Why Jerry Kramer ranks #185 in American Football

Jerry Kramer ranks 185th among American Football athletes on GOAT Rank and 2174th of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 86.3 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 84, Peak 92, Longevity 78, Honours 92, Statistics 86. 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 1958–1968 with 11 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1964, 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 5, super bowl titles 2, all-pro selections 5, pro bowls 3.

Immediately ahead sits Lou Creekmur on 86.2, a gap of -0.1 points. Directly behind is Dave Robinson on 86.2. 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.
