16. Joe Montana

Joe Montana was the man in the 1980s. He led the 49ers to four Super Bowl championships, and played his best when the lights were the brightest. Whether it was “The Catch,” the drive to beat the Bengals in Super Bowl XXIII, or one of the countless other times Montana won a game for the 49ers, there was no one that could touch Joe Cool for a full decade.

17. Harold Carmichael

Carmichael was the go-to target in Philadelphia for 13 years. He led the NFL in receptions and yards in 1973, making the first of four Pro Bowls throughout his career. He was selected as a member of the 1970s All-Decade Team, and was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2021 as a member of the Class of 2020.

18. Peyton Manning

Manning seemed to have two goals when he came to the NFL- win games and break as many records as humanly possible. He broke the single-season touchdown record twice in his career, won four MVP awards, and two Super Bowls. Manning currently sits in the top five for most passing yards and touchdowns of all time.

19. Lance Alworth

Lance Alworth’s powder blue No. 19 jersey is easily the best jersey in the history of sports. It looked amazing on the best receiver of the 1960s, especially as he led the NFL in receiving yards on three different occasions. The Chargers legend was named All-Pro in six consecutive years from 1963-68, and was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 1978.
