The Lions are cursed with great players who had bad teams. Far too many were made Lions fans because of Barry Sanders and Calvin Johnson, but their careers were cut short because of the losing.
@@KobeJordanHakeemlol you missed his diss man I like that megatron light pmsl love it 😂he means like bud light or like Miller light or like mayonnaise light 🤣 complete genius diss😂
nah i understand the "diss". hes not even the lite version... hes not even a top 5 reciever in the current NFL get outta here with that. Hes trash@@GhostOfexistence-c7j
I remember that stolen touchdown against the bears when it happened. I mean it's megatron, the pass was complete, he caught the ball and willingly let go of it after feeling like he was down. That's one of those calls where even if you think it's borderline, you gotta factor in the individual greatness of the receiver involved in the play. Mind boggling call lol.
Megatron was badass AF, but Randy Moss was a different animal. Admittedly we got to see A LOT of GOAT receivers in that era Moss, Megatron, T.O., Larry Fitzgerald, Marvin Harrison. Justin Jefferson and Ja'Marr Chase might be the only receivers today on par with the entertainment value and elite athletic catching ability we got spoiled with.
@@javiersanchez1661 that opinion is in the minority sorry man lol. Objectively Megatron is the best and there's really nothing you can say that'll change that
@@thenickfoxx Nope Megatron was done after 9 years he wasn't going last much longer. His body was breaking down and he said it himself. Owens played 15 years and was on pace to break Rice's touchdown record. Probably would of threatened Rice's yardage record also. Megatron played in a pass all game offense same as Antonio Brown. You put Owens in that type of offense and he would of shattered the record books. I would take Julio Jones over Megatron🤣
Johnson was such a GREAT player. He and Barry Sanders, surrounded by futility. If you were any good you'd score.... gold... pure gold... 2:23 now that is a collision!
Calvin Johnson is the best wide receiver the NFL has ever seen. Size, athletic ability, hands, route running, everything. Throw anything to him, it's automatic. Throw it into triple coverage? He's got it. Not to mention he holds the single season receiving yards record. If he had a superbowl (team achievement), he'd be undoubtedly everyone's number 1 receiver I reckon. Put it this way, he was Randy Moss on steroids.
During training camp, Calvin Johnson would purposefully bail early on the bench press because he didn't want to destroy the confidence of his other receivers. Dude was a level above everyone else.
All these guys Peyton brings on they all have so much mutual respect for each other always look forward to these and I’m not even a pro football fan I only follow college
People usually say Jerry, Randy and T.O. are the top 3 WRs of all-time and even though I agree with that, Calvin Johnson is every bit as good as those guys and actually better in certain situations.
For as much as I went through [in the past] as a Chiefs fan, I can't imagine having Barry, Calvin and Matt and no hardware to show for it. All the skill positions that are supposed to count they have all-time superstars, but their legacy is the hard truth football remains a team game.
That tells you right there, the most important position is O line and D line. Who controls the line wins the game. Don't forget with Barry was the 3 receiver set H Moore, J Morton and B Perriman. QB S Mitchell.
I think the easiest way to fix the controversy about catch no catch in this case and future ones. The ground cannot cause a fumble (long long long standing rule). The ground cannot cause an incompletion after a completion. Calvin caught the ball, the ground made no football play to incomplete it.
What a waste of talents simply for landing in Detroit and not a real team. Imagine this guy at Indianapolis, New England, San Diego, Pittsburgh, or Seattle. So many championship teams would have been unstoppable with him. Legend.
I mean this in the best way possible. Watching Calvin Johnson Highlights is boring, bc he is just that much better than everyone else. You don't need to be flashy if you are an adult playing with kids.
I've seen Megatron in Atlanta and the car he was driving was a purple Ferrari. It had to be custom, because I have never seen a purple Ferrari before or since.
Nope... not even in top 10. His career was nowhere near long enough to be in top 5.. also WAYYY to many wide recievers that have been in the game that were more productive than he was....
Imagine if wed have picked up Peyton long before the stafford trade he could have been going all sheriff on the office and coaching staff his personality would've helped not to mention him and Megatron wouldve been deadly af 😂😂😂😂.
Lions are cursed...they had the greatest RB and the greatest WR and they still managed to stink *yes I know Rice is a greater WR overall...but if I had to choose a team to win a game if my life depended on it, it would be Megatron and Rice at WR
@CALVIN JOHNSON GET YOUR CLEATS AND PADS READY AN COME OUT OF RETIREMENT AND Play with lamar Jackson an get tHe RING YOU DESERVE BALTIMORE IS WAITIBG FIR U TO SIGN ON THE DOTTED LINE

Calvin is a legend and a great role model was my favorite player growing up
Same him Michael Vick and DeSean Jackson were my favorite offensive players. Used to try to play like all of them a lot playing street ball as a kid.
This is great! Calvin was 1 of a kind, very intelligent and extremely good athlete.
Calvin Johnson was the reason I became a Lions fan. Thank you Megatron.
I hope u switched teams now 😂
now you got jared goff and amon ra st brown lmaoooooooo

Seeing how dominant and ruthless he was on the field you would never think he was such a down to earth, kind-hearted human being. All the best Calvin🙏
Most football players are like this. Its just the bad ones that end up on the news and ESPN more
Man it was great to see Megatron play, on a historically bad (record wise) team the dude was the best in the league
Megatron was that guy. I respect his game and I'm a Packers fan
No I'm a packers fan
Once in a generation type player. People think DK is a freak WR and he’s not even in the same world as Megatron
Agreed
I think for the past 3 years I've called Metcalf Megatron light
thats disrespectful to megatron. he aint even close@@n1ghtwing012

Man i miss this dude he my number one favorite receiver! Being a lions fan been a fan of Johnson ever since he been in the league..

You put the right amount of height on that ball the only person coming down with it is Calvin Johnson. He was the definition of always open.
I want that hoodie!! Calvin thank you for your dedication and work.. LEGEND

Great interview. Calvin Johnson is missed in the NFL today
People usually say Jerry, Randy and T.O. are the top 3 WRs of all-time and even though I agree with that, Calvin Johnson is every bit as good as those guys and actually better in certain situations.
Anyone who puts TO in that convo over Calvin needs to be drug tested.
Best wr of all time don’t argue wit me
Love Calvin Johnson! Go tech 🐝 🐝
Greatest freak-of-nature wide receiver since Randy Moss!
“So you liked Megatron… better than Butterfingers?”
Idk Peyton did he? 🤣🤣
@tomsmith4282 ik it’s still just a funny line

Welcome to my nightmare

I guarantee he could still play today and be a top 20 receiver
Thee Top 1 lol favorite player growing up
Facts
I bet Dan Campbell would give him a shot if he wanted to do it and got back into NFL shape
Dude looks like he still hits the weight room, wouldn’t take long to have him be up to par
stafford was epic with the lions - great qb - great content
Megatron!
If Calvin Johnson actually played on a good team and made the playoffs for most of his career, won a Super Bowl he would be the G.O.A.T at (WR) 🐐🏈.
No -one is saying Joe Thomas and Calvin Johnson are some of the best to suit up in their positions on crappy teams.
@grayson7844 imagine Rodgers and Megatron together. Would've been unstoppable
Great stuff; killed me withe the Buttercup reference Peter, i mean Peyton Manning
He could come back right now and nfl teams would still offer
Megatron was the goat in terms of raw ability. Absolute freak of nature.
I love his sytle.
That duo would be great!
Loved the buttercup/princess bride reference!
That was the exact play I thought of when asked the question about best catch I was at that game it was crazy.
😂😂😂😂 this is so good
I think the easiest way to fix the controversy about catch no catch in this case and future ones. The ground cannot cause a fumble (long long long standing rule). The ground cannot cause an incompletion after a completion. Calvin caught the ball, the ground made no football play to incomplete it.
What a waste of talents simply for landing in Detroit and not a real team. Imagine this guy at Indianapolis, New England, San Diego, Pittsburgh, or Seattle. So many championship teams would have been unstoppable with him. Legend.
Could've had a ring if Detroit knew how to build a team around him and Stafford.
@udokee7409 Didn't the Chargers make it to the AFC Championship game with Rivers and LT? the Lions with Stafford and Megatron never made it that far.
@udokee7409 lions havent won a playoff game sense 1991
I'm liking Omaha productions and what Peyton is doing; keeping recent retiree name alive...👍
Tough, tough, tough!
MVP
I mean this in the best way possible. Watching Calvin Johnson Highlights is boring, bc he is just that much better than everyone else. You don't need to be flashy if you are an adult playing with kids.
U had to be there for megatron #beast
I think their is a roster spot open for him in Detroit if he wants a ring.
That intro 🔥
I've seen Megatron in Atlanta and the car he was driving was a purple Ferrari. It had to be custom, because I have never seen a purple Ferrari before or since.
Imo megatron the greatest wide receiver but to most of yah he’s in your top 5 hopefully
Nope... not even in top 10. His career was nowhere near long enough to be in top 5.. also WAYYY to many wide recievers that have been in the game that were more productive than he was....
@@richardgrace5043 like who ?
@@richardgrace5043 ur laced he’s top 5 easy u have 0 football knowledge most talented WR ever foh
Definitely the greatest
@@richardgrace5043 you must be high
This has more production then i care to admit
Look at those hits to the knees. Ouch!!
but that play where Kam Chancellor punched the ball out of his hands at the goal line is still the most epic play...
Imagine if wed have picked up Peyton long before the stafford trade he could have been going all sheriff on the office and coaching staff his personality would've helped not to mention him and Megatron wouldve been deadly af 😂😂😂😂.
these are some large human beings.
Beast
Where did Megatron get that hoodie from tho
Called him butter fingers lol 😂😂😂 my personal favorite wr of all time Moss,Rice,T.O and Chad Johnson top 5
Need to get manning’s son some colts covers. Cmon man.
Imagine if he was in New England or New York he be the biggest name in sports back then 🤦♂️
Calvin would've lasted at least 3 or 4 more years with today's rules
He could still be playing. Dude is a genetic marvel.
That call was mind numbingly wrong and still makes me mad... can't even imagine how Megatron feels about it.
And just like that, we got bent over this year too.
0:48 unless it was revis
🐐
Megatron was like nothing I have ever seen, and I grew up watching Rice.
That's Marshall Manning he is telling the story to. Peyton's real son.
That’s rich coming from a bears fan who are the only nfc central team who haven’t had a stud WR … Brandon Marshall?
Yes Rice and Moss were better but I didn't fear them like Megatron. On my Mt. Rushmore.
Lions are cursed...they had the greatest RB and the greatest WR and they still managed to stink
*yes I know Rice is a greater WR overall...but if I had to choose a team to win a game if my life depended on it, it would be Megatron and Rice at WR
3:50 got robbed.
I was hoping this would get into hoe he overcame the original nickname
It was a catch
The Lions ruined 2 amazing careers and made them retire early.
Crazy how terrible the Lions Franchise is. Had Barry Sanders, Calvin Johnson, and Matthew Stanford, and still couldn’t win anything.
This man deserved a SB bar none
That’s not hard to figure out that was a catch
@CALVIN JOHNSON
