Actually LT is right he is the leader in sacks they didn't count his rookie year sacks because it was 1981 and they didn't start doing it until 1982, but he has 142 sacks VS Strahan's 141.5 Look up the stats.

You are 100% correct. LT had 9.5 sacks in ‘81 which were not counted as sacks were not an official stat until ‘82. He is the all-time Giants leader technically. Great career from Strahan as well.

@petedog9581 2 года назад

LT bought me a beer when the Giants were in town for a joint practice with the Browns in 1992. He was really polite and appreciated that everyone was not asking for autographs and such. It was crazy that like 20 NFL players were mingling with the peeps and nobody really cared. Everybody just drank at the bar like any other Saturday night. It would be way different now, with annoying cellphones and everyone trying to get selfies. The players prolly wouldn't even entertain doing that now.

Stra was one of the best ends in the NFL. When he played the end he'd never let anyone get that corner on a run or pass. He played it to perfection. You see these other players try to make highlight reels running in leaving the corner open for whatever. Michael played the position spot on.

@darrylwoodbury Год назад

LT was unstoppable during his playing days. They had to change the game because of him. I had the opportunity to meet him during a football camp when I was a kid and after doing some drills, I walked off the field with him and talked to him. It was the coolest thing ever. He was nice to me. I was already a Giants fan, but I became a mega Giants fan because of that moment. I'm still a huge Giants fan to this day and that unforgettable moment happened 30+ years ago.

In my opinion LT is the first defensive rock star type player. If there is no LT, then there is no Prime Time and defensive players are still kind of in the background of the media and all. I feel like LT was the first real star on defense. There were dozens of great players before him. But making the defense something you have to watch. That feeling you have that was normally reserved for an offensive player. Yeah, LT is that guy. Game changer, league changer.

@junserafin5241 Год назад

Not sure how it is now, but after LT retired NOBODY would wear 56 on any team, ANY TEAM because they didn't want to be compared to LT. That was his number, people were scared to wear it. Respect had something to do with it, but it wasn't all. And that's the only players number which that happened to. Then I think it was some years later you would see a 56 somewhere- maybe from a guy that didn't know better. It's as if 56 was tacitly and silently prohibited.

Much respect for LT. In ‘96 I moved my family to Pleasanton, CA where my son played on Joe & Mike Madden’s Freshman Team. On a Sunday afternoon we watched LT and later I took Robert and Mike DiMaggio Joe’s great nephew), and their friends to a park where we played. LT was Robert’s favorite and studied LT’s moves. They went undefeated that year and my son had more sacks than the team combined. Mrs. Madden sponsored a lunch-party for them. Sadly, six years later my son was killed but LT was always his favorite NFL player!

@paulmysliborski4832 9 месяцев назад

Taylor was the best defensive player in NFL history. No questions. He struck terror into 300lb offensive linemen, and Offensive coordinators. But Strahan was a straight-up animal that could change a game on his own as well. Very few Offensive Tackles could handle him without holding, and he shut the run game down with the same ferocity that LT did. If LT's rookie year sacks were counted, he'd have 142. But without cutting hairs, how impressive is a true "hand in the dirt " defensive end matching LT's sacks? Micheal Strahan is on the Mount Rushmore of NY Giants, ALL time.
