Calvin Johnson: MEGATRON | NFL Legends Highlights 

😂😂😂

But it never failed :)

@@north6star is that y they won a Super Bowl

Even Wentz or Nathan Peterman could complete the pass in triple Coverage bcuz its Megatron in WR

@@YourMom-sr9ub Always gotta be someone who hates jokes.

**cough** basketball

Imagine if LeBron played wide receiver. He would make megatron look small

Facts

I am going to do that right now.

But Lebron got injured once and quit football weak ass

This was said about Randy Moss as well.

Amen 🙏

Calvin Johnson's the player you make in Madden when you wanna shatter records. He shouldn't be physically possible, that size, speed, athleticism it's insane.

wouldnt go that far

Probably second I mean jerry rice was dominant for too long to just put Calvin above him for a 9 year career

Top 3, but I feel you

The lions made the playoffs with him what do u mean?

Cj is what Josh gordon could have been

@@onurbal8829 will become you mean.

Shidd quadrupled coverage no problem I remember him catching the ball on damn near like 5 dbs lol

Calvin Johnson is probably the greatest NFL athlete ever. Look at his NFL Combine measurements. A 12 foot 3 inch standing broad jump?! A 4.35 forty time?! All at a strong 6'5", 235lb frame. This man was a superhuman specimen. He's the Secretariat of football. If Calvin Johnson had played on one of the better Patriot teams, their offense would have been unstoppable.

The man made Reggie Ball, an undersized rollout QB look good at Georgia Tech, even though he was getting double teamed like Larry Fitzgerald used to in his college days.

He was THAT good

Yep

Yep

The most talented football player I have ever seen.

@Carlos Duncan Dude are you dumb he said the most talented player HE has ever seen not you

You're drunk old man.

Ya don't let these randy moss or jerry rice fans let u say otherwise Johnson is the best wr period

@@rellbgm4473 he sounds sober and reasonable to me

@@XRBClanGaming you must be young

@@XRBClanGaming lol tyreek and AB aren't even CLOSE to calvin johnson.

His name was never butterfingers

@@philiphyde9260 Watch his E60 report. He got the nickname in high school because he would drop passes so much.

@@michaelshan22 I was his teammate in highschool. I was the running back on that squad. I know him personally. He never had that name bro.

@@michaelshan22 Sandy Creek highschool tyrone ga. Google it

@@jamesthomas1649i bet you googled that shit though

AestheticsisLife with a 40 inch vertical... unbelievable

long legs my guy. height helps with top speed. weight is what slows you down. look at usian bolt

he was faster than 4.35. He ran that without practicing for the 40 yard...and he BORROWED running shoes from another athlete at the combine. If he trained for the run and brought his own shoes....it is likely he would have ran it much faster, likely in the high 4.2s

@@dr.j5642 that's crazy I never knew that

AestheticsisLife Moss 6’4 3.29 40

Rice, Moss, and Megatron all had very comparable primes. Only difference is that Rice did it for twice as long. I know you never watched Rice play, but don’t pretend Megatron had a better prime. Moss (6 year prime): 1395 yards 12.8 TDs per season Megatron (6 year prime): 1424 yards 10.3 TDs per season Rice (11 year prime): 1404 yards 13.7 TDs per season

Naw better than moss

Facts

mhead1 1 you a great big idiot if u think CJ better than Rice, Lol 😂

RedRider BBGun u sayin rice because he won rings and was on a good team 😂 We talkin bout the player dummy TALENT wise he’s the best to ever play the game almost 7foot hands like glue fast can do it all

9 years is long

@@D0nnyy I am a Cards fan who got to see Fitz throughout my childhood (IMO the best wr all time) and he had a very long career

@@phxmaster9684 9 years in Detroit is like 56 Dog Years

I think it's CTE plus he really did get tired of playing for a shit team. Maybe we'll see him lace up again for a new team since I think the Lions no longer have his contract rights?

He is the greatest receiver I have ever seen

@Mr. Zora Why you gotta be a dick?

Top 5? Dudes the most dominant receiver to ever live, not close.

@@dlamb661 Rice got that longevity tho and Moss was insane as well

1st BALLOT BABY !

D.J. ENCORE ! he is in the same hall of fame class with Peyton Manning I believe, so I’m pretty sure Manning will be first ballot.

D.J. ENCORE ! he is in the same hall of fame class with Peyton Manning I believe, so I’m pretty sure Manning will be first ballot.

@@visible1454 And I believe Charles Woodson is in that class too. Another 1st ballot vote getter.

D.J. ENCORE ! Almost forgot about woodson, but don’t leave out Jared Allen.

Nice one

The fact that his nickname used to be “Butterfingers” in high school because he would drop everything is mind blowing because of the transition he had.

@@liyaniam2280 ikr

Hahaha

Paul Gaither retired

@@lukeschein7029 - Thanks. I hadn't noticed that my clumsy thumbs on my smart phone messed it and "now" up by spelling it "niw." Fixed.

Ga Tech is such a random school but some great athletes went there

I remember watchimg him im high school 😢😢😢

I couldnt really just sit and watch football, but when Peyton Manning and Calvin Johnson stepped on the field it was just something special. Seeing 1 person just being able to dissect and destroy most defenses.

Agreed but without and offensive line, I say him and Stafford did pretty good.

He did lol

@@yojomma685 yeah he did! Why the "lol"?

Craig Paulson I found it funny how you made this comment before it happened and it happened. It wasn’t directed towards you at all

He also retired at 30 in the prime of his career. He had 3 more years of top of the nfl years left in him and at his physical stature that may have been 6+ years of pro bowl seasons. So yeah his numbers are not as gaudy as other receivers, but stack them by yearly averages and you get rice, moss, Harrison, TO, Fitzgerald, and Holt type of numbers.

Exactly what I was going to say. No acting a fool. Just playing the game the right way. Classy guy.

Detroit's front office pretty much discarded both players - both Hall of Famers. Pissed me off, and I'm a Bears fan.

Both had their careers wasted

The retirements were because they both had issues with pain from injuries

If he played for anyone other than the Lions he probably would of been top 2 even if he retired early. He made alot of money for below average QBs

@@gobot581 I wouldn't call matt stafford below average just sayin

@@redwingjv Stafford is below average my guy

@Leo K you get information from analysts 😂😂😂

BummyDAn you don’t 😂😂

Antonio Brown is over-rated

@@rickosler6667 Megatron better than AB but he ain't overrated

Calvin Johnson with a prime big ben, Peyton, or brees would have been absolutely insane.

@@R41D3RNAT10N Mathew Stafford is actually better than Ben

@@bigty390 he is now. But 6 years ago he definetly wasn't. That's why I said prime big ben

Lmfao right smh

Exactly megatron da got double teamed off of the line of scrimmage

right now hes not as good but Dk could become as good.

MegaGay FatBoy no, DK will be his own player he does not have the potential to be megatron, especially with iffy hands. be real

@@isaiahphipps245 Big Facts. Iffy hands and Stiff route running. Nothing like Megatron

Big facts

Light Yagami Dude don't forget about Billy Sims

Don’t forget about Herman Moore

Oh hell ya. I agree. Stafford is the next one in line tbh

As well as Matthew Stafford

I seen that too 🤣😂🤣😂

First two weren’t

Never mind the next 13 are

He left due to mistreatment by the lions

Matt K stfu

Megatron is the only other wr id put in Randy's category. Just my two cents.

If you give Brady Calvin Johnson you would see who was better

@@WotansKarlT.O? Julio Jones? Jerry rice? Hutson? Tedd Gin Jr?

@@Sneakergod23Calvin doesn’t seem like the cheating type he probably wouldn’t play well with Brady because my dad says Brady got suspended a lot for cheating but I only ever watched him play for Tampa. I’ve been watching highlights though

​@romancotton8536 your dad must be confused, Brady got suspended once for 4 games for deflategate, And missed another season due to ACL injury And they changed the rule the following season (the NFL made it illegal for any defender. who was on the ground from lunging at the QB's legs)

No

TEs wish they had that speed and those hands.

@@bengalsbowlbound3137 thats his point

Ryan Brown TEs are heavier and stockier

Not true. If your talking about physically dominant than that mans name is randy moss.

choopiebmw p

And for Barry Sanders

Peanut Tillman from my Bears would always shut megatron DOWN

The saddest part about being a lions fan. We’re not a big market city, so when we get high caliber players like this, we decide to repay them with shit management and teammates. Only thing a lot of that talent says that keeps them around is the fan loyalty and love for the game. Makes me feel like crap knowing this keeps happening to our guys

You ever think maybe he didn't enjoy playing football anymore?

Julio Jones too

Andrew Nguyen lol that game got chip Kelly fire 😅😂

well damn, I don't remember hearing about that lol. jeez. I don't think that is necessarily the case though. You don't fire a coach or cut a player because of one bad game. A bad season, sure. I don't remember the Eagles record from that season, but if it was bad, I could definitely see this game being a huge factor in that. Kelly, like the dumbass he is at times, decided to scheme a rookie DB to go 1 on 1 with Megatron in the endzone that game. Even knowing that Rowe did a great job coverage wise, it still was a shitty and stupid defensive plan at face value. He is also the same coach that could not pull his head out of his ass and get production out of Demarco Murray, only to get schooled on how to use Murray from the Titans.

Andrew Nguyen yea it also helps when the eagles decide not to double cover Calvin Johnson even thought he was going off

Eric Rowe first start too. Play decent too until Calvin Johnson got his first TD , then his second , then his third. The year everybody thought Eagles was a super bowl team but choke😅. They got they super bowl ring 2 years later so it work out for them in the end.

Malcolm Jenkins was doing his best with what the eagle got at corner that year. Believe it or not Eagles had the worst corners in history that year , Malcolm had to carry that defense, had over 100 tackles that year.

With Herman Moore on the otherside.....yeah!!!!

Oof that a domination combination lol

Lions would still find a way to waste that talent.

Billy Sims as the 2nd string RB

Joseph they still wouldn’t make the playoffs

Stafford has always had an incredible arm in terns of both strength and accuracy. A+ arm talent but only B or B+ in awareness and decision making.

Pause

If the lions had a lick of defense during the Johnson-Stafford era, they’d probably have at least a Super Bowl appearance to show for their years together

Well Stafford finally got a ring. Wish Megatron could've got one, he def deserved it

@@asvpchuchu7473 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣I was thinking the same thing!

Very underrated duo.

that duo was EXCITING TO WATCH!

Bullshit

Nah frfr tho Aint even gonna stunt

I mean any pass is a dime when you’re throwing to Megatron. 2 feet high... 2 feet low.. 3 yards left... 3 yards right... triple coverage, you know Megatron is going to come down with the pigskin.

Have you noticed that Megatron always had to catch the pass either too high or too low. Yeah I wouldnt be so quick to give Stafford credit. CJ made that guy.

They say NFL stands for Not For Long

His Career was to short too though he could have went for another 5 years easy but the lions are dumb asses to get rid of him cuz of how much he was asking could u blame the guy he was breaking records like nothing miss him at the lions all ready

Yeah, his and Barry Sanders getting stuck on the shitty Lions...it's sad.

We seem to have a habit of getting generational talent and then doing nothing to build around it.

St.Clair Eric 😂😂😂😂😂

Daniel Barwatt “Even with the greatest RB and WR” yea I love megatron too but no way he’s the greatest receiver of all time

@@dabalo3995 I feel like the giants are going to waste Saquon Barkely tbh

Yet people only give the cowboys a hard time!

meaturama dumb fuck read it again

@@money1308 😂😂😂

Michael Vue now imagine lebron if he went to the nfl

No, Antonio brown is the Lebron of football... Massive ego, but also massive talent... However, he'll go scheming to try getting whatever he wants, regardless of how stupid it looks. Megatron is like the Larry bird of football, but without the massive amount of trash talking

Leonis Krigorian lebron played football I’m sure he knows how to play wr

Rowdy Jr. Cleveland=where dead careers go is more accurate tbh

LegitPwnz it goes both ways

OmegaMan False

Pittsburgh - where talent goes if they wanna lose in the first round

@@notsauer Six Super Bowls. Three appearences in the last 14 years. I guarantee unless your a Patriots fan your team doesn't have that much success lol

Still get flashbacks from that dolphins game in which he torched Grimes

Jp Thabeast 😂Brett grimes is little asl

Lions are losing in almost every highlight. I understand why he retired.

Grew up a cardinals fan, but always thought johnson in his prime was better than fitz and probably best I've ever seen top 3 definitely

song?

True and I'm a Cowboys fan.

🤣🤣🤣

@@kalanievans2341I laughed to when he implied randy moss was on the same level as CJ. First I got to see randy loss play was in middle school against giants when he played for patriots…he had like 2 catches and then retired what a joke

Same here man. I remember growing up with that stafford and megatron duo. Even though we weren’t a winning team was always proud to root for my boys. Even remember writing Calvin Johnson as my idol on a school project. Things are looking up for us now, big things to come for the Lions and I’m excited as ever.

I got moss rice Owens and Fitzgerald before him but he’s top 5

I agree... best wr of all time imo

Matt Pawlowski If it was prime only, I would take Moss. Moss was just so fast and has just as good catching ability.

@@xxlegoteenxx Moss was also a beast, but for me, Megatron could run more/better routes. Moss was mostly about the fly route and using only his speed and ability to high point the ball. Megatron was way stronger.

In 1 game, Moss caught 3 catches for 153 yrds and 3 TDs. He just gets TDs. That is why he holds the rookie record and the single season record for TDs.

@@xxlegoteenxx Moss was certainly a TD machine. There's no taking that away from him. I've never seen a guy time and time again beat out multiple defenders for jump balls the way Megatron did. Especially with the unbalanced offense, knowing the ball was going to him in triple coverage. They're my top 2 and I'm good with either 1 being first.

Randy Moss.

@@AT-qm8gv Watched Moss his whole career and he was unreal. One of the fastest WR ever BUT Calvin had it all. It was truly freaky that triple coverage didn't work. He is in the 99th percent for Jumping Height and Speed lol He is a Madden create a PLAYER

SmithN' Wesson rice?

Three words: Straight cash homie.

@James Vs. Movies thank you Al Davis

You wasted him you didn’t deserved it pathetic organization

@@jimmymallet55 And the Raiders would wasted his career as well. Not our fault your team sucks at drafting. Like the original comment said Thank you for Megatron sincerely from this Lions fan. Hope we draft another once in a generation talent so we can enjoy him for ourselves.

@King Henry You stupid. You act like we're GM's or something. Fuck is we suppose to do when the GMs and owners suck at putting a team together. Wish the Lions were the Patriots cause before Brady and Belichick the Patriots were complete dog shit as well.

@King Henry Wtf? Who tf doesn't want a generational player on their favorite team? So you're saying you'd rather watch busts on your team play? Wow man, I feel so bad for the team you root for 😂😂

They do now. Kerryon Johnson is legit.

Aaron T Jahvid Best, Ameer Abdullah, KJ, and now Swift. We’ve always had good RBs. But that don’t matter with our crap OLine blocking. We employed the worst OL coaches in Ron Prince and Jeff Davidson. And they were even worse in the Millen/Mayhew era

Nah he arguably had the best prime of all the WR's but for a total career, it wasn't even Top 5 and I'm a Lions fan.

Aaron T thats the lions fault not his

He couldn’t play regardless if fingers were permanently crooked stoping him from catching the balls good and they treated him like dirt

So forget reality and just base it off your opinion lol 😂. Jerry Rice by a mile.

Light Yagami thinking of that gives me cancer

Light Yagami bears fan here, that was a catch.

I'm a Bears fan but that's a catch

Bears fan here, that's a win :)

Bears fan here I was at that game, my dad and I thought forsure we caught a fat opening day L
