Just given how rules have changed, we won't see a defense like that 2011 one again.
Whitner literally concussed Pierre Thomas into a fumble in that epic Saints playoff game.
Those kinda hits were routine for SF back then and they'd be flagged up and down the field now.
I kinda look at those seasons (2011-2013) as the last frontier for a truly violent defense.
True, don't know if there will ever be another Willis laying the lumber like that again in today's age or if LB's will even be allowed to make those same hits ever again.
Or that Dashon Goldson hit against Arizona. That defense was absolutely ferocious.
do you really think the whittner hit would be flagged today? i have to relook. but i am not sure maybe crazy dmax who has found out how to post video can post that clip and we can see
Happy birthday to Donte Whitner 💪🏼 pic.twitter.com/8pHIo3kv6p

Definition of helmet to helmet contact lol. Thomas looked like a UFC fighter getting knocked the f out how he went limp there after contact
