Hey guys, if you want to tweet this out to Shannon Sharpe so he can see it, click this link: twitter.com/TheFlightMike/status/1394404153443504135 and hit me with a like and RT! :)
definitely a h.o.f.'er..no doubts necessary
@@jinavl Facts, he deserves it.
we should cover Ray Lewis
@@zemarionfinnell7833 I think you should cover Kam Chancellor. Amazing player.
@@stevejohnson4404 yea ik
He should be in The Hall of Fame. He's a top receiver and a monster receiver in any era.
I wish so to but to short of a career to do so:/
@@aivan3298 haven’t watched the video I assume it’s sterling sharpe ?
@@snoozy7467 yes an amazing man
@@aivan3298 Agreed Gayle Sayers carrer was short too. It seems Sterling Sharpe missed his window? Yet when I think of dominant receivers that have not made it he's on a short list. Otis Taylor is another example. Not many 6ft 3in 215lb recivers in 1968 that ran like they were shot out of a cannon. He was the new prototype receiver in late 60's.
@@aivan3298 both Gale Sayers and Terrell Davis played the exact same years as Sterling Sharpe and both players are in the Hall of Fame. It’s extremely hard to get in with a short career but not impossible.
that hall of fame speech by Shannon is the all time best, and that quote about Sterling still makes me tear up.
Just because he wasn't media friendly that's bulljive.
Me too. He wasnt saying anything but facts
I couldn't stand Shannon. But damn I love that speech.
Fuck the rules induct the man
Really ? Maybe - if you actually believe this - you should check out "Mean" Joe Green's HOF speech - or
Jackie Slater's speech - Yes he was a great player but if you can't handle a helmet to helmet blow then you shouldn't be in the NFL - How many hits did Stallworth or Swann or
Jerry Rice take ? Countless -
Yes he was a phenomenal athlete - but so are ice skaters
Thank you for doing this story. People today don’t understand how dominant he was and how quickly his career was ended. Truly one of the greats to ever play
Thank you for stating:
THE 100% FACTS!!!
man, I never saw him play, but dude was putting 2022 great numbers in the 90s. this "longevity clause" those voters have should not apply when someone is forced to retire. dude was a monster for 7 years and thats enough for a golden jacket
I’m old enough to have seen him play : the guy was a monster on field , he had everything hands , speed , finesse , strong , the complete football player . And when a hall of famer says he was 2nd best player in the family , you know the guy was no joke ! He def is a H O F er !
He had a Hall of Famer Career. If Terrel Davis got in, NO excuses for Sterling not being in
Facts there’s some players who I’m baffled made it in over sterling sharpe
That’s for real mind blowing
I said the same thing. If Davis got in, then Sterling should get in too.
Davis 2rings helped him ALOT
💯💯💯
Sterling was so good, so classy and so 90s. The mustache, the big pads, random jersey# in the 80s? Pure 90s.
@@justinusberger3933 don’t be a meanie
@UC_bVLkkH02AD0afcGIsfAEQ more of a drip than a drool.
Yea and we’re left with his speech impediment, douche of a brother announcing on TV.
@@zombiebats52 “a meanie”? How old are you?
#84 is not random for a WR at all....
One of the most popular and worn numbers....
If Sterling Sharpe played for the 49ers in the late 80's or Dallas in the early 90's, he's in the hall of fame. He was a one man show on offense in Green Bay. They had no consistent QB and no threat in the backfield. Teams knew in order to stop the Packer offense, you had to stop Sterling. 7 seasons-595 rec-8134 yds-65 tds. He's a Hall of Famer in my book.
Fr he put those number up with nobodys he only had farve for like 2 season
That's the reason he had monster numbers. The Green Bay Packers quarterbacks, Farve and Majakoski didn't have many other options.
@@VictorLopez-ff1mf Maj, wasn't as Bad as people over exaggerate him too be.
Was he great no, am I taking away from how difficult Sharpe had it no.
But Maj was decent, he wasn't Brett or Aaron but decent.
Can you imagine if he made it to the prime Favre era?
He got hurt right when Favre stepped into his prime (95).
18 fucking tds tho in 94 when Brett was still just coming into his role as a star qb
I'm a Bears fan and growing up in the 80's and 90's, during the old "Black and Blue" Division games, two players I had the utmost respect for a rival players was Barry Sanders and Sterling Sharpe. Game changers. I watched them both torch my team backthen and when I found out why I didn't see 84 for GB (don't get it twisted, can't stand GB lol), it kinda took something out of it for me then. It was a shame he got hurt right before they went on to Brett's first SB. If he was still there, Favre would've got more than 2 shots. He belongs in the Hall
This is exactly why Shannon Sharpe gave his first Super Bowl ring to Sterling (the irony being the fact that that ring was won against Sterling's former team).
love green bay, always tell the 3 bears joke to Bear fans LOL
@SftSidelines - As a Packers fan, I approve this message! And, the Bears still suck! haha
Legend in my eyes, too bad some people don't recognize Sterling. Glad you did Mike. Very underrated receiver that should be in the HOF.
Never heard of the guy.... not flashy like Shannon, I guess.
@@xzqzq he broke the receptions record twice. and definitely not flashy, just business.
When I was growing up, Sterling was my hero. He kept his mouth shut. He was fearless. And he let his actions do all the talking for him. If there is any justice, Sterling should absolutely be in the hale of fame.
I agree,but keeping your mouth shut isn't a criteria.
@@scenariomckinney True. But it made him more mysterious and scary. Like a volcano ready to erupt.
@@jeremybertrand8270 I get it.
scenariomckinney not a criteria. But humility is always more respectable than being obnoxious or arrogant haha
the catch in the back of the endzone to beat the Lions in the playoffs made me jump through the roof.
Thanks for making this video!! Sterling Sharpe was my favorite player back in the 90s. It's such a shame that he couldn't play with Favre longer. That was such an awesome duo to watch. He's one of the greatest WRs in NFL history and so many people today don't even know who he was.
I remember sterling carrying players after the catch, including linebackers. Absolute beast. My early years watching football were the sterling Sharpe years.
As a Chicago Bears’ fan, I saw up close Sterling’s game. He was that dude. Him not being in the hall is a travesty.
I'm with you
As if any other fan couldn’t see him “up close” lmfao
What do you think about Devante Adams?
Respect to true Bears fans who can acknowledge greatness!
@@frankvigliotti6517 up close as in more often than teams that don't play against GB every year. His comment made sense, you apparently aren't familiar with the phrase. You just embarrassed yourself. Congratulations.
If you're old enough to remember him playing, you know he was the best. I care very little for Shannon Sharpe's banter on television, but he's being completely honest about his brother, and it gives me solid respect for him. Rice would probably be involved in a debate had Sterling played a full career, since more than likely, Sterling and Bret Favre would have taken away one of Frisco's Lombardis.
I'm born in 1986, one of my earliest memories as a tortured Lions fan, was it 91 or 92 getting toasted by Sterling Sharpe and crying to my dad about it and he told me get used to it
I’m a Lions Fan born in 82’...Your Dad was dead on...He gave us Hell💯
It's tough being a Lions fan. They will never win until the Ford family sells the team...which will NEVER happen.
Agreed. The last time the Lions began getting competitive, they fired their head coach. The Fords can't seem to get it right. I'm a Vikings fan, but half my family roots for the Lions (the other half are Packers fans). I root for the Lions whenever they don't play my team and especially when they make the playoffs. The Vikings haven't won more than a single playoff game in over 40 years, and the Lions have only won once in that entire span and not a single NFC North crown. It's like the Fords hate winning...
Shannon saying he’s the 2nd best player in his family pulls are your heart strings a bit.
Kinda but everybody always knew this like it was never even debatable. Like if TJ Watt kept up his production and made hall of fame over JJ nobody would ever think Tj was the best Watt brother.
This whole speech was tearjerker certified
@@Billabongbabalog #FACTS I promise.
It's literally never pulled at my strings. If something as small as this pulled at my strings I couldn't imagine how soft my life would be.
@@brayallen7290 damn ur hard bro.
Sterling Sharpe was an absolute Athlete. I remember watching the game when he broke his neck. Without seeing more than 1min of this video I can say that i think the NFL screwed him and I think he may have even had to convince Shannon to continue his career pursuits anyway.
Love to the Sharpe family! Mad Respect!
Dude broke his neck and the next week had 145 yards and 3 TDs... dude was an absolute unit
@@brianchaney8364 nice! Thats a sad situation for Edwards though.
@@sterlingwilliams8645 * That's HALL of FAME.
They both played college at South Carolina on the same team and the same graduating year 1987. If i remember correctly both Brad Edwards and Sterling Sharpe were the only 2 All Americans for the Gamecocks that year that season and that team was loaded with talent.
Back when the Packers drafted receivers in the 1st round
Haha...true
I remember when it was him and Robert Brooks. Deion even said it he was one of the toughest WRs to play against. I dot t care what anyone says the best two WR in the 90s was Jerry and Sterling. And I am a Cowboys fan I remember watching highlights and thinking all Sterling does is catch touchdowns. And that’s before Cris Carter.
Whenever I see videos about Sterling Sharpe I click instantly!!! Thank you so much for the continual love to a great often forgotten player. He is still my FOAT!!!
What does *F.O.A.T* mean??!
@@leonardobraynen1524 Favorite Of All Time lol was it that hard to figure out???
Sterling was a freaking monster. A MONSTER. It's a shame he is not even close to get to the Hall.
To make his numbers even more amazing the Pack didn't have any other dominate players so he had a double team on every play.
Cover Darrell Green dude played starting cb until 42 years old , fastest man in nfl history, dude still ran 4.4 on his on his 50th birthday. But also he zero controversy with him so alot of people don't even remember him. Also he was Champ Baileys mentor in his first few years.
Eagles fan here. I second the motion. He's incredible
He is one of my favorite NFL players of all time. He was there for all of Washington's Super Bowls. Redskin Legend.
Was green faster than james jet ? oh my god just as you think you know a players history some one tells you of another supreme athlete i shall study this player my friend love to watch the NFL and the talent in it never ever surprises me ! god bless AMERICA ........raiders fan ENGLAND .
@@cormacvillanasco3924 he was drafted a few months after their first super bowl win . So unfortunate he only has 2 rings
@@shifty1927 You're right he was '83 draft class, which was the year they won the super bowl over the dolphins, which is why I got confused. He was a franchise staple for 20 years though.
Sterling Sharp was the G.O.A.T. when it comes to wide receivers that played in the NFL… HANDS DOWN!!!
He was a great player not the GOAT though.
Sharpe*
I remember years ago hearing stories about how sterling was the strongest player on the packers, could bench press over 500lbs, crazy strong.
Matt Millen would mention every time he got assigned to a Packers game how Sterling benched over 400. He didn't do max just reps so it's safe to assume he could've done 500 since he was doing over 400 with reps. Insane strength for a guy his size
His little brother sterling is country strong too
This breaks my heart that Sterling will never make it. He was the best wr i have ever seen as a Packer fan. There are many you could mention since his time, but to me none compare to his.
Deion said rice sterling then a big drop off
He was more talented then rice & work ethic almost as good (rice maybe the greatest work ethic in football history)
Too strong to bump & run across the middle too 2 guys to take him down he caught everything won every 50/50 ball
& then once you think you had him figured out the next play he blows right by you for a TD
& this is from prime time
@@michaeltabor9596 and being 2nd to Rice is like being 2nd behind Jordan. no shame there.
“Like a freight train”. SS was awesome and loved listening to him cover football. So insightful and understood the game on so many levels.
Sterling was incredible! Such a shame of that injury. He would've been one of the greatest without doubt.
He was one of the greatest to me. This brings tears to me. I tried to forget how rotten this was and then I see this again and fight back tears to no avail.
Life is truly unfair! The NFL Hall of Fame should be ashamed for not putting Sterling Sharpe in the HOF! He was an absolute beast on the football field!🏈 I see his NFL career in the same way that I see Terrell Davis and Gayle Sayers. Short careers with high impact! No doubt his trajectory was a HOF one. As a Dallas Cowboys fan, if I’m being honest, he was probably better than my man Michael Irvin. I hope SS gets in one day! 🏈👊🏽
Heartbreaking when players retire young.
Al Toon. Guy played through so many concussions. Would be in the HOF if it wasn't for concussions
It'd be more heartbreaking if he continued to play and end up with CTE symptoms leading to dimentia by the age of 50 eventually leading to an early death.
Sandy Koufax had to retire from baseball at age 30.
When I saw Shannon sharpe I knew it would be about sterling sharpe
Lmfao
dang.....you're good
Haaaaa
Good call
@Gang gang Since potty train nah I just clicked on the notification and only saw the title
I remember an interview back then when he said Brett favre threw so hard it would hurt his hands if not for the injury he would have a ring he deserves to be in the hall of Fame period
If you ever watched Sterling two things stand out until Favre came he had scrubs throwing to him, but unlike Jerry Rice he had no supporting cast the man was triple teamed and still matched Jerry Rice every year he was a man amongst boys
Davante adams has it worst most doubled teamed WR in last 2 years
Sterling Sharpe was amazing. My guy for sure deserves to be in the HOF I mean he did all that in just a few seasons.
Watched him play many times when I was a kid. I even had his jersey. This dude was the absolute truth. REALLY good player and person in general.
Sterling Sharpe was top five wide receiver for me all time. I’m talking about Jerry Rice , Tim Brown , Randy Moss , Lynn Swann , Sterling Sharpe. Dude was THAT good. I would take him pick 3 out of those guys. Rice , Moss , Sharpe. He was blocking at wide out back when wide outs wasn’t expected to block. Thank you Sterling for the great memories!
I was 6 and watching this game live. I was just starting to understand football. This was the first concussion I saw in my young life and I remember asking my father if he was dead. Sterling, you got me into football and you are in my Hall of Fame💚💛
How sterling is not in HOF It should be a crime.. dude was clutch as it gets
Only because his time was so short. He should be there for sure…because of him, and a few others, I came to love the game of football…as a Jamaican!
Doesn’t have the stats
@@paleo704 he would have the stats if he didn't get the neck injury... Over 8k yards 65 TDs and almost six hundred receptions. Btw he is in packers and college Hof.. so yea I think he should of gotta in... He change the TE position..
@@paleo704 Doesn’t have the stats? I tend to disagree. This was before offenses were tossing it all over the yard, my opinion is he isn’t in HOF cause lack of hardware.
@@hnic3718 He played wideout.
He was phenomenal ... so sad his career was cut short.
As a member of the Gamecock nation, I remember watching Sterling play in the Cockpit back in the 80's. Even then you could tell he should have a great pro career. When Favre arrived at Green Bay we all thought, "now they can kick *ss. One day Sterling will be Super Bowl MVP". Alas, that didn't happen, but Sterling still deserves to be in the NFL Hall of Fame on the strength of his stats. One of only 7 winners of the Triple Crown and the first player to have back-to-back 100+ receiving seasons, among other superlatives.
Class act on and off the field. One of THE best receivers I got to see as a football fan. Absolute beast in the game. Breaks my heart to not see him in the HOF.
Sterling Sharpe was the reason I got into football. I was 7 when he retired and I cried. Didn’t understand why he wasn’t playing anymore.
I was 13 at the time, I had my Favre jersey and my Sharpe jersey.. when he did get hurt and then played the following week, ofc I thought he was fine and I couldn't understand why he wasn't playing in the playoffs. I cried so much when my dad explained it all to me.
Sharpe was a great player who was injured after having a short dominating career, there are more deserving players but he really was one of the best receivers ever.
Is a hall of famer...regardless of the naysayers. An absolute beast on the field.
I lived in Milwaukee doing them days I seen him play.He was a wide receiver and a running back in one, pure speed and quickness and strength He was great.
back in the days when the Packers played a few in Milwaukee.
This is a good description of him. I can accept the argument that Rice is the best ever, but in my mind if I’m picking one of them to put on my team, I’m taking Sharpe. He was the total package, whereas I think of Rice as just a finesse player. You could out-physical Rice, not Sharpe. Speed, agility, strength, grit, route running, hands, IQ, Sterling had it all and was the only thing going on some very bad teams. I’m glad I got to see him play, and I believe if he wasn’t on a small market team that wasn’t very good, he would have been a first ballot hall of famer. It really bothers me when I see the hurt inside of him whenever this is addressed. It’s as if his career never happened, after he gave all he had to the sport and to his team.
As a Bears fan, this man was a walking nightmare. Uncoverable, strong, fast, agile, great hands, leaping ability.
My dad nicknamed a member of the Bears secondary Lemuel Stinson "Burnt toast" in recognition of how often he got torched by Sterling.
A true HOFer if I ever saw one.
06:20 "Sterling Sharpe would never catch a single pass from Brett Favre or play a single down of NFL football ever again."
07:19 "In the final game... he returned to catch 9 passes for 132 yards and 3 touchdowns."
Which is it? Both can't be true statements. You need to pay closer attention to what you are saying!
Chilllllllllll
All that content and that is what your focused on
Picky, Picky, Picky. Why not just enjoy the video. I suppose that you never made a mistake in your life.
@@telephonetlm Unlike you, I want to be told the truth. If you are stating facts, than double check them before they are published. And yes, I make mistakes often, and I appreciate them being pointed out to me so that I won't make that mistake again.

@@whitebeardInn - Yes, and you sound like a person who is so full of himself that he fails to realize that nobody appreciates his nitpicking. You don't mind though. You just revel in being a buzz kill that everyone just cringes when you come around.
I didn't really get into football till I was about 12 which would have been Sterling's rookie season. I grew up in Indiana and we got a decent amount of Packer games on local channels at the time. He just blew me away. Despite the fact I was already a Buc's fan (just the team I glommed onto), Sterling was definitely one of my favorite players of the day and still is.
Sterling Sharpe was one of my favorite receivers of the 80’s and 90’s, even though he played for the Packers and I’m a Bears fan. He deserves to be in the HOF.
If he wasn't injured, He and Jerry Rice would be the undisputed WR GOATs
That’s what Deion said
Rice sterling then everyone else
I always said Sterling Sharpe and bo Jackson minus injuries would be talked about GOATS by now
As Stone Cold Steve Austin would say, “oh hell yeah”!
Yep! Sterling also lacked the luxury of Joe Montana and Steve Young throwing him the ball the majority of his career.
@@DSPHistoricalSociety right if not injured maybe 6 more years with favre
Keep doing these doc homie
saw a lot of sterling sharpe being a bears and bucs fan, i was in awe of his abilities, i would have said he was the best in the league, and that includes jerry rice. i'll never forget a 4 week stretch in 1993 for the tampa bay buccaneers.
game 6 against the packers - sterling sharpe 10 receptions, 147 yards, 4 touchdowns.
game 7 against the falcons - andre risen 11 receptions, 147 yards, 2 touchdowns.
game 8 against the lions - barry sanders 29 carries, 187 yards.
game 9 against the 49ers - jerry rice 8 receptions, 172 yards, 4 touchdowns.
Growing up a Packer fan near Green Bay, Sterling was the man. An exciting, amazing talent.
Robert Brooks was better. His career ended short too
I once asked Sterling during a summer camp practice: “Do you think there is enough room on the Packers’ roster for two Sharpes?” He laughed and said yes!!
I remember sitting in the end zone seats at the Silverdome. He caught a TD pass in front of us. Dropped the football and ran back to the bench. No showboating or celebrating.
Amazing commentary...thank you for putting this out.
This man needs to do a Bo Jackson video like this
He didnt have anywhere near the NFL career of Sterling Sharpe. I get the similarities but just wanted to clarify that. Check their numbers.
@@FalconsSB190 Bo's numbers were even less because he always missed September playing baseball.
Thanks man for all the updates and epic bangers you make
What a pair of pheonominal brothers. These are two wonderful gentlemen,
Statistically, Sterling Sharpe would've been on par with Jerry Rice had he not been injured.
Easy- with a bunch of scrub QBs throwing to him for a large part of his career
@@fml5910 Moss isn't really that overrated. He's top 3 all time in yards, and made highlight reels regularly. Dude was legit.
He reminds me of Jacobi Meyers.
@@fml5910 fair enough. He torched my Lion's for years. I should hate him, but dude was a freak athlete, and hard not to be in aww of a lot of the time.
@@notimetowaste1254 had Jakobi been putting up insane number out the gates, I can see glimpses of similarities.
"Sub-par quarterback named Don Mad-cow-ski" lol. Magic actually was the first to bring GBP some hope after years of wandering the wasteland of cellar dwellers. Not a HOF qb but better than "sub-par" IMO.
Yup The Magic Man...UWV!
He was such a beast and I completely forgotten about this
Of course Sterling Sharpe should be in the Hall of Fame. Take his stats for the seven years that he played and compare them to the best seven years of any WR who ever played the game. There are a lot of WR's in the Hall of Fame who aren't qualified to shine Sterling's shoes. He was an absolute beast and was the very best in any stat, tangible or intangible, that anyone could come up with. If he hadn't gotten injured and ended up playing for twelve to fifteen seasons in the NFL, Jerry Rice would officially be the second best WR that ever played the game and Sterling would reign supreme.
Thats just crazy talk. Rice is the greatest period and its not close.
@@somepeoplecanthandlethetruth - Well, I suppose we could debate this for decades and would never come up with total agreement. All I can say is that Rice had a lot more years, not to mention a supremely gifted quarterback throwing to him throughout most of his career. Don't get me wrong, Farve was a great quarterback too, but he doesn't begin to compare to Montana. If you look at Rice Sharpe's stats, Sharpe was bigger, stronger, and faster than Jerry Rice but, one way or the other, both of them were huge talents and it's pretty much a subjective call as to which of the two was the better player.
@@telephonetlm I'm a huge Jerry Rice fan and no one will ever better his career. But at their peak, little to choose between them. Sterling was that good
Im a lifelong Chicago Bears fan so I know alot about Sterling Sharpe. He had the size and strength of a tight end, but had the speed and shiftyness of a wide reciever. I remember a game when Mark Carrier a pro bowl safety for the Bears tried to tackle Sharpe 1on1 It didnt go well for Carrier he was knocked out of the game.
Love it man it sucks when this happened
Please do Lorenzo Neal. He is one of my favorite players of all time and those that knew him knew he was not underrated. I think he contributed to Ladainian Tomlinson 's amazing career
Mine too! When he was with the Titans! How they let him go is beyond me!
Shannon's speech tho. Dude really loves his big bro. Respecc on his name for sure
My favorite player when I when I was a kid. He was just good. No other way to point out him. All around awesome.
As someone who watched him when I was very young and a 49ers fan. When I saw Sterling play. You knew where he was at cause he was making play after play. The talent difference between and him and the 2nd best receiver on those teams was so big. Shit before his injury. Only Jerry Rice was a better WR than him in that era.
Sterling was awesome! Long overdue!
As for recommendations:
1. Jim Jeffcoat
2. Randall Cunningham
He needs to be in the Hall that's for sure! He's a legend and I feel that someone else can wait! I love the Sharpe Brothers and I'm a chiefs fan! They both are monsters
I’m a Bears fan, and I give noting but props to Sterling. Good job on this piece. He was such a good receiver. Very underrated.
I’m early asf damn. But Sterling deserves to be in the NFL Hall of Fame
He is in the hall
@@Kshep09 no he’s not. Shannon is sterling isn’t
@@Kshep09 I think he is in the college hall of fame, but he is not in the NFL's. It might take him a while to get in the NFL since his career was short and he also did not make it to the Super Bowl.
@@drahtid1 He might already be beyond his window to get in traditionally, but he could still be inducted by the Seniors Committee just like fellow WR Drew Pearson was this year.
@@pewpew9193 that’s what I was thinking
He would have been one of the greatest to ever do it if not for those injuries I think. He was on a level that only Rice was in at the time
Edit: Grammar
Deion said rice sterling then everyone else
He still says it
He’s my all time favorite player! My Sterling Sharpe autographed picture is my most prized possession. I absolutely think he deserves to be in the HOF. Even though his career was cut short. He was amazing and did it mostly without a great qb.
I remember watching Sterling Sharpe play when I was in junior high school. His injury when I saw it hurt me to the core as a 12 year old and felt so bad for him. He without a doubt should be in the pro football Hall of Fame
It would be amazing if you could do a story on Vance Johnson
As great as Sterling was I never knew his greatness until he was gone. I watched him every game and he did what he did so naturally that his greatness was just expected. He most definitely should be in Canton.
I'm just glad I got a chance to actually meet and see him personally on Packers fans day back in 92 in Lambeau along with Tony Bennett, Vince Workman, Darrell Thompson, Vinnie Clark, and a few others...
One of my favorite players growing up. Thanks for sharing.
I didn't know he got drafted in 1998 😂😂😂 @2:50

@@jordandimmick6726 *you’re. At least I’m not illiterate
Lame as hell bro.
Also Antonio Brown
He was close to being the only WR to ever win MVP in 2017
Then things went down for him
If jerry rice didn’t win mvp, there is no way Antonio brown would even have a shot at it, with of without injurys
@@julianwinter668 go back and watch Steelers vs ravens they talk about it
It doesn’t matter, mvp is a quarterback award, it doesn’t matter that he had an amazing season, He wouldn’t win it, if calvin Johnson, jerry rice, Julio Jones and many more receivers who are exponentially better than brown didn’t win it what makes you think brown even stood a chance.
Brown is still going to Canton. Not in his first year of eligibility of course. But he'll get in. Based on his stats, he's already pretty much a lock, despite his (significant) off field issues.
Sterling Sharpe was sick! Was one of my favorite receivers as a teenager. Not a big fan of his brother Shannon, but I don't deny he was super talented as well
Thank you for a insightful look at the career of Sterling Sharpe. Great Job!.. Respectfully
Don Majkowski was not subpar. He was a pro bowler my guy 😅
So was mitch Trubisky.... So point still stands
@@manligi9701 Back when Majkowski played guys actually played in the Pro Bowl when they were selected. Now it just goes to who will show up. My point still stands, Majkowski was actually a decent QB before he got hurt. He was certainly not "subpar."
@@why-even-try-brotendo Maj was and is definitely subpar, but I think it got blown out of proportion especially since the preceding 2 QBs are HOFers
@@manligi9701 We didn't call him Magic for nothing. He brought the Packers back in a lot of games. They were pretty bad in the 70's and 80's so we weren't expecting him to light the world on fire. I agree he looks worse because Favre was so great after him.
I have him ranked #2 in my top10 of Receivers. I have Sterling over Moss, Calvin Johnson and Terrell Owens. Best way to describe Sterling Sharpe... he was Marvin Harrison andTerrell Owens mixed together.
Yeah you going too far now😂
I didn't know he wasn't already in the HOF. That sucks.. He was definitely right behind Jerry Rice. When I was a kid, he was one of my favorites. This really ways heavy on my heart. He deserves it so much.
As someone who watched Sterling every game of his pro career, I can say that it would be hard for me to pick Davante Adams as the greatest Packers receiver of my lifetime. It would be close, but the way Sterling broke tackles was a work of art.
As a packers fan I teared up a little
Sounds like a typical packers fan. Lol it's all good man
As a Cowboys fan , I cried.
@@juniorboyd6974 I would too, haven’t been “America’s team” since 1996
It’s kinda like a Aaron Rodgers and Davante Adams duo
Thank you for the education really interesting story remember him as a player very well
Kenny Burroughs 00 introduced me to Sterling while Kenny was a resident at Parklane condos in Houston.
Nice, fun guy.
Also RIP 00
I still think Sterling is an all-time great. All time starting WR for the Packers
What about Don Hudson?
Man, Jerry Rice had more years in his first seven years. Crazy
I heard that too. That’s a crazy ass feat!
What u mean ?
I watched this video knowing damn well I was going to cry.
And I did. R.I.P, king.
As a long time Packer fan I got to watch Sterling dominate the competition.
As many fans, watching Sterling drop to a "stinger" and thereby ending his incredible career was heartbreaking!
He deserves HOF induction.
It's a sad story and yes, he belongs in the HOF in my eyes!
