Underrated does not even capture this man's place in NFL history. clearly one of the best players and in my estimation the best middle linebacker bar none.

My favorite Chicago Bear. He was so dominant on the field and played with such intensity. Great memories watching him playing, especially when they won the Super bowl.

I’m a packer fan but this dude had a motor my father was a bears fan and I can still remember sitting in front of the tv and watching mike play

Samurai Mike! One of the surest tacklers I’ve seen in my life. It’s pretty nuts to think he made 1st or 2nd team All Pro every year of his career save for one. That is just wild.

Excellent video! I've been looking for Singletary highlights forever and this is the first time I've actually found one. All of the other "highlight" video's just show him talking. This gives me a much better picture of how he played the game. Thank you!

You've been looking forever for singletary highlightes because in reality , Mike was not very good , he was small , slow ,and nobody feared his mediocre hits . This vid was his career best . Mike succeeded only due to the mega superstars surrounding him , most of the time , when backs did get loose , they would run over Mike and around him with a simple one cut move , the majority bof his career , he was second or third cleanup tackle . Singletary thrived because of all the talent around him . Put Mike on any other team , you never would have heard his name . Singletary = overated

Jim Johnson hey man, real talk. They good at producing great RB’s as well. Put I hate that Urlacher over shadowed Briggs like he did, because Lance was a straight up Dog man, that deserves way more recognition. But that’s how great Brian was, and I respect that. I’m willing to bet money tho, that if Briggs & Tillman was on another team, and did what they did, no doubt they’ll be first ballots too. Man, Tillman wasn’t a great cover man, but the dude was a turnover machine, that made big play after big plays. But then again, he cover megaton and moss pretty good tho. That defense should be rate up there with the 85 Bears, 78 Steelers, & 01 Ravens, because they almost won with Rex Gross at QB

The guy had the FRIDGE along side him. They would just tear right through the offensive line. There wasn’t time to put the women and children to bed before looking for dinner when you played the 85 Bears.

Which could be why he's barely coherent nowadays. 😁

In the stop on Dickerson, all three linebackers were there. Singletary was great, but he also played with great players. Wilson, Marshall, Hampton, Perry, Dent, McMichael, Singletary. Such a dominant front seven. Nobody could move the ball against those 85' bears. Best defense I've ever seen.

Michael Singletary is one of the most underrated superstars in the history of the National Football League 🏈

1:28 is the most savage leap block of all time

i'm going to tell my kids that this is when football players were allowed to tackle

He's the reason i became a bears fan

The classiest

Those eyes before the snap would make a QB and RB 💩 themselves!

all hail BUDDY RYAN! Defensive architect of SB III NY JETS & SB XX CHICAGO BEARS. Ryan ran the defense thru Singletary & pretty much let the other line guys feast.

Me being a former high school football player, I get chills watching his highlights, along with all of the greats at middle linebacker, the rush you get after you make a bone crushing hit is undescribable but the experience of that beautiful violent collision is equivalent to sex, it gives one an unbelievable rush of adrenaline.

THE REAL DEAL.

What a great player

What A Great Player

Singletary was scary good. Quick on his feet and hit you like a Mac truck. You ever watch his eyes right before the snap? He looked almost demented, but the funny part is that off the field he was a minister

Next to Derrick Thomas and the GOAT LT, he's probably the best LB of the late 80s...forgotten among his peers

Beast

My hometown football team was my first favorite football team, but The Chicago Bears were my very first pro favorite team. Started at 84-85 when I was just a little bitty guy. Probably because of the bad ass football team and the Bears Shuffle….lmao

Great video! I watch all of them and enjoy them. If you could do a Hardy Nickerson highlight that would be appreciated.

doing wats right and setting the style samurai mike

The first time I saw him at Baylor I wasn't sure about his size.

Dick Butkus...Mike Singletary...Jack Lambert... Ray Lewis...Ray Nietzsche...Chuck Bednarik

It's those all seeing big eyes of his and to think he looks so civilized when he wears glasses go figure

He was a powerbottom

Mike Singletary bears a strong resemblance to Jordan Peele.

Love this man! Up on the same platform as Butkus, Nitschke, Mike Curtis, Jack Lambert, LT et cetera . Matt Mad Dog 🐕 Sweeney

You can see how all the defensive players not hold back.

The Cowboys didn't draft Mike Singletary (LB) because their computer said he was too small for the position. Also, they passed on Randy Moss (WR) due to his problems in college and didn't think he would fit in with the team they had at the time, so they drafted Greg Ellis (DE). Idiotic for sure, they should have drafted the best on the board at any position no matter what the computer wanted them to do.

He is known for being a great player an taking his pants off to get his team hyped

The man who inspired ray Lewis as a kid

Who you think Coached RAY LEWIS all those years...

Watch it live on the game on KZread loudest hit ever heard

Exceptional nose 👃 for the ball...Mad Dog 🐕

Singletary was good but you have guys like Bill Bergey and Randy Gradishar that were better that aren't even in the HOF.

Horse collar tackles, helmet to helmet contact...Football was better back then. The NFL has neutered professional football.

Good thing they have highlights , these were the only plays he made People forget how often he was the cleanup guy .Second , third to the tackle majority of ankle tackles He was the most over hyped overated player on a team of superstars . He was mediocre . Small , slow , little power ,backs 9 out of 10 times backs would run through and around him he thrived due to the mega players that surrounded him . You could've put anyone in his position with that D line , the best D in history and they would've been an all-star .

Singletary kept his mouth shut and let his play define him, as opposed to the overhyped players of today. During his prime Singletary was a beast!! Singletary's responsibility was covering guard to guard and he did a damn good job!!
