Brehs... Lawrence Taylor

[Captain Crunch]

LT top 3...

I dont know.. everybody in the 70s played dirty and were talented..lol


Real shyt, I would not have played WR in the 70s. Jack Tatum was that nygga. To me he was the scariest mofo ever..

Jack Tatum straight up paralyzed a dude

LT was indeed a monster. My Grandpops favorite player of all time. At his peak he was the best but when the early 90's Cowboys came through he was no match for Larry Allen, Mark Tuinei and Kevin Grogan.....we would just run straight at him with Emmitt.

Larry Allen never faced Lawrence Taylor who retired a year before Larry got in the league.

take your fake ass post elsewhere

It should also be noted that the reason you see this huge focus on Left Tackles and protecting the quarterback's blind side is because of Lawrence Taylor.

 

[Absolut da poet ®]

This man was scary
Imagine having to be a QB and face him.



@NYC Rebel Tell us what it was like watching him live on Sundays

I might've been able to answer this question like 20+ years ago ..

To be honest now...I don't really remember other than to say he was the second best defensive player I've ever seen next to Reggie White who was throwing 300lb men in the air like tennis balls

 

[New Jeruzalem Journalist]

How do you not wake up in the middle of the night screaming from flashback nightmares if you played QB in the NFC East in the late 80s??

Reggie White, Lawrence Taylor, Dexter Manley, Charles Mann, Jerome Brown, Clyde Simmons, Jim Jeffcoat, Leonard Marshall.


You had to face these dudes at minimum 6 games every year!

That reminds me of when Eric dikkerson told a story of how one time Reggie White tackled him in the Pro Bowl by throwing an offensive lineman at him.

 

[ReturnOfJudah]

Taylor, Reggie White, Deion, and Ed Reid or Ronnie Lott are the defensive GOATs imo

 

[Da_Eggman]

I remember watching some nfl network show and they had a clip of Ron Jaworski (philly QB) in the huddle and he goes “aight who’s on Taylor” and a coach says some back up FB name and he goes “WHO “ he had such fear in his face

I got to see LT play live once. First football game I ever attended....in Dallas. Old Cowboy stadium was one of the top 5 beautiful sites I have ever seen in my life. That shyt was majestic. It looked about two stories high from the outside, but once inside, it sank into the ground like a greek amphitheater and the light of God came pouring through that roof. I was amazed.

So the Giants are playing the baby Cowboys. I'm there to see LT. The dude seemed bored that game because the Cowboys were pups at the time and no threat. I'm like "come on LT!! This a NY niqqa who is all the way out here to see YOU!!" Game was 21-0 until the Cowboys ran a kick off back, then stopped the Giants and got the ball back. Hope was back in the game for the Cowboys. LT said...."nah." And I saw him do this two plays in a row.



I got up like

He did this for ME!! ME!!

I felt honored watching him switch to beast mode.

My bad it was Big Nate Newton pushing his ass out the way. Larry came the next year.....But as a Giants fan you know aint nothing fake about that.

I''m a Jets fan and hate the Giants!

Did you see what I just posted?

And Nate Newton was a guard. He was engaging with a outside linebacker pushing him around?

You gonna still photo your way through this?

You ain't see shyt. You're making shyt up.

Thought this thread was about scariest players?...

Lott would be in conversation

About Nate:

"Even though he became a starter at left guard in 1987, his struggles to maintain his playing weight almost cost him being waived. Jimmy Johnson became the Cowboys coach in 1989 and eventually moved him to the starting right tackle position and forced him to get into better shape after Johnson beat him in a running race."

LT retired after 92. When was Nate pushing LT around? In 89'? In 90' when the Giants went to the Super Bowl?

I hate these fake ass sports discussions.

With your lying ass....

 

[who_better_than_me]

A crackhead with his athletic ability would be scary

Thank god for football. If he wasn’t terrorizing on the field, he’d be terrorizing the block

 

[Taadow]

Even when be took off his helmet he was scary
He and Wilbur Marshall

*shudder*

Wilbur Marshall was one of the first football cards I ever got in a pack.
Just a straight up head shot...I was not ready.

And Greg Lloyd.
