    NFL 100 Team.

    This is the first section that I got completely right: The TEs. The only one I wasn't sure of was Winslow, but I had a feeling that Sharpe wouldn't make it over Winslow. Especially, given Winslow's role in the Coryell offense. So, I got all five right.

    I came close on the Safeties. I had Krause over Wilson. So, only 5/6.

    So far, looking at the overall team, I don't see many, if any, that I can honestly argue with, without showing a gluten of recency bias.

    Baltimore is VERY well represented on this list. And there's still1 more player to appear. 9 players so far on the roster have been In Baltimore for at least part of their career. 3 Ravens (Ray, Ed, and JO), 4 Colts (Marchetti, Parker, Mackey, and Moore), and 2 short term Ravens (Sanders and Woodson). That leaves Unitas as a lock for QB. No less than 10% of the players were in Baltimore for at least part of their career (however brief), and 8 of them made their names here.

    Not bad for a city that "should build another museum."

    Another reason why I hate Washington teams with a passion.

    If Tucker had played longer he would have made the team. And he doesn’t have a Super Bowl clinching kick on his resume yet.

    I’m being biased, but Tucker should have made the cut.

    I'm ok with Tucker not being on there for the first 100 year all time 100 roster. He doesn't have the years, and he doesn't have a trio of game winning Super Bowl kicks (but he does have 1 in his short career).

    Give him time - he'll be on the 125th anniversary team.

    Yeah. He's going to be on that team if they do it, but you can't push off a pioneer for him. It would be like, in the mid 2000s, saying that Manning should get in over Unitas. When many of the aspects of the offense that Manning ran, were pioneered by Unitas.

    You're right. I missed that. I thought there would be six. There was only five.
