  • Bob Sanders was supposed to be the Colts version of Rodney Harrison, Troy Polamalu, and Ed Reed but of course his durability kept from being an all-time great defender, and it also kept the Colts defense in those years from being good enough to win multiple championships. Just to show you his impact on the field, the 2006 Colts had an all-time awful run defense when he wasn’t playing-but when he was playing again, they went on to win it all.

    @zachdamenti4387@zachdamenti43877 ай бұрын
    • Record-setting machine? I don't think that's an accurate statement. He had one record by a single reception for 4 years... and that was only because he played for the Marc Tressman-led Bears that year where throws behind the line of scrimmage were almost the norm... the team's overall yards per completion was one of the lowest in the NFL in decades. After that specific year Matt never caught more than 44 balls in a season. And when we let him walk in FA to the Jets no one was crying over that decision... and his replacement, Jordan Howard (5th round rookie) was way more productive. Matt Forte was a slightly above average RB who's best asset was consistency, guys like him are not rare in the NFL, the best GM's get about the same production from late round picks.

  • This channel continues to be a hallmark of happiness. Thanks for the spotlight on these forgotten gems. Not sure if you mentioned it in the last video, but some other forgotten guys that I liked watching play were: Kevin Carter: Even though he was a Ram, I loved seeing this guy cause havoc on the defensive line. Produced well for four different teams, and rarely missed a game. Brad Meester: Really good center that played his entire career for the Jaguars. Would have been a bigger name if he was on a better team in a bigger market. Jamie Sharper: Awesome inside linebacker who was a stalwart for a few years on that vaunted Ravens defense of the early 2000's. Shockingly never made a Pro Bowl. Donald Driver: Quality consistent receiver, and made many tough catches. Usually good for at least 1K+ yards a season. Jesse Armstead: Another great inside linebacker that played the majority of his career with the Giants. Impact player. Levon Kirkland: Maybe the biggest, thickest linebacker that had no right being as fast as he was. He looked like he should have played on the OL. Steve Wallace: Really good LT for the 49ers for many years in the late 80's and early 90's. Before there was Joe Staley, there was Steve Wallace. Amani Toomer: Another good player who shockingly never made a Pro Bowl. Awesome receiver who would have put up better numbers with a better QB play. Haywood Jeffires: Maybe the best of those Houston Oiler receivers of the early 90's. Really smooth, and lanky receiver that could jump up high, and made a lot of dope catches.

    • Another four: Leslie O’Neal: One of the highest sack totals by anyone who’ll probably never make it to Canton, and a second team all pro for the Chargers Super Bowl team in 1994. Rick Casares: At his peak was arguably the best player on an offense that averaged 30 points per game. Great power runner for the Bears in the mid 50’s. Dennis Harrah: Made six pro bowls as a lineman for the Rams, and was a first team all pro in 1986. Part of a very good line in LA. And Joey Browner: An all decade team safety that somehow wasn’t mentioned in the recent Dorktown Vikings documentary.

    • @@paulgaitherFor the record, among those in the video, I would say Harold Jackson probably belongs in Canton. He had the second most receiving yards up through 1983, and was top ten in receptions and receiving touchdowns through that same span, made five pro bowls and two or three all pro teams, and unlike some receivers who put up larger yardage back then he was the best receiver on three or four playoff teams in his prime in LA, and never played with a prime Hall of Fame quarterback. His quarterbacks in Philly were career backups (Pete Liske and John Reaves weren’t very good), his best quarterback in Los Angeles was John Hadl in 1973, and most of the players there were solid but not amazing and per scheme weren’t told to throw much at all. He did play with Joe Namath who is in Canton, but that was in his final season in 1977, and in New England, Steve Grogan was pretty solid but not one of the single best. Jim Marshall may have an argument if only for his sheer longevity and durability. He not only played 20 years without missing any games (would’ve been 21 if not for a career ending leg injury in his free time), but he had 133 sacks unofficially which is in the top 20 all time, and he was a key player on arguably the greatest defensive line ever in the Purple People Eaters. Deron Cherry may have an argument. He was a six time pro bowler, made five all pro teams, and even all decade team in the 1980’s. And after those three, if Bob Sanders never got hurt, and played at the same level for another two or three years at least, he’d probably make it to Canton by consensus. Other than those four though, I don’t know how many others would have a legit case for Canton. But all certainly are worth a shoutout for the careers they had.

    • @@jamardns77If Culpepper was the quarterback of the 98 Vikings instead of Randall Cunningham, he’d probably be acknowledged more. No knock on Cunningham at all, but let’s face it that team is talked about whenever people mention the best non champions and the early 2000’s teams Culpepper was on weren’t as good, and as such are more forgotten.

  • This is definetly going to help me on my NFL immaculate grid games on pro football reference🤣. Thanks for making this video. I was born in 2002, however, I'm aware of most of these guys. Jim Marshall should already be in Canton. The fact that he isn't just shows how stupid the voters are sometimes. Greg Lloyd is an intimidating presence and the fact that he exceled despite his "lack of size" at the linebacker position was incredible. My uncle always mentions Christian Okoye too. Another small school that was a beast. Is it safe to say he was Jerome Bettis type back? I know most of these guys due to the huge collection of football cards I had as a kid. My uncles gave me their collections, which is how I know these guys and I grew up playing Tecmo Super Bowl too. One of my uncles still has his Nintendo and I have one myself now, just for that game alone. I've never heard of Harold Jackson and William Andrews though. I've seen Leroy Irvin's name but I didn't know he was as good as this video says. Nice job NFL Throwback!

I remember watching the NFL film vhs call "Qbs under fire" and all the QBs in the 90s said that there was only 1 person in football that they feared, and you guessed it, it was Greg Lloyd.

  • In the short time I spent in the USA as an eight year old in 1989 I got to see The Nigerian Nightmare, Greg Lloyd and Harvey Nickerson, when Okoye ran for over 150 yards (i think) but Bubby Brister threw a bomb to Louis Lipps (another low-key ledgend) for 75 yards. There was of course a young Rod Woodson playing as well, so all-in-all, way better than going to either of the Disney parks!

    • Some would say the knock on a player like him would be that the only reason he got the yardage he did earlier on was that the teams he played on were trailing and thus weren’t good. But just because the teams in Philly he was on weren’t good doesn’t mean he didn’t play well, after all, quarterbacks are labeled game managers typically, not receivers. Moreover, there’s a lot of receivers in recent generations who are in, or will make it to Canton who didn’t succeed at the highest level either. In Jackson’s case, the fact remains, he parlayed the situations he was in, into the second highest career receiving yardage through 1983, as well as top ten totals in receptions and receiving touchdowns along with five pro bowls, and two AP all pro selections, and he did this without ever having a prime Hall of Fame quarterback throwing to him (his quarterbacks in LA were solid, but rarely the best, the same could be said of Steve Grogan in New England, and in Philly his quarterbacks weren’t good). I say that’s a Hall of Fame career personally.
