Even Troy wasn't the biggest hitter. Impeccable timing and crazy awareness with very solid tackling. But wouldn't consider him hard hitting. I agree with Lott over Reed I'll add Atwater over Troy. Steve Atwater was known for his hard hits. Troy and Ed are better all around than Atwater and very close to Lott, maybe better, debatable. As a Niner fan Lott is my #1 with a controversial #2 with Sean Taylor
Agree would also add Lott. Once saw him stonewall Christian Okoye on a run up the middle at the line of scrimmage for no gain. Epic hit. They showed the hit in slow motion and I swear every muscle in Lott’s body moved up and down.
Great list. For me I'd say Dawkins, Polumalu, Reed, Atwater and Lott are the top 5 hardest hitting safties I've been blessed to have seen play in my lifetime.
Bob sanders tossed around TE’s… 5’’7 235 lbs took on FB 6’1 260 one of the biggest bruisers in NFL, Greg Jones, as jones is untouched hitting the second level and 2 yds out of end zone. On about any other day his momentum, size, and force upon contact keeps him traveling into the end zone for a TD, but not this day. Waiting in his running lane was a lowered Sanders, that launched his shoulders into Jones chest squarely and Jones gets stood straight up and driven backwards… There’s a replay from a hit on forte, where the concussion for impact can be observed in slo mo.
You must be very young to not have Ronnie Lott or Steve Atwater on this list. Lott is a legend and Atwater Knocked 3 dudes out with one hit, including himself.
I think Marvin Harrison laying him out in playoffs on a block automatically takes him off the list…Just saying… That was during a first round massacre where all week John Lynch was calling the Colts soft. Also, remember quite a few commercials for bronco players and not many of any for Colts.
5 of the best I’ve seen 1. Lott 2. lynch 3. Dawkins 4. Atwater 5. Taylor The other guys you mentioned were great Safeties but more baller safeties like rod Woodson than max hitting like the guys I mentioned. To leave Lott out shows you didn’t your generation or age. All good tho enjoyed the video
Ed wasn't a hitter. He had one blind side block and that's it. Troy was a good tackler but wasn't a bruiser. Lynch, Lott, Harrison are missing for no reason.
I don't really consider Reed and Polu hard hitting in comparison but i can't really think of any relative to your timeline that are considered extremely good to great safeties. Some that i could list are not that good and were considered dirty, cheap shot artists.
Not sure on your viewership, but guys like Lott and Atwater top this list of safeties. John Lynch and Rodney Harrison with honorable mentions. Troy wasn't even the hardest hitting safety on his team. Reed was a hawk, not a hitter. Dawkins and Taylor and Chancellor or fair, but add in Sanders or Sharper.
Ok i am Raven Fan. But the Topic is hitting right. Ronnie Lott, Lunch ummm . Troy was not a bigger hitter, but a great tackler even a little bit better than Ed in my opinion
@@whodat8364 they seem good but you have to realize that, that was in the 60s bro 😭😭😭 people who played in the league in the 60s weren’t 5 star recruits nd stuff, they were probably just normal people playing football
No John Lynch? I seen a game where Jerome Bettis did a base ball slide 💯 instead of meeting up with Lynch no cap 🧢….. No Ryan Clark? This dude didn’t care about living 💯… you missed those guys …. Reed ain’t a banger, he’s the best ball hawking safety the game ever seen 💯💯💯
@@dylan-nu9kv kam isn’t even in the convo youngster. Go watch film back in the day. You got Ronnie Lott, LA raiders Jack Tatum, and even that guy from the Denver Broncos Steve Atwater
DARREN SHARPER, ONE OF THE MOST HARDEST HITTING SAFETIES IN THE LEAGUE
I was looking for this😭😭😭
@@LattiDaddyw pfp and name ⚜️
Bob Sanders
Dawwan Shawrpuh, one of the most hardest Hutton’ safety’s in duh LEAGUE
As a ravens fan Ed reed was not a big hitter consistently he shouldn’t be too 5 for hardest hitting Ronnie Lott should be here
Even Troy wasn't the biggest hitter. Impeccable timing and crazy awareness with very solid tackling. But wouldn't consider him hard hitting. I agree with Lott over Reed I'll add Atwater over Troy.

As a Niner fan Lott is my #1 with a controversial #2 with Sean Taylor
In my mind i was like Ed Reed isn't a big hitter but i knew he was gonna put him up there because he's "Ed Reed"
Troy and reed can be switched with John lynch and bob sanders when it comes to hard hits
I agree he wasn’t the hardest hitter or the fastest he was smart
@@riquelthomas1246 he up there on speed check them return tds
Steve Atwater and Ronnie Lott... Missing
In his life
Steve Atwater knocked out three players on one hit in the Super Bowl. Legendary.
Was that against the packers?
yes
Agree would also add Lott. Once saw him stonewall Christian Okoye on a run up the middle at the line of scrimmage for no gain. Epic hit. They showed the hit in slow motion and I swear every muscle in Lott’s body moved up and down.
The third player was himself 😂.
DARREN SHARPER
THE HARDEST HITTING SAFTEY IN THE LEAGUE!!!
Bob sanders top 5
They have no fucking clue bob sanders had a dpoy super bowl winning season in 2007
@@Nole4life1999and he was only 5'8 .. 200 pound recking ball!! Hit so hard he ended his own career
@JizoMan facts ill take him over any safety for 1 yr. Really special player
Patrick Peterson and Rodney Harrison have left the chat
He said safetys
Bam bam is the best hitter there is
I'm telling you, those who play this position have a sixth sense.
Where is Ryan Clark in this list
Bob Sanders hit hard. Top 5 hard.
Bob sanders and ronnie lott are glaring omissions
Steve Atwater, John Lynch, Ryan Clark
gregg jennings putting the team on his back and keeping one man off this list
Great list.
In my opinion, Derwin James is top 10
Did anyone else notice nimbe 94 just pouncing at Shawn in that clip of him
Great list. For me I'd say Dawkins, Polumalu, Reed, Atwater and Lott are the top 5 hardest hitting safties I've been blessed to have seen play in my lifetime.
Yessir troy
I feel like Derwin should be honorable mention
thanx 4 the great content and fantasy advice i sumhow got maholmes n kelce this year

Idk but Roy Williams was knocking dudes too
Ed Reed was a ballhawk than a big hitter, but he wasn’t afraid to hit though. I’ll switch Ed out for Bob Sanders.
Ronnie Lott, John Lynch
Where RC at bro😢😢😢
right rc is the hardest hitting safety i've ever seen
One of the most terrifying safety in history
Ryan Clark
The 5th one looked like he hit the hardest
Brian Urlacher was a Saftey in college
Chuck Cecil...Bob Sanders...
no ronnie lott is crazyyyy
Any list of this kind without Atwater and Lott isn’t a real list.
You must be young 😅
Bernard Pollard
Underrated as a hitter. The pads sounded different when he lined someone up. Also, Brady’s only season on the injured list was from Pollard.
completely whiffed on John Lynch and Steve atwater
There's other great hitting safeties, that could all be on this list, assuming your a little older than the OP. Still a good list.
BOB SAUNDERS, 2007 DPOY
Ronnie Lott and Jack Tatum are the hardest hitting safeties of all time
All those guys hit harder than ed reed Rodney Harrison should’ve been in there too
Unfortunately all of these would be flags now
Bro Ronnie lott☝🏽
You are forgetting Derwin James. Absolute menace
Fr
I'd add John Lynch over Reed for hard hits. Dawkins was a beast.
Bob sanders laid the hammer to
Where is Darren Sharper
You're forgetting John Lynch my boy
I think Marvin Harrison laying him out in playoffs on a block automatically takes him off the list…Just saying… That was during a first round massacre where all week John Lynch was calling the Colts soft. Also, remember quite a few commercials for bronco players and not many of any for Colts.
5 of the best I’ve seen
1. Lott
2. lynch
3. Dawkins
4. Atwater
5. Taylor
The other guys you mentioned were great Safeties but more baller safeties like rod Woodson than max hitting like the guys I mentioned. To leave Lott out shows you didn’t your generation or age. All good tho enjoyed the video
Honerable metion, Jeff health boi almost killed a man.
How can we forget about Darren sharper, one of the most hardest hitting safeties in da league??
Steve atwater and Jack tatum
Ed Reed wasn’t a hard hitter, he just took great angles but he wasn’t a bona fide bone crasher. And I’m a Ravens fan who seen every Ed Reed snap.
Ed wasn't a hitter. He had one blind side block and that's it. Troy was a good tackler but wasn't a bruiser. Lynch, Lott, Harrison are missing for no reason.
Laron Landry could lay some wood as
well.
Give me Eric Reid and Taylor mays
I guess the video is based on those he has seen. Ronnie Lott was before his time
What about John Lynch!?!? 🤔
I don't really consider Reed and Polu hard hitting in comparison but i can't really think of any relative to your timeline that are considered extremely good to great safeties. Some that i could list are not that good and were considered dirty, cheap shot artists.
Where's Kareem Jackson lol
Ed Reed maybe 5th but no not 1
Wasn’t ordered jus his top 5
last 2 should be SS Roy WIlliams SS Jamal Adams
Steve Atwater
How is Roy Williams not on the list
Wouldn’t put Ed in this category…He’s def bring the pain but he never really HAD to.
What about Robin lot what about Ronnie Lott
Ronnie Lott come on
Lessssss gooooo trooooooooy
Roy Williams?
Bob sanders , John lynch , Ronnie lot , Atwater
If u don’t have Sean T in top five hardest hitting safety’s u tripping they made new rules because of him lol
John Lynch?
Troy wasn't even the hardest hitting safety on his own roster. That's Ryan Clark. None of these guys have the smack that Lott or Atwater did.
Ronnie Lott
Ronnie Lott just left the chat.
He said in his lifetime. Lott was before "his lifetime"
Jack tatum?
Not sure on your viewership, but guys like Lott and Atwater top this list of safeties. John Lynch and Rodney Harrison with honorable mentions.
Troy wasn't even the hardest hitting safety on his team. Reed was a hawk, not a hitter.
Dawkins and Taylor and Chancellor or fair, but add in Sanders or Sharper.
John lynch?????
Brian Dawkins Sean Taylor And Kam are valid but Troy and Ed not i would put like Ryan Clark and Lott or Atwater
Ok i am Raven Fan. But the Topic is hitting right. Ronnie Lott, Lunch ummm . Troy was not a bigger hitter, but a great tackler even a little bit better than Ed in my opinion
Bam bam kam is the hardest hitter
Yeah ed

John Lynch over ed reed

No ed reed
U left a bunch out

Yeah this is a shit list.
You shoudve labeled this video the best safeties because a lot of these guys weren’t bangers Ed was a genius not a banger at all
Ed reed is not the hardest hitter on this list lol and Troy damn sure isn’t the 2nd 🤣🤣
Brian Dawkins has the most forced fumbles out of all of these guys for a reason and you put him at 5 you don’t know ball kidn
He said that they weren't in any specific order
Listening is key
Clearly you need to watch safety’s before your life time like Ronnie Lot, he hit harder than all of them combined
He literally just said those are the ones he’s seen in his lifetime not of all time you dumbass
honestly prob kam chancellor watch his highlights
Ok just a lil overboard
