While I like his commentary and by all accounts he seems like a good guy, my vote his Alex Brown. Right defensive end whose best sack total in a year was 7. Good player, but not great.

during the ditka era, i'd say ditka himself. i hold him responsible for not getting to at least 2 more super bowls - a crime with that defense.

singletary was excellent during an era when most teams ran the first 2 downs and passed on 3rd down. the media made a big deal of how many helmets he destroyed as a tackler. when he dropped off, he fell off a cliff.

during the next era, i'd say everyone cheered on alonzo spellman and 'hoped' he'd come around.

He's #4 on the Bears all time Sack leaders. I never would have thought that to be true. When I saw that on his resume on the CSN Football aftershow, I had to look it up and it is indeed true. He's head of guys like Trace Armstrong, Urlacher, Otis Wilson, The Fridge, etc.

When I looked it up, what really shocked me was Julius Peppers is #9 and he was only here for 4 seasons.

Yes, Dan Hampton was great. Maybe the toughest Bear in my lifetime and a pro bowl player at both tackle and end.

That doesn't mean Singletary was not. He definitely was and he was definitely better than Wilson and probably better than Marshall, who were both excellent in their own right.

He was first among many, many greats and he was there being great before most of them started playing.


GD, agree on Hampton, but want to point out he was ALL PRO at both tackle and DE. Just amazing.

You realize that All Pro and Pro Bowl are different things right?

For example, Mitchell Tribusky was a Pro Bowl player, but in no way, shape or form was he ever, nor will he ever be, an All Pro player.

He dealt me blackjack one night. He was with Jeff Graham and I think Al Fontenot. Cool guys.

Singletary was good, but having a Hall of Famer in front of you taking up blockers makes your job easier if your a LB, also had McMichael who was pretty damn good and Fridge in protecting him. Singletary was a brilliant player who was always in the right place because he studied the game intensely.

For example, Mitchell Tribusky was a Pro Bowl player, but in no way, shape or form was he ever, nor will he ever be, an All Pro player.
