All Millenium Football Team

True, this is a baseball blog, but it is Football Playoff Season. For god sakes, we have to talk football at least a little bit. Its the world's favorite contact sport, and the players listed below have made it a great game carrying in to the new Millenium. Some players are debatable, (Madison, Bly, Umenyiora) so send suggestions.

QB- Tom Brady- Superbowl winner, best clutch player and the best at the touchdown passer.
QB- Brett Favre- Best ever, hands down, a leader, a guy who doesn't know when to quit.
QB- Donovan McNabb- Best African American quarterback ever, most underrated passer ever.
QB- Kurt Warner- More of a 90's guy, but surely one of the greats. Former Barn Stormer, 2 time MVP Kurt Warner has an incredibly accurate throwing arm.

RB- Brian Westbrook- Fantastic receiver and runner, leader of the Eagles.
RB- Edgerrin James- Has regressed, but when he was good, he was good.
RB- Marshall Faulk- Maybe the best receiving RB ever, he led the Rams to the promise land.
RB- Curtis Martin- Quitely the most consisten runner, maybe ever.

FB- Mike Alstott- Hands down the best Fullback ever. Perfect for short yardage, but gained 3.7 per carry anyway.
FB- Lorenzo Neil- One of the best blockers ever.

TE- Jason Witten- The best receiving Tight End ever. He's fast, large and has soft hands.
TE- Tony Gonzalez- Another one of the best. He has great leaping ability and fantastic hands.
TE- Jeremy Shockey- Had super hype around him, and broke tackles with the best of 'em.

C- Jeff Saturday- Most underrated C in the league, keeps Manning under 25 sacks yearly.
C- Tom Nalen- The heart and soul of the Broncos' line.
G- Alan Faneca- A fantastic player, and fantastic in Pitt.
G- Larry Allen- A great guard, one of the best ever, great and run blocking.
T- Orlando Pace- Very underrated, a key player in Super Bowl wins.
T- Flozell Adams- Another very underrated player.
T- Joe Thomas- The first super money O-Lineman. Plays for a weak team, but does his job with the best of 'em.

WR- Marvin Harrison- Maybe the best ever. Quiet and consistent, made Peyton Manning.
WR- Randy Moss- Brash, but incredible, has teamed with Tom Brady to be unstoppable.
SLOT- Wes Welker- New but surely the best at his position. Fast and a great YAC guy.
WR- Terrell Owens- Loud, obnoxious, but great hands and size.
WR- Larry Fitzgerald- Lived up to every bit of hype. Slow but agile, and has THE best hands in the league. Would be a perfect no. 2.

K-Adam Viniateri- Best clutch guy ever since Dempsey.
P- Shane Lechler- One of the strongest legs ever. The Raiders need him badly.

KR-Dante Hall- Fantastic with the Chiefs, has regressed but unlimited potential.
