    Easily the "Tyler Rose."

    Kenny Houston was similar to Joe Morgan (Astros/Reds) in that he was traded away and had his best years with the Redskins.

    Anyone with a memory dating back to the late 70s will tell you that this poll isn't even questionable. E-A-R-L. The man looked like the incredible Hulk by game's end. Jerseys completely ripped to shreads. He's the reason that the league changed the materials from which the shirt was made.

    Not a shabby list tho. Several players who would be considered by many as quite possibly the best player to ever play their respective position.

    But I'm sure that almost every team thats been around as long as the Oilers/Titans could make that argument.

    Mike Barber was NOT great.

    I'd go with Robert Brazille and Alvin Bethea (or is it Elvin Bethea?:confused:)

    Two things :

    1) It's Earl, no doubt.

    2) The last two names should not be on this list.

    I still hate that guy!

    In my heart Warren Moon will always be the best former Oiler. I grew up idolzing the guy in the 80s. I even wrote an editorial back in junior high school to the Houston Chronicle proclaiming him the "god of footbal"
