    Would Swann have been the greatest receiver of all time if he played with Ben as his quarterback?

    If Ben played on the 70s team, the results would be similar.

    If Swann (or Stallworth) played today under modern rules, they would have lit it up stats wise.

    I vote Swann. Both were incredible.

    I don't think Swann would be the greatest ever though. J. Rice was a monster after catching the ball, very elusive.

    You can't compare eras.

    I agree. That is why I am putting Swann in this era with Ben.
