For NFL, it was probably Peyton Manning. I know he didn't have the career success that Brady did but man Peyton was a treat to watch. He made football look like art with the way he ran an offense.

Dude had 114 receptions 1289 yards 12 tds 72 carries 643 yards 8.9 per 3 rushing tds. And to top it off he had punt and kickoff returns for touchdowns that year for 17 total ts in 2012.

However, he started late (rookie at 25) and wasn't THE guy during his career. Marcus Allen was. Marcus is a Hall of Famer, so it is hard to pin that on Bo but yeah, his production doesn't come anywhere close to matching his legacy. 

His legacy, IMO, was as potentially the best athlete ever. He has an argument there depending on how you want to look at it. He was both a productive MLB player and NFL player. When you watch him, you can see he was that dude, but when people start trying to say he was the greatest ever or that he would have broken all the rushing records I think it is awfully misplaced.

But in college at least the Vince Young / Reggie Bush year was bananas. I think that's always going to be on the tops of peoples list.

LSU Burrow was obviously the GOAT performance out of no where. Bengals sucking and being able to get Burrow changed our franchise.

Best NFL performance I've seen was Brett Favre the night after his dad passed. Dude had over 300 yards at halftime

Best NFL player I've ever seen: Deion Sanders

No real limits to this question. Also it’s not restricted to guys you’ve seen LIVE. The wording was a bit confusing .


Can be anyone you’ve seen on TV.



Iv got 2 categories




First one is FOR ONE GAME

Second is all time.




So the best guy Iv seen have one good game was Joe Burrow in college in the championship game VS Clemson. Iv never seen a QB be that accurate and that correct with every read.

He was 31-49 5 pass TDs and 1 rush TD. Looking at the box score seeing he has 18 incompletions doesn’t even feel right with how he dominated but to me that was the best individual game I’d ever seen one guy play.



Then for the all time best football player Iv ever seen it’s between Brady, Ray Lewis and Darrell Revis.


I’d go for Revis.

Iv never seen a guy dominate the secondary like him. He’s better than Woodson, Polomalu, Reed, everyone.

Revis could play nickle, boundary, he also had some Mike Hilton in him VS the run. He was so good it was honestly a bad idea to even throw it to his side of the field. I don’t think i have seen another football player be so good at so many things.

Only reason Ray Lewis didn’t win is because he was really that dominate against the pass.

But Ray Lewis is my fave linebacker ever tho. Iv never seen a guy be able to get involved in so many tackles. He was a football genius for sure.

For best single game, I was at Riverfront in 1971 when a pitcher for the Phils named Rick Wise threw a no-hitter and hit 2 homers.  Last batter was Pete and he must have fouled off a dozen pitches before lining out to third.  I know it's the wrong sport but I had to mention it.
