Who would you vote for?
Who do you think is definitely NOT deserving?

Please God, just one Lombardi before I die.

That link takes me to the Assumable San Antonio page Tom.

I'd add Marshall, Foreman and Browner to the list for consideration.

From that list, I would say Big Pat for sure and Allen would be a possible additional choice.

Pat over KW? Pat was just a guy until he came and played next to Kevin. KW was a 5X 1st team All Pro. Pat was 2nd team All Pro one season. Agree on Allen tho.

Pat was a big time DT in Buffalo before he ever came to Minny.   They played in about the same number of games and Pat had 150 more tackles.  I think he was more of a force and a difference maker than KW as he disrupted the middle of line on every play.  KW excelled as a rusher, but did not stack the line like Pat.  Think KW was great as well, but if I had to choose which guy to anchor the middle it would be Pat.

Jim Marshall hands down. Most consecutive games, most fumbles recoveries, historic D-line, Wrong Way Run, 127 sacks

Well yeah...I just assumed this list was about "after the obvious ones in Foreman and Marshall..." but I was distracted by how cheap houses are in San Antonio.
