I understand the nostalgia of picking Hannah, but considering the facts of what it takes to be a HOF qb verses a HOF guard, there is absolutlely NO comparison!
I wonder how many Hannah backers remember when he went on his tirade against the team and was trying like hell to get traded anywhere!

So you're saying Brady could have played guard and the team would lead the league in rushing every year? Your comparison of "talent level" is just silly.
I'm talking production here. Without one top running back we led the league in rushing because of one player.
If you don't think having a constant reliable rushing game is important, why don't you ask Mr. Brady what the problem was last year.
The Patriots could be successful with different running backs and quarterbacks, because their running game was a constant threat and it made everything better.
I'm sure the nostalgia effect is way behind the "nothing important happened before 2001 effect" on this board.
