Best Players to NEVER Play in the Super Bowl

[CoolieMan]

So the NFL Network did their top 10 list of the best players to never play in the Super Bowl...it is as follows

10 Sterling Sharpe
9 Randall Cunningham
Dan Diordorf
LaDamian Tomlinson
John Randle
Eric Dickerson
Chris Carter
3 Tony Gonzales
2 Dan Fouts
1 Barry Sanders

not sure of the order except the top 3....

Not real sure how Earl Campbell was left off that list....who else do you think should have or could have made the list?

Another list reminds us of OJ, Dickerson, Sayers, Campbell, Butkus, and Deacon Jones.

Sterling Sharpe probably shouldn't be on there, he had a very good 3 year stretch from like 93-95 or something. I'm assuming this is during the Super Bowl era so Jim Brown just missed out.
I'm assuming this is retired players, because if not, how isn't AB on there, everyone says he's first ballot HOF'er and the best ever to play WR.

AB is with the Raiders so it is safe to put him on the list unless he goes to another team in the future.

Apparently, Ryan Shazier doesn't even think he's the best playing right now:

Hmm well we'll see how AB is without Ben and with a HC that will hate his WR just cutting off routes and running incorrect routes.

[Steelworth]

Wasn't it his rookie season, too? Or was it his sophomore season? Imagine going that early and then never making it again. That's rough.
