"You can beat a man by attacking his weakness you will break a man by attacking his strength"
Michael Irvin
Spoken like a champion....Watched every game....Vivid memories
damn...
You can also attack a man with a pair of scissors.
@@cyrillesu I knew someone would make this comment 😂😂
What does that mean
"Every 3rd down & 7. I would say Michael you run that slant or you go back to the ghetto."
That hits harder than any linebacker could.... except maybe LT
Michael didn't see those slants as fearlessness, but necessity.
That’s some real ish right there, I respect it 💯💯💯👊🏼
SFUSW 😂😂😂😂😃😃
Gypsy King Growing up among 17 kids in a 3 room house no wonder he said that. Fun Fact the original home of the Ghetto was Poland in the '40s during WW2
"You run that slant, or you go back to the ghetto". Respect.
COLD WORDS
Fr 💯
"Throw the slant, I'll go get it. I"ll. Go. Get. It." That's a fucking man among boys right there if I've ever seen one. The NFL is trying to eliminate blind hits on receivers and Michael Irvin embraced it cause it meant he could help his team, true legend
These stories make me wana cry, Im in Texas and I’m happy He put Texas on the map 🔥
@@470HELLEPHANT Born and raised in Dallas.. #88 was my childhood hero. Its not just the fact he was good but WORKED HARD. It made me be a worker in school when i didnt have the most talent.. Working man is the tough guy. 👍✌️
A WR screaming RUN THE FOOTBALL ALL DAY!!! I want that guy on my damn team
I don't care about his flamboyant shit but id take any receiver who says "let's run the slant I'll go get it" that's the guy I want on my football team.
true. He really was a tough guy. All these primadonna receivers today like Dez and Odell. They just fair weather dudes. Irv took the pounding and came back to make the next play.
Playmaker
I remember saying that and I got benched
“In any coverage”
Fr
He won championships with Miami in the 1980s
He wins 3 championships with the cowboys in 1990s
That's not a coincidence either.
@@bigred9991 Jimmy. Jimmy knew how to play to Michael’s strengths. It’s not surprising how that worked out.
He was a winner. Period.
I'm glad I got his Jersey on Christmas
Pretty sure he won state titles in high school.
The playmaker! Best receiver in Cowboys history.
3 time Superbowl winner... numerous franchise and league records...helped establish one of the greatest dynasties in NFL.
gets placed at #92... who makes this list?
Do you think 92 is bad? we are talking about the greatest players ever to play football.
He should be at least top 50
+IB Ouattara I don't think so, 92 is good place for him.
He played 12 years
+TheSpaceman031 ok
Michael Irvin was badass
The td catch in his first super bowl where he beat Williams is the greatest catch I've ever seen. He threw his leg up to shield the ball from Williams while he caught it. Amazing instinct.
I met Michael Irvin at a High School football camp. He is a very passionate person and very down to earth guy
"i'll go get, just put it up and i'll go get" and he did. one of the greatest to ever play and one of the greatest Cowboys of all time. My idol!
He ran many slants over the middle of the field and took many huge pops to keep drives alive. One of the absolute greatest wide receivers of all time, and if he had played for any other team than the Dallas Cowboys, then the bias against Dallas list maker would have had him placed much higher on this list.
I feel like Mike Irvin is like combining Marvin Harrison, Jerry Rice, and Steve Smith all into one person
Marvin Harrison is the best route runner I’ve ever seen, and jerry is the goat
Cowboys were a run first team when Mike was playing so if he say played for the 49ers he probably would've had better numbers than Jerry
Don’t forget issac Bruce
Irvin was more physical than all of those guys combined. He originated the physical superstar receiver. And in his best 8 seasons, he has a larger percentage of his teams receiving yards than any wr all time. Moss and rice behind him.
Person yeah players no.
I remember watching the game when Michael went down for the last time - running a slant like he always did. Brutal injury and was sad to never see him on the field again.
😢
I'll never forgive Eagles fans for cheering as he was lying on the field.
Never.
92? I would put him atleast 50
+Mitchell Lee You can't give me an L for speakin the Truth so stop trying bro
fr that's your daddy up there dez
TOP 20. 3 Rings!! Come on people.
i know
Cowboys Nation Calvin not even on this list
"Only Jerry Rice has more post season receptions." Yet one is #92 and the other is #1. Talk about bias.
Crackheads got less career receps than Larry Centers...what bias?
WTF are u talking about, the gap between Rice and Irvin is wider than you think!
vadimzdonutube it’s not 91 ranks wide at least put him in the top 70
Michael Irvin should be in the top ten.
Lmao what you're implying is a huge reach. In reality Irvin shouldn't even be on this list. TO or even Larry Fitz should have this spot when this list dropped
Grew up in Carrollton TX in the early 90's. Would see him driving that BMW M3 down Rosemead Rd often. Down to earth and friendly guy.
He was in The Longest Yard in 2005. My favorite movie ever
3:20 Starvation was the inspiration of his motivation. Michael Irvin had a chance to be a great player and made it happen.
There was no going back to the ghetto for The Playmaker.
michael lrvin is a savage
“You run that slant or you go back to the the ghetto” what a legendary line!
Top 5 play maker ever!!! Michael Irvin 88 club True Dallas Cowboy!!! Should be higher than this top 10 to me!!! #CowboyNation
May have been the best redzone receiver ever, but we'll never know since he never got an opportunity to do that. They just ran it in with Emmitt every time they got close. He could have been a touchdown machine under different circumstance.
Lmao!!!!! That was awesome. Irvin was an unstoppable rebel force and Troy rules
The disrespect for cowboys players is real. Michael Irvin is one of the top 5 greatest receivers of all time. I'd say He's 3rd best behind Jerry rice and Bob Hayes. He should easily be in the top 20.
Bob Hayes??? There are several receivers in NFL history who are alot better than Bob Hayes
Lmao top 10.oh boy top 15-20 yes no doubt...
@@jeremythompson9122 none of them have an Olympic gold medal and can literally claim they are the fastest man alive. hence the name bullet bob hayes.
@@jspntr Chris Johnson ran the fastest forty of all time. Given your logic, you would take CJ over Walter Payton, Barry Sanders, Jim Brown and Earl Campbell.
Bob Amazon did Chris Johnson have an Olympic gold medal for fastest all time. No disrespect to him. But no one except bob Hayes can claim that
"Let's not go too far" xD lol!!
Throw the slant ill go get it! I got chills
I'm not a cowboys fan and I think Irvin should be higher than 92
Amen!
Higher than Aikman imo.
This is one of my fav players in the NFL. I liked him when he played at the U (Miami). He was a beast at wideout, a definite #1 WR. Oh yeah and I am (cough) a Giant fan. Btw, Michael Irvin at #92. In the words of Vince Lombardi "what the h... is going on here?!!! 🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈💯💯🔥🔥
3:09 Candlestick I WAS THERE! Mike was COOKING Eric Davis that day. When he took that shot he got up and spiked the ball between Davis and Hall! OMG WE HATED THE PLAYMAKER IN SF!!! RESPECT 88.
This mans needs to be higher
Deserves a higher rank in this list tbh
That mustache is immaculate
Everyone likes to underplay Michael Irvin’s numbers, but remember that this was an extremely low volume passing offence. Aikman threw for 20 TD’s in a season once in his entire career. This offence was run through Emmitt Smith.
That's why Irvin's touchdown numbers are low, but he actually has really good peak yardage stats. Led the league in receiving in 1991 with 1523 yards and had over 1600 yards in 1995 while 2 other seasons over 1300 yards. In fact, Irvin's career average of 74.9 yards per game is the highest career receiving yards per game average for any receiver whose career ended before 2000.
Michael Irvin was such a great competitor with Miami Hurricanes and Dallas Cowboys !!!
I have NEVER seen a player with the passion that Michael played with. What a treat it was to watch him play!
I met him!! I shook his hand!!
92 maybe for the year 1992!!! Michael Irvin is a top 5 Receiver in any decade!!! He should be in the top 50 easy!!!
The spark to their engine!
#92 ARE YOU KIDDING ME !!!!!
The song at the beginning is perfect for him
Absolutely no one had/has more passion for football than Michael Irvin.
My favorite Cowboys player of all-time. An absolute legend. Complete travesty to be ranked this low.
I just love when he got rattled by Jerry Rice already training for next year.
My favorite player when I was a kid in the 90's
So people say Emmitt was great because of his line, Aikman was good cuz of Emmitt and Irvin and Irvin was only good cuz Aikman. What is this?
It is total BS, that f..king Dallas team was completely and utterly stacked with HOF players, they all were astoundingly talented.
What they don't understand is when Emmitt got to the 2nd level he was never brought down on the first hit, if he was 1 on 1 with a defender he's definitely getting by him with no problem. Besides all that, that great offensive line was only dominant for 5 years tops. They were atrocious after that. L. Allen was the only one of the 5 that was great for an extended period of time.
Before there was T.O. there was Michael Irvin......."Only Jerry Rice has more career post-season receptions than Irvin".....NUFF SAID!!!
He makes plays in the biggest stages at wide receiver for the cowboys in the 1990s
How can you not recognize him as one of the all time greats in the history of the game?
92? Really?
To even be considered or to make top 100 NFL players of all time is a huge achievement there is no to high or to low when it comes to the top 100 you either are one of the best or you're not Irvin is a great wideout top 12 or so all time and a great choice for top 100 but he's perfectly placed at 92
"I'll go get." Dude was a warrior.
Trash talking flamboyant but down right fabulous. He still is.
Niner fan here... He needs to be higher tbh lol
Hell ya, one of the greatest Cowboys ever.
Michael Irvin should be in the top 10.
I called Michael Irvin MONEY ! Great hands. Willing to sacrifice himself for The Catch. And definitely a TEAM PLAYER !! He ((always)) was the first fella to run over to congratulate any other team member who made a touchdown, or extra point, for the Cowboys. What A Guy !
One of my favorite players
HE SHUOLDVE BEEN HIGHER!!!!!!!!
Throw it up and he’s gonna go get it simple
Top 5 Reciver of all time. No doubt.
Press X to Doubt
Jerry Rice
Steve Largent
Don Hudson
Randy Moss
Larry Fitzgerald
Marvin Harrison
Lance Alworth
Terrell Owens
better than Micheal Irvin
@@dome-ozero4525 Rice Moss Fitz yes. Marvin? Lol no. TO? Questionable. As an Eagles fan I HATE Dallas but Irvin was amazing
Michael was “thee” playmaker always!
JUST THROW IT, I'LL GO GET IT. All you need to know. The man was a great receiver.
Michael was awesome
This is disrespectful. #92?
I’m trying to understand why Dez is wearing 88 and it not in the Cowboys stadium rafters
Irvin and Drew Pearson don't want the number retired; they want it to go to the next great Cowboys receiver (at least in theory).
Irvin was a beast he should be at least top 50 How in the world is Emmit #28 ???
Emmit should be #15 or lower , Michael should be in #50 or lower
Emmitt Smith shouldn't even be top 50. He was a system guy with a phenomenal offensive line. Switch places with Barry Sanders and Barry averages 2000+ yards a season and Emmitt is averaging 900 yards a season.
as a Jerry rice fan I hated Irvin but Troy said it best, when he's on your team you loved him. great leader , hard worker always showed up big game day. Troy has a good sense of humor, I wouldn't go that far.
One of the best wide receivers to ever play
The Playmaker
Only Jerry Rice and Randy Moss were better in my opinion
I’d have Cris Carter ahead of Michael Irvin. Best hands in the last 30 years. Had incredible sideline awareness. There’s reason why people say, “All he does is catch touchdowns.” The greatest quality a receiver can have is sure hands. Rice, Moss, and Carter had some of the best hands the game has ever had.
88 was a great receiver and really came to play post season. Go Cowboys!
Irvin was the leader of that team on the field. The guy ONLY cared about winning. Period. He was every bit as good as Rice. Check the tape of him at Miami. He took the secondary roll behind Emmit and never once cried about it. He would have much better numbers if not for the system and team he played for.
its crazy how he reminds me dez
Word lmao
Dez is not as fly as Mike.
AL football don't ever compare a bum like "trash bryant" to one of the greatest receivers of all time!💯
Except Irvin could actually catch the ball and back up all his talk.
No, Dez reminds you of Irvin😂
One of the things I loved about Michael was how tough he was, he was unafraid to go across the middle and not afraid to get hit
The Playmaker! 🐐
lol all of these players apparently need to be top 25, theres players we havent heard of that deserve those top 50 spots because they were greater than any player we watched and they started it all.
This list is created by exactly one person. There will be plenty of one hit wonders in the top 50, folks we hardly know who had one great season behind one great offensive line.
Where are the great blockers and kickers and centers?
Michael Irvin is a homie no doubt. Got loads of chicks and a golden jacket
Irvin was my dog. I love Irvin’s passion for the game. You could always count on Micheal catching the ball for first down on a slant.
Dez didn't disappoint with the number in his prime tbh. He's getting a little old now but he was solid for a bit amd was one of the best consistently...
That man showed up ready to play, every time.
“They trying to say we can’t run the damn ball!”
That alone shows he was about the team n not himself...
I have Michael Irvin and Troy aikmans signed jersey
Majority of the games played on turf!!
49ers Fan Here. Michael Irvin may have been a Prima Donna Diva but unlike most Diva's he was a great leader and was far from selfish! I'm not a fan at all, but can't deny how good he was.
He was flamboyant, but get him on your team now!!!
This is the most gruesome greatest NFL players video!⭐️🤠
iM WAITING FOR THEM TO REDO THE TOP 100 WITH BRADY AT 1 & MIKE AT LEAST TOP 25
I hated Irvin when he played for Miami Hurricanes in college.I was a BIG Oklahoma Sooner fan and for 3 straight years Michael and the Hurricanes KICKED Oklahoma ASS. Those were Oklahoma's only lose in those 3 years....Possibly stopping Oklahoma from winning 3 straight National Championships. When Irvin would make a BIG PLAY AGAINST Oklahoma he would always raise his arms high in the air after the play.....I hated that. But Oklahoma could not stop him Lol.
underrated
Michael is a top 5 wr of all time
This is gonna sound strange but I was Micheal Irvin fan and a life long Eagles fan . Lol
Michael Irvin the heart and soul of the Cowboys no doubt about it he's a playmaker for a reason
That ending thou... ;)
Way too low, fantastic WR who put up his numbers on a run first team and was an outstanding run blocker too. Very physical, a damn good athlete but it was his toughness that set him apart.
Stfu
Michael Irvin was so passionate and physical as a receiver that the NFL literally created the offensive pass interference penalty to stop him
92?!?! He is at least top 50
only 92 hes 1-50
He definitely better then Steve Smith
if your top 5 at your position you deserve to be in the top 30 at least
Michael, Hall of Fame is exactly where you belong. 🥇
You did the Gronk touchdown before the Gronk was even born! You are King.
I would have to put Michael Irvin a lot higher than 92. He wouldn't beat you with his speed because he wasn't the fastest but what one thing he did beat you with was his mind.
For what he did, how is he #92? Only Jerry was above him when he played
Michael Irvin what's up bro I was his quarterback Tom Brady 12 backup quarterback James Hernandez 41 ICEDADDY 41.
