Why George McAfee ranks #235 in American Football
George McAfee ranks 235th among American Football athletes on GOAT Rank and 2363rd of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 85.3 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 84, Peak 92, Longevity 74, Honours 88, Statistics 90. Those categories are normalised against the full American Football reference universe of 340 records, not a shortlist, so the position reflects the whole sport rather than a handful of famous names.
The record covers 1940–1950 with 11 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1941, which sets the Peak component at 92. Peak is the defining strength of the profile at 92 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes nfl titles 2, punt return average 12, career touchdowns 39, career interceptions 25.
Immediately ahead sits Lem Barney on 85.3, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Frank Gifford on 85.2. The position moves whenever the verified record moves: new titles, new seasons or a corrected source all feed straight back into the same formula, and every change is dated on this profile.
