Jerry Rice, the greatest wide receiver ever. Oh, those were the days. T.O., whoever you are, you’re not in the same class as him!

Damn straight! It was Rice’s work ethic and intelligence that really set him apart. Pure natural talent won’t make you world-class, it’s only the foundation.

Not that Rice didn’t benefit from having two of the greatest quarterbacks ever to pass to him, but some of his catches verged on the miraculous, like the endless number of one-handed catches of tailing balls.
