown with uncanny precision just over the out-stretched hands of a defender into the waiting hands of a sure handed receiver in full stride....

If you put together an ideal offensive team, who would make your Best All-Time offensive squad?

Mine is as follows:

QB--Roger Staubach
Back-up (Joe Montana)

Backfield: Franco Harris, Larry Csonka, Barry Sanders, Walter Payton, and John Riggins

Receiving core: Fred Biletnikoff(WR), Jerry Rice (WR), Lynn Swann (WR) and Kellen Winslow (TE)
Back-up TE: Tony Gonzalez

O-Line: Jerry Kramer, Jim Otto, Larry Little, Gene Upshaw, and Art Shell

PK: Adam Vinateri

Wow! Pretty impressive how you even added another dimension, including standouts on the other side of the ball as well.

Wise move @ Ray Guy, talk about pinning down your opposition deep in their own end of the field.

This old school line up would make for a very long day for the opposition's offense (cannot run anything towards the middle, or face the ire of Butkus; cannot string any passes to the HB out in the flat near Hendricks' menacing long arms and capable hands of making the interception; and, Ray Guy, man how many times have we seen him pin the opposition down in their own end with their backs virtually against the proverbial wall, rock and hard place).

Hat tip @ Gayle Sayers too...odds are he will break at least one long one before the game is over, if not more.

I think your front 4 is perfect, I would have gone Ray Lewis and LT for Hendicks and Ham at LB, and I think Deion and Night Train at CB

What a great line up! Merlin Olsen will get you more than a few sacks, and Jan Stenerud can be counted on to sail a clutch kick through the uprights when needed the most.

Amazing Calvin Johnson is like halfway (if that) through his career and already making these lists. What a beast.

I like this. As a Raiders fan, and big Jano fan - I wouldn't have have as the placekicker however. Maybe Akers or .... Blanda :suds:(if a back-up QB is needed :whistle:)

Sure. Ray Lewis and LT on the outside would probably be very good too.. :) I just really liked Ted Hendricks when I was a kid. Deion was certainly a great cover guy but I want my CBs to be football players.. Not girly men cover guys. :)

Make it short and simple.

1993 Cowboys Offense
1989 Eagles Defense

That combo would have gone 19-0 easily.

Deion couldn't cover todays great receivers. Ronny Lott could. Jack Tatum could cover today's receivers but they would put him in handcuffs after the game....
