The list of the best players NFL today era includes such famous names as Joe Montana Montana, Jerry Rice, Lawrence Taylor, Reggie White, another outstanding players and Walter Payton of course. Jim Finks, the former Chicago Bears general manager who drafted Payton, said about this “sweetness” guy: "He is a complete football player. He is better than Jim Brown. He is better than O.J. Simpson."
Mike Ditka, who coached Payton and the Bears to a victory in Super Bowl XX gave him high praise saying that Walter was the best football player he's ever seen and probably one of the best people he’s ever met. "Walter takes pride in the little things, the blocking, the faking. Once against Cincinnati, he picked up a couple of linebackers and liked to have killed them," coach remembers. "He could do it all: run, block and pass. But off the field, he was just as great of a person. He was a real person. There was no phoniness about him."
Walter Payton is really greatest sport’s legend and who have ever seen his play will never forget. He could play any position, he never avoided contact, in response to accusation that he "run over" his opponents trying to hit them as hard as he can, Payton usually said: "My coach at Jackson State, Bob Hill, always said that if you are going to die, you should die hard, never die easily." It seems to be he has to carry the Bears on his shoulders. There are many talented players but real genius we can be counted on the fingers of one hand and Walter Payton is one of them.
