Nebraska55fan Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 Looking back it seems like we've had some pretty good leaders during the years the team has performed well. Who are the best leaders of all time that inspired better play- and who would be their possible counterparts on this years team? Christian Peter Grant Wistrom Jason Peter Tommie Frazier Tommy Armstrong Jerry Murtaugh Turner Gill Rex Burkhead Danny Noonan This years team? Quote Link to comment
Hagg Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 Looking on our current team for the (proven) caliber of (some of) those guys on your list is not easy. I won't even try. Hoping for Captain Martinez on O as the obvious one. But we've seen spotty performance there. I admit to not feeling a serious standout as leader on D. Perhaps others here will help with this. Perhaps not. 1 Quote Link to comment
Nebraska55fan Posted August 1, 2021 Author Share Posted August 1, 2021 CTB? I have no idea- my former player is on offense- says it's Martinez and Jurgens on that side of the ball with Toure making noise too. Quote Link to comment

Yeah... well, again, the "captain" guys on the team are most often elected by the players but sometimes appointed by coaches. I always respect both ways, but lean toward players elevated to captain by their peers, even though coaches can often see leadership qualities players might not see. I dare say some of the leaders/captains in recent years have not lived up to their titles. 2 Quote Link to comment
BigRedBuster Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 2AM, Jurgens Jojo and CTB or Stille i usually like a lineman on both sides to be a captain. 1 1 Quote Link to comment
