From run Defense with tackles for loss, pass coverage with pass break ups, and of course Sacks. The guy when healthy is doing stuff no other defensive player has ever done in the history of the game.
Barry Sanders greatest running back ever. But Im pretty sure Erick Dickerson has some of the best single season stats and probably really close to career stats as Sanders.
I say Lawrence Taylor is the greatest defender because of his impact on the game of football.
PS: Another good example would be Tom Brady and Drew Brees.
Also a better comparison would be Manning vs Brady; which Manning is better but since Brady teams won more Superbowls he gets the nod as the goat because his teams won more Superbowls than Manning.
Also what about Emmit Smith vs Barry Sanders? Emmit had more titles than Barry but does that make him better? I would doubt anyone would make that argument.
