    A lot depends on what rules you play under. If its pre 1978, then OK defense.

    But if its today's game, forget that. The difference between Taylor and Von Miller isn't enough to overcome the difference between Marino/Graham/Montana and Favre/Aikman is too great.

    Plus, where you see a dearth of D pass rushers of all time credentials, I see a plethora of all time OTs to block them.
    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

    An exercise in delusion to be sure. How can you even begin to compare guys across eras? Not just rule changes, but sheer size difference as well. Take Muñoz, the first tackle selected - 6'6" 278? String bean by the standards of today's NFL.

    I guess you just have to assume they'd be as dominant at their position under whatever rules and opponents they play under and go from there.
