Who’s the NFL’s Greatest of All Time, the GOAT? STOP! Pause before you answer. Don’t give the media’s narrative or the knee-jerk answer a “casual” would give. How would you - the smart, savvy, die-hard NFL fan - choose the one true GOAT? Which positions would be eligible? Must the GOAT be a quarterback, or would you consider other positions? Which eras would be eligible? Must the GOAT be a recent player, or would you consider players from other eras? Can a player “compile” his way to greatness? Who’s better, a player who was the best in the league for 5 years, or one who was very good for 15? How much do rings matter? Is a player with multiple rings and “meh” numbers better than a ringless player with exceptional ones? Do circumstances matter? Would you give credit to a player who overcame a poor supporting cast, or stick to the cold, hard stats? The GOAT Rules tackles all of these questions and much more! The book sets the rules for the debate and then considers more than 100 “GOAT Nominees.” It's a celebration of NFL history, a walk down memory lane as it narrows the nominee list tournament-style to an all-time “Mount Rushmore,” then to a single player, the GOAT. In the end, the GOAT rules! " Whether you’re a die-hard NFL fan who loves a good debate or a newer fan wanting to learn more about the game’s legends, The GOAT Rules is for you!
