One of the hardest things I remember hearing was there was a year the bears only won 1 game and Butkus won defensive player of the year through a bad knee
. He had every reason to take the year off and recover or even take it easy but he didn't.

Stats for a QB from the 70s lol. You realize there was no penalty for defensive holding til the end of his career right? You could mug receivers up and down the field no foul. Imagine Mahomes stats with that.

Overrated means that person was great, which doesn't apply to him. Not the greatest, but definitely one of the all time great DL.
Imo, Bill Romanowsky is that guy. Just a dirty player that was slow.

The guy has seven straight 1st team All Pro selections, which is an amazing achievement. It's hard to really compare eras, but I definitely think he's the best defender today. Donald isn't a great run stuffer, but in today's game, that's almost an afterthought. I've seen a lot of guys in their prime - Mean Joe Greene, Randy White, Lawrence Taylor, Ronnie Lott, Reggie White, Bruce Smith, Deion Sanders, Ed Reed.....I still say LT was the best defensive player I've ever seen. His impact was ridiculous - league altering type of impact.
Anything Ricky Roma says, I trust.
He bought me a pack of gum and showed me how to chew it!

He's not proven to be on roids but I suspect based on his head size and based on his anger that he's on roids. Remember when he got ejected vs us and we made him throw his helmet in anger. Roid rage.

He's definitely an all time great defensive player, but I'm not sure why there some in media says ever. Prisoner of the moment type thing I suppose...
