Who is your Role Model in the NFL to do better in Football?

Mine would Probably have to be Devin Hester, best Returner ever. I really want to Return just like him :3

I guess I would have to say Brett Favre. Yes, this past offseason may have tainted his reputation a bit with the false comeback and all, but he teaches us all a valuable lesson. Nobody can put a limitation on what you love doing.

My 2 biggest role models are no longer playing in the NFL, Warren Sapp, and Mike Alstott. They are two of the reasons i started watching football! and without them, i might not be playing today.

Currnet players that i look up to Chris Hovan. After Sapp left the Bucs didnt have that force in the middle of the D line, Then Hovan was picked up from MInn. he came in a played like a DT should, the best since Sapp. He is one of the best leaders that the tampa bay buccaneers have ever had.

Sapp is my greatest inspiration ever, i cant say enough about him, when i play i try to play like he (and hovan) did/do. If i could ever meet them i couldnt tell them how much of an impact they had on my life.

Coles is my role model. Tough, smart, fast, focused, and humble. He is a classy guy and he is a great receiver. Too bad his lack of publicity keeps him out of more pro bowls (ironically once he went to the skins where people are louder he went to one).

I forgot his name, but there was also that former player who donated a kidney to a fellow teammate.

Brett Favre is my role model as well. Just like Dude-Lap said this past offseason things were wild and unpredictable, but Favre couold have taken the millions Green Bay has offered to stay retired, but no. He kept playing football and New York love him. Gotta give you props on that one Favre.

Yeah, turning down that money do stay retired was pretty impressive, but I wish it would have worked out differently. I wish he would have made up his decision to return earlier, so that he could remain with the Packers.

Yeah, good choice. He's a great and aggressive player who's very aware and intense. Plays for a great secondary too. He's the defensive face of the Eagles.

That has nothing to do with it...Hines Ward is a good player, but this week, it was his third straight game with a late cheap hit. And what happened? Bengals first round pick at linebacker Keith Rivers is out for the season with a broken jaw.

in my mind sportsmanship has a lot to do with it. actually it wasn't a cheap hit. it was a clean legal hit. and he's an amazing player too, as a received and a blocker. people just can't accept that so they call his hits dirty. but a lot of players are great, what i think sets him apart is his attitude towards the game also.

haha i agree with you there devin hester is the man i have a mixture of his and LT's running game. thats why they are my role models. To me LT is my role model because he is skilled and humble he has a positive attitude most of the time even when he may be upset he wont resort to showing any anger unless its a big deal.

I'd probably have to say Marvin Harrison because I just love the skill and the way he carries hisself. Other than the fact that he shot somebody... The next one would have to be Michael Turner because he was always doubted in college and even early in the pros and now he's a beast, and everyone knows it.
