One of the best aspects of watching football is seeing the best in the league shine when the lights are brightest. While every player that makes it into the NFL can lay claim to being among the best in the world, the ones that truly excel and reach the top are the ones that the fans are going to remember until the end of time. This season, we are getting a chance to witness some amazing players that are going to be enshrined in the Hall of Fame one day, meaning that there are games that people would be unwise to miss. It is hard to see now, but when a legend exits the game, he leaves a massive void to fill by a new crop of talented players.
Going to an NFL game means that fans are going to be surrounded by others proudly sporting their favorite player's jersey, and many people can identify players based on their number alone. NFL fans love to debate everything pertaining to the game, especially which players they feel are at the top. Comparing players is a tradition in the league, and each fan has their own opinion on the matter.
Today, we are going to have participants choose the better player on each entry, and at the end, we will guess their favorite team!
