 Super Collection
By peterfromkanata
First of all, this is a terrific four-disc collection that no NFL fan ought to be without. The 100 biggest players are counted down, in order, with splendid film footage and commentary from a number of players, coaches, sports journalists, historians and “celebrity” fans like Dennis Miller and Burt Reynolds.
As an older fan–I’m over 60–I particularly enjoyed seeing the greats of my youth like Jim Brown, Dick Butkus, Joe Greene and Johnny Unitas “in action” again. No–I’m affrighted that players like Jim Thorpe, Red Grange and Slingin’ Sammy Baugh were even before my time–but their inclusion tells you that this list covers the entire history of the game, as it should.
I was also impressed with the fine booklet included in the package–a gorgeous bonus for fans.
Of course the list inevitably produces debate among football fans–a player must be higher–or lower–the great players who are missing etc. In fact as I watched the list, I had a number of questions myself. For example, I would have placed Kellen Winslow and Alan Page much higher.
There are a number of current players on the list–Ed Reed, Randy Moss, Ladainian Tomlinson, Tom Brady, Ray Lewis, Tony Gonzalez and Peyton Manning. I don’t dispute their greatness–I’m sure they will all be in the “Hall” someday. However, will have to they be included on this peculiar list if they are still playing ? If so, what with regards to Troy Polamalu, Drew Brees, Charles Woodson and Brian Urlacher, to name a few other extremely pleasing players who are still out there “doing their thing” ?
Finally I will throw out a few more names that did not make the “Top 100″. So a good deal of fans like myself will wonder in regards to :–Jim Taylor–Paul Hornung–Lynn Swann–Franco Harris–Ken Stabler–Eddie George–Drew Pearson–Russ Francis–Dave Casper–Mike Curtis–Frank Gifford–Len Dawson–Larry Wilson–Steve Largent–Jim Kelly–Jerome Bettis–Carl Eller–Isaac Bruce–Billy Sims–Tim Brown–Cortez Kennedy. The longer I sit here, the more names I will think of, but I have made my point. I am sure that any self-respecting fan could add to my list.
There is another question–different players have dissimilar roles on a football team. How may we genuinely say who was the greatest amid Jim Brown, Lawrence Taylor, Joe Montana and Jerry Rice ? Their positions were so different, though each was capable of altering a game–and often times did !
Bottom line–despite my comments, this is a terrific collection that provides hours of memories for football fans, and a ton of “debate material” the next time you get together with your buddies for beer and hot wings ! Enjoy !

 Another NFL Films masterpiece
By Kris128183
NFL films made another masterwork with their list of the top 100 greatest players of all time. Each player is staged by a significant sports figure(athlete, writer, coach, owner, etc.) and each segment is filled with the outstanding NFL Films footage of that players biggest moments. The narration is perfected as is the NFL films music. If I had one complaint it is that a great deal of players get ranked too low. Barry Sanders, Randy Moss, Brett Favre, Michael Strahan and a good deal of others were ranked more or less low in my opinion but other than as supposed or expected this is a great product for any football fan.
