  • It's sad because I know if Sean Taylor was never killed he would've been on this list.
  • You forgot the most intelligent and important moment of Troys career. He lined up in the C gap
  • From a long time Patriots fan: Brian Dawkins and Ed Reed were awe inspiring to watch. Ed was a certified ball hawk and made QBs lives a living hell in the deep zone, as well as crushing WRs: to me, even a more crucial player than Ray Lewis. Brian Dawkins on the other hand was a freak of nature athlete and played every game like it was his own Superbowl. Never saw him half ass a single game.
  • Ed Reed is the reason I fell in Love with Football! His Jersey was my First Jersey which I still have. Not to mention He's just a Class Act. My GOAT 🐐!

    “if steve atwater hit me as hard as okoye, i wouldn’t be friends with no one named steve no more” 😂😂
  • @kallsenator
    Atwater hit Okoye so hard that it gave Spicy Adams a back cramp 28 years later
  • @GodlyFeelin
    Sean Taylor could've atleast been 10 but he was taken from us at 24 way to soon smh RIP SEAN TAYLOR 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
  • @ChrisTesch87
    One of the things I love so much about Troy was he was a 3 star high school recruit from Dayton Oregon! Coming from a tiny town in Oregon of all places and to get where he did is incredible. Loved Troy!
  • @mtruce66
    Troy Polamalu and Ed Reed were both legends.
  • @fairplayjay
    As a longtime ravens fan, I just had so much respect for Troy. I really grew up watching a true height of the Ravens-Steelers rivalries and defenses. Such a pleasure watching him and Reed.
  • Brian Dawkins needs to be in the top 5 or 3 he was the heart and soul of the defense in the Eagles in the late 90's and in the 2000s
  • Sean Taylor blew em all away. Even with his short career, he was once in a lifetime. This cat was different. 6-3 230 with a 4.4 40 and had the range of Ed Reed/Instincts of Polamalu and hit as hard as Lawrence Taylor!
  • @Thaeffintruth
    Think about this... now that Donnie Shell got into the HOF this year....that means the Steelers rookie class of 1974 has FIVE Hall of Famers in ONE draft .....that's absolutely insane...i dont think we'll see that again from one team
  • @DrePants44
    Larry Wilson Safety for the Cardinals #8 jersey Invented the safety blitz Had two broken hands during a game and still got an interception W H E R E
  • “I’m like Michael Jackson before he went crazy…I’LL BE THERE”…has gotta be one of the best NFL mic’d quotes of all time 🦅
  • @dmacwbc
    Ronnie Lott cut his finger off to get back in the game..... Omg! No wonder they say current football is soft 🤣
  • Dawkins is too low you said yourself only player with 25 int 25 forced fumbles 25 sacks and he is ten wtf
  • I thanked Steve Atwater for all the hits when I saw him at the airport (DIA) and I loved him. But just want to come here and say that no one ever mentions another great Broncos safety -- Dennis Smith. Smith was tremendously athletic and another bell-ringing hitter.
  • Paul Krause played the position like an MIT professor (that's a compliment) he perfectly knew the ankles and how much distance he could cover for an interception.
