😂😂😂

He's scary fast at age 40, you can't say that with modern NFL players

"Tootsie Roll, baby--make you run fast."

Darrell Green was so fast for so long.

That man was running like he had rockets strapped to his feet. Crazy speed. And nothing but respect for his hustle every down. The man was a *menace* on the field 😂

Fr

Just imagine someone of his size playing RB tho he obviously got the speed

@@ghostintheshell3576 I'm imagining it and it's magnificent. Although realistically I don't think someone that size could sustain that level of speed for a whole game, but I bet Larry would prove me wrong.

I saw the video title and all I heard was the two of them together saying 'Larry Allen!'

I've seen it a dozen times and it just looks impossible. Allen was flat-footed when the DB was on a dead run.

No that was a linebacker

WOW I AGREE !!!! That was awesome ... on the greatest offensive line ever assembled by Minnesota LOL

Never give up on the play said Charlie Hustle.

@@dorionisntsteezy59 no the guy that was tackled was the guy who finished second, and the guy who tackled him was larry allen

The most run-downs on this video... Darrell Green- world class sprinter and defensive back and member of the HOF... Second most.. A punter for the Colts that even Colts fans wouldn't recognize if they were standing next in line to him in the grocery store...

I was just typing “hey man good for Hunter Smith.”

Especially given that he was standing flat footed to start and didn't have a great angle for pursuit. I have no idea how he was able to accelerate like that.

Absolutely. I always liked Darrell Green and Sneaky Ed too!

@@mastick5106 he was covering 4 yards a stride, absolutely unbelievable.

I didn’t know that a big man like that could move so fast. I do remember seeing Tony Boselli, the Hall Of Fame offensive lineman was also over 300 lbs and he once ran down a DB to save a TD. Darrell Green wasn’t 300 lbs, but it was how often he ran down some of the best RBs in the NFL at the time. Running down Tony Dorsett and Eric Dickerson was insane at that time. He made several other amazing stops to prevent TDs. That’s why Green was a first selection Hall Of Fame selection in his first year of eligibility. What was really amazing is how far he was behind some of those runners and made up the gap in record time. Green nearly caught world class sprinter Ron Brown, but needed about another 5 yards to close the gap, but Brown made it across the end zone before Green could agh h him. Many times it is claimed that Brown outran Green that day, but if you watch the footage, Green was closing the gap and most definitely would have stopped Brown if there were five more yards before the end zone.

​@@RoarOfWolverineI remember when he nearly caught Ron. It happened on a Monday night and if there was one man who I thought could beat Green in a sprint race in the mid to late 1980's, it's Ron Brown.

He was the ultimate example of a guy who lost a step as he got older, but had way more than one to give.

He was fast but overrated. He had an angle and a head start on the Dorsett play that made him famous.

​@Christopher Tracy are you kidding me?? He may have had a slight angle on THAT play, but seriously. He didn't need it. He just happened to have it. He was gaining so fast, even if he didn't have an angle he was going to catch him. Darrell Green was the fastest man in the NFL for well over a decade.

@@christophertracy2807overrated? Lol. He came from behind on TD… not to mention the other rundowns they showed. Whatever…

@@christophertracy2807 the same Darrell Green that won multiple NFL Fastest Man competitions in the 80's and 90's when Players like Deion, Jerry Rice, Bo Jackson was in the league. Yea ok that overrated

Julio could absolutely truck people

I swear Julios entire job was fixing the play after the interceptions thrown at least once every game 😂

Ben Watson catching champ Bailey was better

That’s Budda Baker…

I loved the twitter exchange between Budda and D.K.😁

36:06 DK!

He had a legitimate shout for Super Bowl MVP in XLII. Great player.

Absolute freak of nature. One of those guys that looks like a man playing amongst boys.

Was looking for the love for that play. He had that hustle in a 19 point deficit with 6:23 to go too, pretty sick

I'm pretty sure he had more than six in his NFL career.. In my opinion Darrell Green was the fastest man to ever play in the NFL.

33:05 It was like he ran away from the play just to get enough momentum to lay him out.

Thanks President Bush, for starting a war in Iraq for illegal and made-up reasons to help his corporate benefactors. Thanks for opening up that whole second war that took away the majority of troops, vehicles, armor, helicopters, planes, satellite coverage, bribes, humanitarian aid, spies, and everything in between from Afghanistan that desperately needed additional support to fully rat out the Taliban and keep them gone. Thanks for allowing the actual terrorists to spawn and fester in Afghanistan while your companies like Haliburton rake in the big dollars. Thank you for tricking Americans into serving in the military because they thought they would be fighting for a good cause, and instead it turned out Bush only used them as corporate enriching goons, entirely disposable and discarded once they left service. Thanks for covering up the trauma done to this country and its people by demanding media could no longer cover the caskets coming off the planes because it was too embarrassing to your administration. Thank you for trying to cover up the circumstances of Tillman's death. You were such a good Administration, Bush. We should thank everyone for serving under him to support his and his cronies' interests. Or, maybe, you don't thank people serving in the military because it isn't going to be for a good cause.

Really? I have my doubts on that one lol.

@@mikepalmer2219u better believe it. I know that Darrell did run a 4.5 forty on his 50th birthday, so I have little doubt he can still run a 4.6 in his 60s. He played for the Redskins well into his 40s. Darrell is a legend and probably the fastest player ever in NFL history. Look, six of the highlights in this video were his, more than any other player.

@@RoarOfWolverine that is impressive.

@@mikepalmer2219 I will put my money on Green. I would never bet against him. From what I hear he is still faster than hell!

I was a cowboys dan but Darrel green as all my respect. The man was a beast.

😂😂😂😂

Hilarious

Well, Julio Jones needs to get at least an honourable mention.

What school did he go to? 😂

@@terry7907definitely

He was drastically underrated

@@kennondosher-rp4mw one of the most consistent DB’s in NFL history. He was last playing at 42 at a high level.

DG could have filled this whole video

DK metcalfs tackle actually saved it. Cardinals went for it on 4th and goal and got stopped

Don't matter these were great plays. Don't be a hater.

@@gabrielrizo3116 no I’m talking about the team with the player that got chased down, and props to the guy that caught him for saving a touchdown that would’ve been scored if he got to the end zone the first time.

@@gabrielrizo3116 reading

I know the Boswell tackle on Erickson was a four-point swing, as the Bengals couldn't punch it in and had to settle for a field goal. That four-point difference was also the Steelers' margin of victory. Add in Boswell's six field goals (five from 40+ yards) and it's easy to see why he got a game ball that day.

O believe they made those illegal after Joey Browner broke a dude leg . Joey was a marital arts dude strong and didn't back down from anyone.

with a Ref in his way!

I remember this play. Champ Bailey is really fast but what a shock Watson was. The camera was on Champ and out of nowhere, like a blur, ambush! It was a great game. I’m a Broncos fan so the interception was sweet.

And ball went through end zone, should have been a touch back for the Pats

As a Cowboys fan, we should be annoyed by the turnover but we’re actually thankful LOL BC we got to see Larry do that lol

and... I'm not sure the guy was actually down. It seems like he landed on Payton Manning but not the ground.

@@trackcoachmac If you stop trying to advance and/or are ruled down, you're down. Most likely, the guy's forearm or knee scraped the ground at some point though.

Yeah, Farrell was a first year HOF selection for a reason. He may well be the fastest player ever in NFL history. He won the Fastest Man In The NFL all four years he competed. He opened his rookie season by chasing down Tony Dorsett on the opening night of 😮Monday Night Football. He was something to watch.

I think it was XLI... super bowl XL was when the Seahawks were ROBBED. But we finally got one in XLVIII. Let us not speak of what happened the year after.

@epa316 You're right, I thought I had changed it, but apparently I didn't. What can I say? It was Trump's fault.

@epa316 Oh God, unfortunately my team was on the receiving end of that country ass whipping. What an embarrassing situation. THE ONE SUPER BOWL in the cold. Who gets it? The worst cold weather QB in the NFL. Two points for you: 1. Read Joe Buck's book, Lucky Bastard. He talks about that game. He married a former broncos cheerleader and all week she was bragging (about my team). So then Buck went to do the pregame interviews. The Broncos are all clowning around, being idiots, Manning will score six touchdowns...blah blah. So then he goes to interview the Seahawks. Cam Chancellor walks in like some prison just let him out. Slams a chair down two inches from Buck. Then Sherman, then Thomas, etc... Buck asked, "how will the game go?" Chancellor: "Well, Manning will hit DT across the middle, and Earl is going to smash him right in the fucking ribs. Then Welker will get it and will kill that little MFer." Buck went back home and said, "Your team is going to get the dog piss beaten out of them". 2. On the Marshawn Lynch thing, sore subject, I know. No one ever considers the possibility of Marshawn Lynch fumbling. I did. And it's a closer call than you think. There was about a 6% chance of Wilson throwing an INT, and about a 4.5% chance Wilson or Lynch fumble. It's closer than people think. Plus, isn't it smart to throw when everyone expects run? I don't know. I hate Pete Carroll, like seriously I have pure wrath for that douche canoe, but I don't think it was automatically a bad call. What do you think?

@@Mr.MikeBarksdale On #2, Lynch DID run the ball, and got taken down at the 1. He is Beast Mode, but he does get stuffed sometimes, and he does fumble sometimes. I think Brandon Browner on NE’s defense, who had been on the Seahawks team the year before, clued them in to watch out for the slant pass. Belichick is lucky that Butler made that interception, or he would have been roasted for not calling a timeout and preserving some time. But whatever; it was a long time ago. Our team is getting better, and we still have the draft.

#1 "Almost" to me...Larry Fitzgerald in Super Bowl 43 almost chases down James Harrison...would've changed the game.

No, he was a stupid man, who bought into a bunch of fantasy military nonsense, losing his life.

that dude made plays.

The line backer caught the ball on the run and Larry started from a standing stop.

DK was more impressive easily.

I remember seeing an NFL films thing on that once. Watson said something like "I had a high school coach who told me that sometimes it's not about size or speed, athleticism or talent. Sometimes, if you want to win, you just have to be the one that tries the hardest."

Omg i knew that had to be on here I've been telling ppl about that play for years.

@@ltjgambrose kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jtmKdrervrSmgXk.html "Something like that ... doesn't take a whole lot of talent. It's just effort."

The ball was put at the one yard line

@@ltjgambrose kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jtmKdrervrSmgXk.htmlsi=3zjK0axpwqbDHBjD Yep. "Stuff like that doesn't take a whole bunch of talent ... it's just effort.

Barry Sanders used to get caught a lot from behind. Probably the only flaw of his game

Sure, but how the heck did he get in this video?? He chases down what looks like a defensive tackle who had only gotten about 25 yards with the ball, moving in slow motion?

Darrell Green was a cornerback, fam

Safety wouldn’t have been his best spot. A ton of sped plays corner. Rod Woodson ( we know Green beat him in a race) lost a step and was very good hitter and could pick off a present from Santa. Green and Deon were very fast I’ll take Rod and no one is wrong

That was fair game back then

@@truthiscensored I know it was since the Horse Collar penalty started being enforced in 2005. I was just commenting on the fact that there were a bunch of them but never once referred to them as a penalty.

🤣🤣

Lol

What , stop telling secrets.
