Walter Payton played from 1975-1987, nearly everyone one of those teams looks pretty good.

Either your stats are way off or you have a different definition of "Conference" than I do.

1975 4-10
1976 7-7
1977 9-5, lost first round
1978 7-9
1979 10-6 lost wild card game
1980 7-9
1981 6-10
1982 3-6
1983 8-8
1984 10-6, lost in NFC title game 23-0
1985 15-1, super bowl
1986 14-2, lost their fisrt playoff game
1987 11-4, lost their fisrt playoff game

The '85 era teams were good, but won a total of one playoff game not held in the '85 season. Good? Maybe...kinda like the Dolphins of recent years I guess.

perhaps I meant division, I dunno.

I chose Walter Payton. He would be a back I would build a team around. He did everything on the field.

For one game I would pick Jim Brown. Only reason he is not the #1 choice is becuase even he admits he didn't do things like block in the backfield.

Walter Payton was one of the best blockers in the backfield.

Barry Sanders I would pick for one play =) He was great in his own way.

Barry Sanders is the wrong answer. By a large margin. This only shows the forum's youth.

Yeah, you're right...he only played in the league when it had bigger, and faster athletes with better coaching.

Did you ever see Walter Payton run out of bounds on his own free will?

That's something that's missing from today's game.

Gayle Sayers.

[bdk3clash]

I've always looked at it this way:

One game: Jim Brown
One season: Gayle Sayers
One career: Walter Payton

Not having Gayle Sayers as a choice is borderline criminal. HAVE YOU NOT SEEN BRIAN'S SONG?
