    Interesting list... Good stuff here.

    Favre vs. Aikman and Favre vs. Young could possibly be in the top 20 if the list continued to focus on more modern rivalries.

    Only problem there is that Young got completely owned by Favre and Favre got completely owned by Aikman.

    Any other great rivalries you guys can think of?

    I'd put Favre and McNabb for more recent

    McNair and Manning

    Just a thought, but in about 3 years or so....Matt Leinart and Vince Young could be in there.

    I doubt Young vs Leinart would be a big rivalry. They are both in different conferences.

    So did Roger Staubach and Terry Bradshaw and they're #1 on that list. If the two can meet up in the Super Bowl a couple of times and they'll also have some regular season meetings then they could end up being on that list.

    Quick question, when was the last time the Cardinals went to the Super Bowl. In fact, when was the last time the Cardinals went to the playoffs?

    Never to a Super Bowl...Playoffs 1998 I think...they beat the Cowboys in the 1st round...

    I understand your point, but you don't hold that against a current team based on the past failure of an organization. Every team has a 1st time in the Super Bowl.

    Some teams will never make it. Ex: Lions

    For 1 game that Favre-Manning matchup a few years ago was classic.
