I did this in the baseball subreddit yesterday, and it seemed like people had fun with it, so I thought I’d do the same with football. The only rule is that you can’t use one player to cover two decades, so if you want to use Dan Marino or someone like him, you have to choose one decade for him to represent and find a different player for the other decade. Anyways, I’ll start:
60s - Len Dawson
70s - Willie Lanier
80s - Deron Cherry
90s - Derrick Thomas
00s - Tony Gonzalez
10s - Jamaal Charles
20s - Patrick Mahomes
