FOFC All-Time NFL Challenge Round 1 - Team III vs. Team V

[WSUCougar]

Which team would win head-to-head, with all of the players in their prime?

Team III:

Coach: Joe Gibbs (30)
QB: Otto Graham (5)
RB: Gayle Sayers (100)
FB: Marion Motley (101)
WR: Lance Alworth (50)
WR: Randy Moss (210)
TE: Dave Kasper (30)
C: Clyde "Bulldog" Turner (2)
G: Steve Wiesnewski (2)
G: Bruce Matthews (5)
T: Kyle Turley (2)
T: Bob St. Clair (2)
K: Adam Vinatieri (2)
P: Jim Thorpe (2)
Ret: Desmond Howard (10)
ST: Jerald Sowell (2)
DL: Deacon Jones (100)
DL: Lee Roy Selmon (10)
DL: Alan Page (2)
DL: Joe Klecko (2)
LB: Junior Seau (52)
LB: Carl Banks (2)
LB: Sam Huff (2)
CB: Ronnie Lott (120)
CB: Dick Lane (90)
S: Rod Woodson (50)
S: Jack Tatum (15)

Offense:
The offense, led by the unforgettable Otto Graham, has a classic feel, with some attitude up front. Moss opens things up by going deep, leaving easy pickings for Alworth and Casper underneath. Sayers is arguably the best running back ever. Thorpe is the most athletic punter imaginable, and Vinatieri and Howard are Super Bowl tested on special teams.

Defense:
It starts with Deacon Jones terrorizing from his end position, with Selmon, Page, and Klecko rock-solid across the line. Seau, Banks, and Huff clean-up from behind that bunch. The secondary is unmatched in skill and intimidation, with Lott, Lane, Woodson, and Tatum.

==================

Team V:

Coach: Tom Landry (1)
QB: John Elway (35)
RB: Emmitt Smith (50)
FB: Daryl Johnston (20)
WR: Don Maynard (150)
WR: Terrell Owens (1)
TE: Mike Ditka (100)
C: Dwight Stephenson (35)
G: John Hannah (50)
G: Jim Parker (5)
T: Art Shell (20)
T: Jonathan Ogden (1)
K: Jason Elam (1)
P: Sammy Baugh (12)
Ret: Rick Upchurch (1)
ST: Fred McAfee (1)
DL: Rich “Tombstone” Jackson (1)
DL: Reggie White (100)
DT: Bob Lilly (100)
DT: Leo Nomellini (1)
LB: Derrick Brooks (1)
LB: Lawrence Taylor (111)
LB: Ray Lewis (1)
CB: Jimmy Johnson (1)
CB: Mike Haynes (100)
S: Ken Houston (100)
S: Cliff Harris (1)

Offense:
This team starts with blocking. Stephenson is one of the top centers in the history of the league. Parker and Hannah were the starting guards on the ALL-TIME NFL team. Shell and Ogden are powerful tackles. Add in “Moose”, Ditka and T.O. and you have a team that will be able to run the football and protect the QB. The all-time leading rusher is running behind that line getting handoffs from the QB with the most career wins. All of the skill position guys can catch. The defenses will be strong. You must be strong up front. I am.

Defense:
As good as the LB core is, the DL should be dominant. White and Lilly form a fearsome 1-2. Nomellini and Tombstone are two of the best players you’ve never heard of. The LB core consists of a blitzer (Taylor), a run stuffer (Lewis) and the best coverage LB of all-time (Brooks). Jimmy Johnson had the skills of Neon without the attitude. Haynes is a physical CB who can cover man on man. The safeties are sure tacklers. Houston has an added job of getting some INT’s, Harris is the enforcer. The pass rush will be amazing, but this defense is a lot more than that.
