One of the better duos ever.

Saw an interview with the two of them. Charlie Waters credited most of his interceptions to people being scared of Cliff.

1. Barry Sanders

I personally felt sick when he retired.. By far my favorite player of all time.

2. Deion Sanders

Every time he touched the ball on returns it was "prime time"

3. Walter Payton

The high knee running style was simply a thing of beauty.. He running style was brutal yet sweet with those stabbing legs planting.. His death was unexpected and unfortunate for someone who was such an inspiration to so many people.

Deion Sanders - played cb/ fs in high school...goat db in my lifetime

Barry Sanders - to see if i culd really get to the bottom of why he walked away

John Elway - my personal all time fav qb

I never saw him play but id really like to meet Deacon Jones too just for the all around good convo imo.

I'm surprised you didn't mention Staubach. Dorsette, Lilly and anyone from the BETTER of the two Cowboys superbowl teams.

So by what I've seen thus far...Earl Campbell & Barry Sanders are two of the most beloved athletes of all time.

The OP asked for three. Listing my top ten was tempting though.
