At 5:05, a few of you thought it was Barry Sanders. It was Billy Sims who was very similar to Barry running style wise. Same initials too. He only played 5 seasons because of injuries. He went to the Pro Bowl 3 years. Barry considered it an honor to get Sims' number 20. You might want to check out Billy's highlights.

Lawrence Taylor changed the game of football forever. Lawrence Taylor Made offenses change the way that they blocked Edge rushers. Taylor is the reason why all football teams have a humongous and nimble left tackle. Before taylor, offenses would block Edge rushers with a running back.

LT was in my opinion the greatest…he was just a force of destruction. Rules were changed because of him, QB’s called time out because they couldn’t find him on the field, opponents spent the week trying to figure out how to just slow him down. The thing that made him so great was his motor…yeah he was jacked up almost every game, but he never quit on a play. He would run to wherever the ball was, even down field.

Huge Giant fan but there were two running backs that stood above everyone else, Walter Payton and to me Eric Dickerson who for some reason was the best to watch, he just had this gate, he was so smooth, he ran upright, he's the GOAT to me.

The single man who came close to LT was a dude called Derrick Thomas who used to play for the Kansas City Chiefs. Lawrence Taylor was the epitome of defensive football. Nobody could change the game and win it from defense like he could. There's a few games and you have highlighted in a few plays here where he literally won the game single-handedly.

@@wadewilson8011 of course I’ve watched. DT was absolutely deserving of that gold jacket. If we’re comparing why people view LT higher than DT, you have to be critical of small things. LT did everything at a high level while being impactful when it mattered most. DT was arguably a equal in pass rush but a massive liability in the run game. You hear guys from the era talk about that when discussing playing the chiefs of the time. He also wasnt able to lift the team to the playoffs and beyond like LT. Whether fair or not the fact LT has the mvp and super bowls to match while being the focal point of the team matters. Thats all i was trying to point out. Its not like DT is some bum. The man is a legend. Looking back at it, it seems you were strictly speaking about a pass rusher effecting the game not total ability so maybe the comparisons i made arent needed. When i said young btw i meant he still had alot left in the tank. For reference

Excellent videos. Having watched almost all of the Giants games he played and his rookie preseason, it's was fun watching your reactions to LT. You can look it up, LT wore number 98 in his first preseason he played. He changed the game. He was definitely larger than most of the others and was close to the size of your typical center or DE. Played at about 240 - 255 @6'3" if I remember. Thing was they had to commit a tackle to him, and he would move from side to middle and exploit fear and holes from NYs 3-4 defense. He was great in getting back on coverage too even when committed. He could dead stop the run and end run as well as buck up the middle. He could do it all.

LT was an outside Linebacker and not a D lineman or Edge Rusher. He weighed around 245, was faster than most RB’s, was absolutely fearless and could deal with pain that would cripple a horse. Jim Brown is often considered the greatest RB in NFL History and most consider LT the best defensive player ever. Few athletes in the history of the NFL have impacted the game like LT did. My favorite LT moment was when he lit up Bo Jackson on a sideline tackle no one else could have made on Bo. He then offered Bo a hand, helped him back up, smiled and told Bo “Welcome to the NFL Buddy!”.

He was and is in the top three players whoever played the game and myself, Bill Parcells and Bill Belichick agree and we all think he may very well be THE greatest. Aaron Donald ? Pffft. Let's see him dominate for 10 years. Been a Giant Fan since '56. And Roger Craig soiled himself whenever they played the Giants . In '86, the Giants knocked out 8 starting QB's including 2 on the Cowboys.

LT was the FIRST EDGE RUSHER. He invented the position and was the first to be called an edge rusher. He remains the #1 defensive football player. He made the game so exciting. Lawrence Taylor was the most feared player ever to play the game. Ray Lewis said LT should be on the Mount Rushmore of defensive players.

As a life long NY GIANTS fan with LT leading in the 80's they had the best LB crews through the decade with the Crunch Bunch LT, Harry Carson, Van Pelt, Carl Banks, Pepper Johnson, Gary Reasons 👍✊️👏👏👏

LT wasnt just a pass rusher. He was an absolute terror on the field. Anywhere you put him. Privledged to be able to watch every single game he played. He changed the way you needed to block and every team is STILL looking for the next LT

People need to realize that LT was way ahead of his time. The guy was 6'4" 250 lbs and ran a 4.5/ 40 yard sprint. The combination of size, speed, and strength was unmatched back then. He was so fast that lineman could never really block him and he could run down running backs from behind. Teams would have to change their offensive schemes to prepare for him. He was a massive addition on that defense which was already excellent at the time. You would be hard pressed to find another player that made such an impact during their time in the league. One of the best defensive players to ever play the game.

What's even more amazing is that LT wasn't a workout warrior with the weights and didn't take care of himself off the field they way he should have. But the man could break down film (see the Belichick interview) and knew exactly what each man's job was in their defensive scheme. His mental IQ along with his physical (6-3, 240lbs, 4.5 in the 40!) freakishly strong made him so dominant

He played in 80s -92 with a packed NFC w/ three dynasties competing at once all w great D's. 49ers- 4 Superbowls, 4 Wins Redskins- 4 SBs, 3 Wins Giants. 2 SB, 2 Wins Bears 1 SB win & perhaps best defense ever in 85. Eagles 1 SB(81) And with Payton, Dickerson & Sanders.

The Sunday night game against the Saints in 88, the Thanksgiving Day game in 82, and the 86 game against Washington. 3 games he just completely owned. In a league full of badasses he was the baddest. All road games by the way.

LT CHANGED THE GAME. Left tackle became a premium position because of him. Bigger, faster O lineman were needed because of him. Edge rushers speed was now compared to him. He is the mold that today's defense is based on. We are used to seeing people do this now but LT was the first.

I got to watch “the minister of defense” Regg White down here in Neyland Stadium as a little kid. He was SO GOOD! How someone that big could move like that blew my mind. But Taylor in the pros had to be terrifying to those QBs. Came in with the hammer fist. He had to have broke a few collarbones and shoulders….had to!

There was a story where supposedly LT switched positions with another linebacker from another team, the new Orleans saints, temporarily. So while LT played linebacker on the down low, the other linebacker, Rickie Jackson played linebacker for the Giants on the dl.
