Been Cowboys fan for 40 years and LT is the best NFL player I've ever seen. Changed offensive and defensive football. Couldn't be run at. Couldn't be blocked 1 on 1. Invented strip sack. Running down the line to catch RBs. All go no show. Feared by every opponent. Made Gibbs and Walsh change to 2 TE and 3 TE sets. Underrated pass defender.

LT is worth all the hype and more. His stats and accomplishments speak volumes. B.T.W. Bruce Smith had over 200 sacks vs. Reggie White's 198 sacks. They're not even close in dominance.

Bill Belichick is lucky to have coached Lawrence Taylor and Tom Brady

I was 12 when the Bears won in '85, 13 when the Giants won in '86, and just starting college when the Ravens won in 2000. When asked which was the best defense, I just say all three! My first Superbowl that I can remember was in 1979, and my father pointed at the Steelers and told me: "Defense wins championships." I really miss great defense as it's so much more impressive than great offense, and now that I know how much more effort that it takes in the NFL, I just admire it even more.

Go Big Blue sorry but no he is not. U were limited with what you could do with LT. They guy is a lot like randy moss lots of talent but he did not care enough about perfecting the little nuances that would have made him a stud in any scheme. Watch his highlights very few times do u see him make a play in pass coverage where the ball is not thrown directly at him.

LT was a complete football player... No weaknesses. He could rush the quarterback... Drop back and defend the pass... Couldn't run at him... Couldn't run away from him... Hit like a beast... Huge heart and intimidation second to none... He injected his dynamic prowess in every aspect of the game... When he was on his game, he controlled the game, from top to bottom... An absolute nightmare for the opposition.

The reason the Hogs O line became so good was they had a full quarter of their season up against LT and Reggie White. Fight or die.

Literally because of the way the game is structured today you will NEVER see another player like this in a lifetime

I'm not even a Giants fan I would definitely consider LT in the top 3 for greatest players of all time.

This is the reason why I became a giants fan

The most exciting defensive player I had the privilege too watch play every Sunday on my team the NYG’s.

There is one reason that Alan Page's 1971 MVP season is not so touted. He Dominated as much as LT, but films of his games are hard to find, and not commonly held, so he gets forgotten while LT gets all the glory. Don't forget that LT wasn't the first defensive MVP on the league. But in life , there is no doubt Alan Page>>LT as a person. He made the Minnesota Supreme Court and was Chief Justice. What has LT done after football???? Exactly -- nothing.

That was the year that became aware of American football. A rich friend who was a fan asked me who I liked in the super bowl, and I had no idea what he was talking about. He asked me again "Broncos or Giants?", to which I asked him who he liked. He mentioned that he liked the Broncos, to which I laughed, so to seem that I knew what henwas talking about, and told him the Giants would win easily. So that is how the Giants became my team, amd L.T. my favourite player, but after thensame friend showing me a sports magazine where it had a Giants player eating apples. 😅 My friend mentioned that that was the best player, so I ran with it ever since. A couple of years later I moved to north America and was able to watch my favourite team and player on TV, along with play the game and become a starting LB who wore 56. Fun times.

My favorite defensive player of all tyme'/!!!

You missed the most impressive achievement: they negative yarded the Broncos in the 3rd quarter of the Super Bowl. Pretty sure no one else has ever done that in any quarter of any other Superbowl.

LT was unstoppable in TECMO BOWL!!!

Nobody talks about the Big Blue Wrecking Crew as one of the top defences in history and that's a crying shame because they were BETTER than the '85 Bears. Hear me out here, because the Bears were good for ONE SEASON while the Crew won TWO Super Bowls over five years, the second against a team they had no business being on the field with, let alone defeating... the 1990-91 Buffalo Bills, one of the greatest football teams to ever walk onto a field. The Giants beat them with backup Jeff Hostetler as QB because Phil Simms had a broken leg. Super Bown XXV was won by the Big Blue Wrecking Crew (with help from MVP RB Ottis "OJ" Anderson).

Would love to see a "Great performances of the 21st century". Kwon Alexander's game after his brothers' passing would definitely be in there.

Taylor, Carson and Banks!

Undisputed legend

The 1986 Giants were ridiculously loaded and played at full tilt the whole season. Taylor is why I like Khalil Mack and the Bears this year (now 25-1).
