  • O.K. Who's #1?

    This thread is about nominating and seconding nominations. The title is:

    MVP NFL EVER.

    Oh, yes. The ultimate nomination thread. The best 5 might even go to a poll! This can be player, owner, team whatever!

    Which person/entity is the MVP in the history of the NFL, and, if you want him/her/them to win, you might make your case and say why.

    Hey, it's the off-season. I need something to type![/b]

        I think Favre has to be...he had 1 losing season in his career. argueably was the reason reggie white came to green bay. made plays no other nfl QB has been able to make. only player in NFL history to win the NFL MVP 3 years in a row. Possibly could have been more than just those 3. Never had outstanding WR's, at least not 2 at the same time. there was always a progression..sharpe, then brooks, than freeman, then walker/driver, where walker and driver were the only 2 WR's at the same time that excelled.

          Lombardi would be for sure...he turned a team that went 1-10-1 in the year before he came to GB to an instant winner and contender.

            A few considerations:

            Lombardi, Halas, the Rooneys, Pete Rozelle, Don Hutson (for inventing pass routes)

              Well Truly, Curly Lambeau created the pass routes FOR don hutson in the NFL.

                No, I think full credit is given Hutson for that, but I was completely remiss not to mention Lambeau.

                  NO...straight from Curly Lambeau book..."Curly for years had pass routes sitting in his office waiting for the right player to come along, then he saw Don Hutson, and the rest is history."

                    Yah, I kinda like the Rooneys, but I also think Tagliabue might get a vote or two...

                      The coach would have to be Vince Lombardi. He built an NFL powerhouse in the smallest TV market city in the NFL.

                      The player would have to be Johnny Unitas. An undrafted free agent, Unitas became the catalyst of the team to dominate his era. He also quarterbacked in an era where the quarterback called his own plays.

                        I'd take Otto Graham over Unitas for impact on the league.
