I love Levon, he was such a great part of Steeler history. Wishing him health and happiness from a grateful fan.

@kentsturgill5945 Год назад

Quite possibly the most underrated lb ever ! This dude was a fucking monster

@joshpitts7256 Год назад

Damn Right 💪

@davidmitchell6873 Год назад

A freak of nature player. I really wish the the guys on defense in that era could have won a Superbowl together.

@stevekosak8624 Год назад

Man everyone loved this man even other fans of other teams would always say how can he be so big and so fast!!!! one my all time favorite STEELERS!!!!!

@raider61x Год назад

this guy looked so intimidating on the field. those shoulder pads were so wide! a lot of fun to watch play. he was really all over the field.

@anthonyfesta7010 Год назад

Awesome player. Thanks 99!

@rainfall7661 Год назад

THANKS for being a steeler, ENJOYED you playing with us

@jtstone7632 Год назад

Loved that era’s defense…A true champion caliber defense that had good to great players at practically every position.

@Steeleroneify Год назад

Levon, I loved watching you play. Incredible and powerful. No one could run on your defense. Thanks for all the great memories.

@dodoubleg2356 Год назад

I have no problem referring to Cam Heyward as Levon Kirkland 2.0, ha. LK was 270lbs+ covering receivers 35-40yds downfield & on the next play sack the QB...absolute MACHINE. Only person I ever saw THAT BIG, run THAT FAST, was his teammate, TE Eric Green. Also, he was a consumate professional, just like Heyward. Loved watchin' him play. 🖤💛

@everettcarson1473 Год назад

We need more big and fast players. I'm from South Carolina too

@AB-iw4kw Год назад

Levon had a great career with the Steelers. He was outstanding in SB XXX. One of my favorite Steelers for those 90s teams. Great interview Stan!

@robertmarbella7715 Год назад

Kirkland was an absolute MONSTER for the Steelers

@robfortes171 Год назад

My absolute favorite player of this era. I met him his rookie year when I traveled from Massachusetts to see them face the Giants in NJ. We stayed in the same hotel as the team and I met him in the gift shop looking for batteries for my camera. He was as humble as you could imagine. He actually came to the bar and had a drink with us. We had beers and he had a water..lol. Spent $380 to get an authentic Kirkland jersey straight from Pittsburgh (no internet sites back then). Best Steelers jersey ever, to this day. He encapsulated everything about that linebacker core. Great interview. #99

@diegosez4285 Год назад

All-Time great Steeler! I met him a few years after he retired and he was still a HUGE man! I swear his neck was as big as my thighs! Centerpiece to the greatest 4 man LB Corps. Wonderful,thoughtful,humble man.

@vasilakiskosta Год назад

what an amazing interview. I loved him as a player but knew nothing about him. WOW, a better than expected moment. ....positive energy. Thank you Levon

@joseramos3401 Год назад

Kirkland is a soul reason why became a Steeler fan.

@infinity2z3r07 Год назад

Levon was the jewel of that insane 1992 draft class (Leon Searcy, Levon Kirkland, Joel Steed, Darren Perry) that turned the Steelers around instantly. We need another Levon desperately lol

@AlBeQuirky Год назад

Levon Kirkland is probably my favorite Steelers linebacker with the Steelers Franchise

@johnnygold753 Год назад

He Was my favorite linebacker in the 90z Man he could move! Always around the ball. I only wish we could go back in time and put him in the middle now cause he could cover which was NUTS!

@kentsturgill5945 Год назад

I remember this guy covering wrs 30-40yds down field making over the shoulder picks. Incredible athlete

@ardvarksimmons Год назад

Levon was so fun to watch

@marknethercutt3381 Год назад

Levon Kirkland was a beast

@joshhoward1289 3 дня назад

What a great guy and a joy to watch on the field. Thanks for those great memories #99.

@NickY918 Год назад

My high-school field was Kirkland field so I've always liked him as a player

@olandowilliams4055 Год назад

He was definitely a beast one of my favorites of all time.

@03Man11 Год назад

Had the 90s teams won a SB, those defenses would’ve been thought of as legendary.

@dionshare7103 Год назад

As a Steeler fan I must say I've always admired our ability to find great linebackers.

@xycid Год назад

Levon Kirkland is the reason I became a Steelers fan for life

@mikegiles9702 Год назад

I'm proud of you great move becoming a Steelers fan

@mileslenko3560 Год назад

I was such a huge fan of Levon's. Even bigger now after seeing this interview. Seems like a great guy.

@ronniedudley2697 Год назад

One of my favorites 😎

@Grimior00 Год назад

A big man with quick feet

@victoryasher1729 Год назад

Uhhh…that’s Bettis 😂😂😂 Just kidding. I was always amazed at watching Levon play. Watching someone that big with speed covering someone downfield? Just mentally hit me different.

@elbob17 Год назад

I had a Kirkland jersey back in the 90s.

@toddbowser9415 9 дней назад

In my humble opinion you & Jack were the 2 best MLB’s in Steeler history!! He was soooo big,but soo fast!! That size didn’t slow him down at all

@korymacdowell3881 Год назад

Big Boy Levon was a beast!

@johnmachon6013 Год назад

Loved watching you play,miss that swagger y'all had

@jr.kendle7230 Год назад

If the Steelers beat the Cowboys in SB XXX Kirkland probably gets the MVP. That’s how well he played.

@tigermachine6471 3 месяца назад

One of my all time favs! Im partial to the LBs and the RBs while growing up in the 80’s and Kirkland was so much fun to watch! He was truly a clutch performer!

@mensahtalk2367 9 месяцев назад

Greatest linebacker crew ever assembled

@Rattlesnake12 Год назад

Truly a great Steeler and enjoyed watching him play! What a beast!!

@johnnierobles2304 Год назад

Thank you so much for this very well done what a fabulous football player to watch. And a much better person

@danielhathaway43 Год назад

Best player on the field in SB 30.. NO DOUBT

@JokerJ. Год назад

Love Levon! So good to see him again

@heritagecarpetcleaningrest309 Год назад

Levon is one of my favorites. Great to see this interview

@ExPhysWithG Год назад

My dad wore his jersey during my birth, today at 25, I found that same jersey and had to see some highlights

@timking-iy9jw 13 дней назад

#99 was incredible! Like seeing a DT play sideline to sideline. Crazy combo of talent & size.

@sch7194 Год назад

Love 99...It killed me when he left the Burgh 🔥👊🔥🌗🌗🌗🌗

@TattooVO Год назад

The Good Reverend Doctor. Man he was great. An unsung member of those great 90s Steelers defenses

@band-t6881 Год назад

Loved watching Levon. He confessed on the mistake during SB XXX and Emmitt's big 20yrd+ run in the 1st qtr. #22 ended up with less than 50 yards for the whole game! What a testament to that defense going against arguably the greatest offensive line in history. Really miss those guys- including coach C.

@playamadetx Год назад

Loved this guy

@dagorilla5177 Год назад

You was so dope bro! Y’all ….! I thought needed/ should’ve gotten a ring!👏🏾🙌🏾🥇

@roberttaylor6694 9 месяцев назад

Levon Kirkland/BEAST ⚫🟡

@JoeBrown Год назад

Great player

@racer7x498 Год назад

Big Kirk was like the first Giant that lined up as a linebacker. All time Steeler legend

@dustingoulding9320 Год назад

99 you was awesome! Big man in the middle....,? You should of been on the line! Lol Love you 99! Big influation in me..! Thank you

@truthhandler3460 Месяц назад

This man, Levon Kirkland, along with Greg Lloyd, should be in the pro football hall of fame.

@erikyoung256 7 месяцев назад

Good dude!

@beatease5992 Год назад

I remember Levon making a diving interception in the rain on Monday night football, arguably the best interception I've ever seen.

@mattroberts9569 5 месяцев назад

Wow! This i think is a great question. Much as i loved jack lambert i also loved watching kurtland! But which was better? Both were freaken great!!!! Kirkland's size and speed was unheard of. Let's hear everyone's choice

@TheBlaster54 Год назад

I still have Levon Kirkland poster hanging on my wall.

@jamesrandolph6021 2 месяца назад

He makes that chair look like a kiddie chair.

@rainfall7661 Год назад

along with lloyd

@richardmusserii5392 Год назад

I have his number 99 jersey.

@steelspike5619 6 месяцев назад

Disappointed that the Myron Cope call on Levon's over-the-shoulder INT wasn't included, "A 300 LB MAN RUNNING LIKE A GAZELLE!!!"

@gilbogilbo79 Год назад

Why the music in the background ? I wanna hear the conversation, not music.

@nickg7708 Год назад

He deserves to win that super bowl in 95'. Coach Cowher should have benched Neil O' Donald for Cordell Stewart. What a shame...

@jwsteelers1 Год назад

Yes insert a rookie with 7 pass attempts on the season against that Dallas D. Great plan. O'Donnell blew the game but we wouldn't have been close with Kordell

@MrBeyondbelief Год назад

Actually Cowher planned to use all the tricks in the bag, and he didn;t!! Then strategy changed after falling behind 13-0. If not for those 2 INT's that O'DONNELL threw straight to Larry Brown, the Steelers would have won 17-13. THe great EMMITT Smith got only 47 yards???? Half of it on one play. LOVED that sack by Levon on Aikman and I thought the Steelers would pull it out after that.
