What QB to WR combo do you wish that you could have seen and never did (1 Viewer)

[a_rackowski]

Is there a "fantasy" combo you wish you could have seen?

For me its Favre to Rice. Even at the end of Jerrys career I would have loved to see the 2 veterans working together. Rice was always in the right spot and caught everything that came his way. Favre can squeeze the ball into the tightest spots and has made great players out of nobodys his entire career.

For me there is no 2 guys I would have loved to see play together than a Late in his career Jerry Rice and Brett Favre.

At one time Chris Carter was willing to come to GB to play with Favre. I hated him with a passion, but I am curious how that would have turned out. I dont think Carter had much left in the tank either.

I dont know if this topic is going to work or not - but I am interested in hearing others.

Not a QB/WR combo, but I would have loved to have seen Dan Marino play on the '95 Steelers team.

for me, it would be the greatest pure passer of all time, dan marino, and the greatest deep threat of all time, randy moss.

I totally agree Dan Marino is the best qb ever period!!

 

[hauser42]

Great topic first of all.

Here is a couple I would have liked to see.

Joe Montanna and Steve Largent.

Joe Namath and T.O.

Dan Marino and James Lofton.

 

[Green Apple Splatter]

Art Schlichter to Rae Carruth

 

[ScoobyDoo]

I couldn't agree more.

 

[Bankerguy]

Both in their prime.

Moss and Favre.

i spent years arguing that marino is the greatest QB ever (and i'm still exhausted from it). i still think he is, but now, to prevent another exhausting debate, i just refer to him as the greatest pure passer of all time.

 

[Whiplash Inc.]

Both in their prime.Moss and Favre.

Ditto.

 

[Iwannabeacowboybaby!]

I often wish Troy Aikman could have played a season in SF and had to air it out. I always felt like he had the arm and accuracy to just light it up if he ever had to.

He's the grown up version of Carson Palmer.

I'd also like to see Dan Marino on the Ravens team that won the SB. He always thru the ball everywhere but I'd like to actually see him on a team that required you to have patience and a defense that dominated the offense as far as what was talked about for that team.

 

[BroadwayG]

Lynn Dickey to James Lofton

Wait....I did get to see the greatest connection ever!!!!

 

[rundave]

Manning and Rice in their primes would be unstoppable.

 

[hauser42]

Lynn Dickey to James Lofton

Wait....I did get to see the greatest connection ever!!!!

Us diehard Packer fans got to see this, but I would have rather watched John Jefferson play in his prime with Dickey.

 

[billrob]

Grossman to Muhammed!

I just cut them both!

 

[texasheat]

Clint Longley to Stepfret Williams

and

John Elway to Randy Moss

 

[Kuz]

Art Schlichter to Rae Carruth

This made me laugh..

 

[RudeDog]

Dan Marino to Lance Alworth

 

[Canowupass]

Vick to Irvin.

 

[GoinDeep]

I would have liked to see the Cowboys pony-up and get Moss (was it a 4th or 6th rounder).

Moss deep and TO runnin slants with Romos escapability....one can dream.

Okay...so its weak to reply to my own post, but I thought about it a tick longer and is this not SCARY?

I agree about Marino. People say that Marino never won the SB so they knock him down below other weaker QB's that did. Give Marino a combo with some defense and maybe even a RB and watch how many SB's he would have won. Therefore, I say combine Marino with any of the SB championship defenses... as for a receiver, it is too easy to choose a Jerry Rice, so I would have liked to see Marino with a tall and talented receiver such as a Colston or Plaxico Burress type. Marino could hit a window that is high for a receiver like that.

 

[tribecalledjeff]

Brady to Moss

 

[The Kansas Comet]

Dan Marino to Lance Alworth

Great posting - that would be my combo of choice.

 

[Ministry of Pain]

Brady to Moss

That's funny but we probably are seeing something very special this season.I would have to go Marino to Terrell Owens...Owens would be one of the few WR that would actually talk back to Dan.

 

[Prof. Chaos]

Losman to Lee Evans.

 

[Sleeper 43]

I know this is QB/WR but seriously.......... Barry Sanders with Emmit Smith's Perennial Pro-Bowl O Line............. Would have been football our eyes had never seen.

 

[sho nuff]

More years of Favre to Sharpe would have been nice.

 

[drdgreenlove]

Ryan Leaf to Mike Williams and Charles Rodgers

 

[Deuce'sWild]

Manning to Rice

Elway to Swann

Marino to Harrison

 

[epiG3]

How about Joe Montana to Jerry Rice.. that would be insane .. the best QB I ever saw throwing to the best WR of all time. Oh wait...

 

[The Jerk]

Neil O'Donnell to Andre Hastings

... instead of Larry Brown

:(

 

[Koya]

ANYone to Don Hutson. 2nd Best WR EVER and it aint close in my book.

Unitas to Berry. They built the mold for the NFL to follow. Montana to Rice. Manning to Marv. It all started with Unitas to Berry.

 

[Paddy O'Seanessy]

Favre to Bullet Bob Hayes

 

[mo542]

Plummer to Boston

 

[KnowledgeReignsSupreme]

Ryan Leaf to Yatil Green

 

[KnowledgeReignsSupreme]

And honestly, after those commercials... I would've loved to see Vick to TO.

 

[urbanhack]

Fouts to Steve Largent

 

[TwinTurbo]

Favre downfield to Moss.

Favre handing off to Barry Sanders...

 

[the rover]

Grossman to Muhammed!

funny.

 

[Mungo Burrows]

I think Ryan Leaf to Marvin Harrison and Marshall Faulk and Peyton Manning to Charlie Jones and Bryan Still would have been interesting.

 

[Chunky Soup]

Brett Favre to Terrell Owens

 

[Evily Betty]

Kordell Stewart to Kordell Stewart

 

[Statorama]

Warren Moon to Harold Charmichael

 

[mjohnell]

Chuck Norris to Mr. T

[Anonymous Internet User]

Michael Vick with Hines Ward blocking downfield

 

[PsychoMan]

I've thought of this for years and glad you mentioned it! Sanders was....well, Sanders. Best I have ever seen hands down. If the above mentioned had happened, the single season rushing record would be an unattainable goal.
