How Good Was Lawrence Taylor Actually?

How Good Was LT Actually?
With a TORN shoulder and DETACHED pectoral muscle, a man once beat up the 9-3 New Orleans Saints with 3 sacks and 2 forced fumbles. He limped his New York Giants to victory. But in his mind, he was not in any pain at all. He wasn’t hurt. His only truth was to annihilate his opponent by any means necessary. And he did. For 13 years in the NFL. It wasn't just about the stats, about the power matched with speed and skill, not even about his sheer dominance. Lawrence Taylor had that dawg in him his whole life, for better… and for worse.
In today's video, we look at How Good Was Lawrence Taylor Actually?

    As a Tar-Heels fan he's the greatest LB in NFL's History Lawrence Taylor was relentless a unstoppable force the 1st Round 2nd overall pick out of University of North Carolina by the New York Giants a 3X NFL's Defensive player of the year 2X Super Bowl Champion and 1986 NFL's MVP no debate but in college he wear #98 in the pros #56 with the Giants

    Had two of the greatest games I’ve ever saw a defensive player have. Never seen anyone with the aggression he had .

    @jbx.7995

    I'm a Giants fan, Taylor at one × was good, gave everything on the field, Carl Banks made him who he was, Banks was all in. A 1st class act, Taylor, we all know the garbage he likes

    the greatest defensive player of my time...and I live in Philly and watched Reggie, who was pretty dam good, but second place to Lawrence Taylor

  • @eddisonfoncette9103
    @eddisonfoncette9103

    "Sir" Lawrence Taylor, the undisputed GOAT @ LB. LT could line up anywhere and didn't need anyone to occupy blockers he would run past or over who was in front of him to get to the QB. If it was a run he could go sideline to sideline to get the runner, even in the midst of his off field issues he dominated there was no escaping him. Go Hawks

    @richardyoung871

    In this video I liked watching LT play because he could dominate the line as a linebacker but the Grant are rebuilding like many NFL TEAMS are doing. From coach down and I watch the NFL draft.a lot of QBS have come out.and to see from what college they played for
