Who's the greatest returner in the NFL? - Message Board Basketball Forum

in history, who do u like the most? if u had to choose one kick return to win the game for u, who do u want back returning the ball?

i think the best returner has to be dante hall. he has been quite this year so far, but everytime he touches the ball, he is one of those rare players who can really go the distance. i dont know why they dont use him more in the offense, at least the way the saints are using reggie bush, i think dante is quicker and more shifty than reggie.

the punt return where he backed up to the 5, then nearly ran back in the endzone was just sick.

I really don't think this is debatable with Hall healthy. He's just too quick.

i agree, duante hall is extremely quick and he can shift through defenses as well.

Right now-- Dante Hall or Steve Smith
All-Time-- Deion Sanders or Eric Metcalf

Neon Deion most definately.

I think Brian Mitchell is the all time leader in yards. I don't know who's the scoring leader.

Rod Woodson was dangerous back in the day. And Via Sikahema, who's name I'm sure I just butchered.

all i need is maurice jones-drew. hes gonna be one of the greats.

craigthomasb · 10-21-2006, 07:35 PM

i agree hes quickly becoming one of my facorite players

MK2V1GP · 10-21-2006, 08:36 PM

primetime was great, but IMO he's a bit overrated. im not sayin he's bad, he's definetly top 3, but i dont think he's the best, between dante, deion and metcalf, those are the top 3.

i think devin hester from chicago is gonna be a good one in couple years

I think I should mention Gale Sayers.

Brian Mitchell was one of the most consistant returners (and all-purpose players) in NFL History. The most explosive probably of all-time (as much as it pains me to say this) was Deion Sanders.

Desmond Howard.

Isnt Hester just a rookie? Do I get something wrong here? How can he be one of the best all time?

HippinHoopster · 10-23-2006, 04:12 PM

Dante Hall is great
