Most Overrated Player In Sports History??

Ooooh! Brett Favre!

Ooooh! Brett Favre!

I'm sure you'll be hearing from @Pack 500

I'm biased on that one But I can see the arguement got Swann being considered over rated. If not for his performance on the big stage. And the teams that surrounded him is he in the HOF? What are your thoughts on Moon? He's always been a tough one for me to gauge. I've always been on the fence as to whether he was a product of a system. Or just a great QB

Personally, I go with system. Kind've like Drew Brees today. Really good QB who played in a system that made his stats look ungodly.

I didn't put Swann on the list because he's not overrated. I think everyone who's not a Steelers fan knows he's in the hall because of the team he was on.

Well, if you tag him!!!

Favre is 1 or 2 QBs since 1970 to start more than 5 seasons in the NFL to throw at least as many INTs as the league average QB (Eli Manning is the other). Other than that, I really was just poking at a buddy of mine from high school who actually thought that Favre could be better if he only threw to himself, since he thought Favre's receivers were making him look bad (or something to that affect).

Bradshaw a close second.

I wouldn't say Bradshaw, but Namath is definitely up there. I may have to change my Lynn Swann to Joe Namath!

I actually thought about putting Namath on the list but I decided just to put one player from each of the big 4... Oh and I was really drunk...

You already know my stance on Swann. I loved how he played the game. But you also know I'm always going to be a little biased. Because of his college football days. I've always wondered how his game would translate in today's game. And what he would been able to accomplish. With the lack of contact receivers work with now. As compared to the CB's back then.

Oh I would definitely put Namath up there on the overrated list.

@Nosferatu are you going to make an under rated thread too? That could be interesting too. Great thread btw

the thing about being over-rated is that you had to be pretty damn good to have people even care about ya... that is my problem, and why I am not over-rated... nobody has ever rated me in the first place...

Pretty much any dead ball era starting pitcher.

Walter Johnson for me.
