Baltimore Colt - it has to be Johnny Unitas

Indianapolis Colt - I am sticking with Marshall Faulk

Faulk is the reason I became a Colts fan. I remember watching all the highlights on ESPN every week about this kid at San Diego State University and I was a big football fan at the time. (Just wasn't raised to be one) Seeing what her did made me pay attention every week to see the highlights of what he did the next week. When he was drafted I then said "That is my team and that will be the guy to turn the franchise around."

I remember watching the evening news the first day he appeared at Colts training camp. "Super-back is here".....boy he didn't disappoint. One huge early success I can remark about Irsay's career as owner was green-lighting the Faulk/James trade. I try to keep that in mind during these difficult times because back then I threw my shoe at the wall and said many awful things.

I know you said pick one.. but there's too many for me to pick only one.

Here's my list (kinda long..lol)

(QB) Peyton Manning: Best we have ever had under center.

(WR) Marvin Harrison: In my opinion.. The next best thing to Jerry Rice.

(RB) Edgerrin James: Strongest running back the Colts had.

(LT) Tarik Glen: The man was a beast!!..

(SS) Bob Sanders: The heart of the defense.. he played at 100mph.. just too bad he broke down alot.

(DE) Dwight Freeny: Two words.. spin move..

(DE) Robert Mathis: Fast.. Freeny's twin.. and he kinda looks like Kratos from God Of War..lol

(WR) Clarence Verdin: Not one of the best WR.. but was one of the best punt returners we ever had.

(RB) Eric Dickerson: Up there with Edge.. but was more finesse than power.. I couldn't get down with the goggles though..lol
