It's kind of amazing how similar those eras were. Both TEs were young and in their prime. They both had very good #1 and #2 receivers (who both only participated in 5 of the 6 years i'll post below), young and in their prime and they both had really good QBs (holman more the mcgee) throwing the ball for a period of time. 

Holman had the benefit of a QB that put up good numbers every year, while he had the disadvantage of playing along side of not only good receivers but also Mr. James Brooks, who had a lot of catches and yards in those years. 

It's hard to pick one over the other because how similar they are, but Holman is going to get the nod because of the era he played in and the guys he played with that won playoff games and went to a SB. 

Just gonna throw these numbers in since i spent the time putting them together.
