No. A great player on a team that wins a championship will always stand out compared to a productive player on bad teams.

Ty F. Gore for playing when nobody else would
I remember during the dark ages (Nolan and Singletary) he played every game as if it was a Super Bowl.
I remember reading an article that once that one Sunday he came out to the candlestick parking lot and saw his fellow team mates laughing and jesting around like loosing that days game wasn't that big of a deal. Like losing was just normal.
I am most proud of my 21 F. Gore Jersey bc he played when no body else would.

Any Niner top-10 list that doesn't include Hall of Famer Jimmy Johnson, one of the best man-to-man corners in NFL history, just isn't a legitimate list. The guy played both ways. He'd lock up on the other team's best receiver for the entire game and sometimes stay in to play receiver on offense. Come on.

Any niner list that doesnt include Terrell Owens, Leo Nomellini is off imho, look how T.O dominated in his time as a niner.

Gore deserves to be on the list more than many IMHO. This guy produced when there wasn't an All Pro supporting cast. He played for years as the single most important part of the offense. Teams tried to focus on stopping him and couldn't do it. He has been the most consistent player on the field for a very long time and is still productive today.
He has been the feature guy for longer than I can remember any other, including number 33. I loved the role that Craig filled, but he was not asked to be the back that Gore is. He never had a Montana, Rice, Clark, Jones, Taylor and Rathman together on the field with him but he still could explode for 150.

Yes i'd say Gore will assume top 10 all time Niners status once he retires.
