Since I got this Rivalry Week article idea from Christopher Gates of The Daily Norseman, I figure I’d start off with his team as I run down my favorite players from the Chicago Bears’ NFC North rivals.
I was a big Michigan Wolverine fan in my youth, and Carter was one of the greatest wide outs to ever play for the maize and blue, plus 11 year old me thought it was cool that he wore the number 1. My football fanaticism was just starting to grow back then and when he decided to spurn the NFL and go play in the USFL I liked him even more.
