96 Cortez Kennedy
95 Greg Lloyd
94 DeMarcus Ware
93 John Randle

On a somewhat related note: This is a college football question, but can you name the only two players in the history of American football to wear the jersey number 100 (all three digits?)

though I recall Derrick Thomas wore 90 for a period of time too. Not sure how long it was...
Neil Smith wore 90 in those years.

He is the answer to a trivia question I once heard a few years ago.... Who are the only 2 players to make the Pro Bowl twice, once each for 2 different teams? I can't remember who the other guy was.

I'd have to go with Jared Allen for 69 though.

Deacon over Greene?

Leo Nomellini and Mike Ditka supporters may have something to say about #73 & #89 respectively.

Some of these are going to be real tough! Having to pick one major top-shelf HOFer over the other.


#33...Sammy!

#74, with Bob Lilly, Merlin Olsen and Bruce Matthews is hard to beat in terms of Pro Bowls and All-Pros.
