I've said it before, and I'll say it again! This is the absolute best channel for NFL content!!! I love every upload, guys, and I look forward to every upload. There is nothing better than getting home from work and relaxing with one of your videos!! Please make more long form content with commentary! It's simply amazing. Nothing else compares with these types of videos! Great work as always!!
LC Greenwood needs to be in the hall of fame. 6 pro bowls, 2 first team all pros, and 4 Super Bowl wins. If those don't get you in canton, then the hall of fame is a joke
I remember Jamal Lewis had an incredible season in 2003 when he rushed for 2,066 yards, making him one of the few players to join the 2,000-yard club. He also set a then-NFL record with 295 rushing yards in a single game against the Cleveland Browns🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈
I'd never heard of Larry Centers before - that's really interesting! I spend lots of time reading up about great players of yore and somehow he evaded my notice. This is why I love this channel and show
Can’t believe they even have Shockey on here.. he was jimmy graham, before jimmy graham was a SS.. It’s like saying we’re going to forget jimmy graham in 10 years 😂😂
@@SM-bi7bidude, what are you on about?! Cmon now. You know Shockey was a monster. If you don’t like him, that’s cool. Lots of people didn’t. But you can’t deny his time with NY was legit.
Most definitely a Steelers fan up here though but, shoutout to Todd Heap....Dude was definitely underrated. Don't know how I haven't seen him on these forgotten players episodes.
A few good players that deserve mention in my opinion: Merton Hanks: Tim McDonald who they mention was good in San Francisco, but when I watch clips of the 90’s Niners on defense, I don’t see it thrown to Hanks’ side of the field very much. Made four all pro teams in the mid 90’s. Marques Colston: One of the best skill position players in recent decades to not make a pro bowl. Diron Talbert: According to unofficial sack stats, he has more sacks in his best eight seasons combined than Merlin Olsen and almost as many as Bob Lilly in his eight best seasons. Fred Dryer: Became an actor after playing of course, but also was a pretty good pass rusher. Had 103 sacks unofficially for the Giants and Rams, including 15 in a second team all pro season in 1974. Keith Lincoln and Paul Lowe: One of the great backfield tandems of the 1960’s. In particular on the AFL side.
London Fletcher is one of the most underrated players of all time. Great numbers, never missed a game...200+ starts consecutive. How is this man not in the HOF. Crazy
These vids alone are enough to keep their careers alive forever, hopefully many of these players will be enshrined in the Hall of Fame within the next 15-20 years.
Everson Walls may not be as widely remembered as some other NFL legends, but his contributions to the game and his impressive career certainly deserve recognition. Being undrafted from Grambling State didn’t stop him from being a great player in the league. He was remembered for leading the NFL in interceptions 3 times and being selected to multiple Pro Bowls showcases his talent and skill. His Super Bowl win with the New York Giants is another highlight that shouldn't be overlooked🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈
I've been doing a project where I catalog the most valuable player for each jersey number for each franchise. Have y'all honored Lemar Parrish yet? He made 8 Pro Bowls with Cincinnati and Washington in the 70s and I'd never heard of him until the other day
Mark Gastineau is sometimes overlooked despite his impressive career. He was a dominant force as a defensive end for the New York Jets. He was part of the famed "New York Sack Exchange," which also included Joe Klecko, Marty Lyons, and Abdul Salaam🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈
As a DB in my youth, Everson Walls and Tim McDonald were my two favorite players back then. So cool they were both in some random video I was half paying attention to. Both could dominate a game. I was so happy they each won late-career Super Bowls. I got to meet Mr. Walls several times at Cowboys functions and still have a football signed by him.
The juke Robert Smith puts on John Lynch at 18:05 is filthy 😂 and the one right after on Mark Carrier is even better. Sheesh One of my favorite lesser known very good players. Looks like he's running so casually, yet he was one of the best backs in the league in the late 90s.
@DurellPowell-j9m true I have seen him on the ground grasping at air just as often as he's laying someone out. Barry put nasty work on him once too but barry did that to everyone
I think people really underrate Joe Theismann. We talk/laugh about guys who don't want to run a route as a QB like Jay Cutler, or dunk on a guy like Richardson for taking a play off. Joe came into the league, there was no path for him to be the franchise QB. So what'd he do? I'm frustrated, get me out on special teams. I'll practice punting and be the emergency punter. Let me run a couple routes. It's a run play, I'll throw a block I'm a part of this unit too. This cat wanted to play ball. There are players you could question their motivation or toughness or commitment to their team but its hard to argue against that dude. I think that got lost in a bit of his legacy due to the dudes mouth and the whole leg thing.
Best FA Signings in Falcons history: 1. The Burner 2. Jessie Bates 3. Tony G 4. John Abraham 5. Devin Hester Still salty we couldn’t get Burner and Tony a ring
Us Chiefs fans definitely remember T-Rich. He was awesome. And, even though I loathe the Cowboys, I live in the Dallas area, and met Everson Walls 10 years ago on my birthday. The store I worked at at the time had him in for an appearance, he told everyone that was in his line to sit down next to him to get a photo with him. I had him write "Happy birthday" on my photo.
Ravens fan.. The incredible thing about Jamal Lewis is that everyone KNEW that offense was going to run. The plan was to run run run and win 13-6. The passing offense was just supposed to not lose the game.
"These players aren't your hall of famers" *intro then shows (I believe) london fletcher, whom should definitely wind up in Canton* Also, karl mecklenberg should be in the HOF
Unfortunately it gets harder and harder to get into the Hall of Fame as your time post retirement goes by; only a couple senior inductees each year compared to 5-6 newer ones
Michael Turner was indeed a force to be reckoned with during his NFL career. Known as "The Burner," Turner played for the Atlanta Falcons and San Diego Chargers. His powerful running style and ability to break tackles made him a key player for his teams. Did y’all know he had an impressive career rushing average of 4.5 yards per carry!🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈

Maybe I'm too stuck in 15-20 years ago, but how has anyone forgotten Nnamdi Asomugha by now 😅
Absolutely not lol.
After moving around the league he was “exposed” as a (VERY good) system CB who was in the best position to succeed while with the Raiders
Nnamdi on Kroll show was Hall of fame worthy
@rochahouse4883 Oh yeah he's an actor now! I'd love to see him in larger roles

Jermey Shockey was insane, he’d pop off someone’s head just to gain a extra yard
Best series ever
These vids alone are enough to keep their careers alive forever, hopefully many of these players will be enshrined in the Hall of Fame within the next 15-20 years.
Pickens, Jeff Blake, and those handful of games from Boomer Esiason were the few bright spots for those Bungles teams.
I love the Chicago Bungles
The 97 Bengals showed what they could do with just DECENT QB play. Esiason was awesome in his swan song.
