Troy Polamalu Top 50 Most Dynamic Plays! 

Troy Polamalu had a phenomal once-in-a-lifetime talent that could not be taught.

The fact that he can have a top 50 highlight of anything is insane and proves he’s the best of the best

This dude gave 100% effort on every single play and it showed. What a legend

I'm a huge Ravens fan, and this guy scared the sh** out of me every time we had to play Pittsburgh. Truly one of the greatest defenders of all time, much respect and one of my favorite players.

Don't show this to Pat McAfee. He's still not over having his life ruined by Polamalu lining up in the C-gap

Noone could anticipate the ball or the snap count better than #43. Him and Ed Reed are the top safeties of my generation.

I'm taking 30 mins to watch a 10min video because this dude making me rewatch every single one of these plays

None of us will ever forget the old one

6:02 I don't feel like enough people are talking about this *backwards tackle.*

The title should really be "Troy Polamalu: The Most Dynamic Player of All Time"

Yo he's the kind of safety that'd have 5 abilities in Madden while being an X-Factor

1:29 me watching this for the first time: oh he’s wide open Polamalu: allow me to introduce myself

The highlights do not do justice. Made plays like this in every game he played. Best player I watched. Never missed a game.

What an unbelievable athlete. They don't make em like him anymore

At 5'10 he was small for a DB, but he could sack a QB, tackle a RB at full speed, and cover any WR or TE. The guy had a nose for the ball and was actively involved in essentially every play. And he was a class-act who went back to the line of scrimmage or the sideline as soon as the play was dead.

Troy "every hit is a hitstick" Polamalu

3:24........Troy Polamalu is such a defensive beast he's got dudes doing break dance moves!!

The greatest safety of all time. Miss you Troy

3:23 Troy Polamalu turned that guy into a breakdancer against his will

He’s always been one of my favorite players

There will never be a player as versatile as Polamalu period.

Bro legit was one of the best playmakers in the NFL

8:06 that has to be the fastest sack in nfl history.

6:39 and 10:03. That was classic Steelers' defense back in our glory days. Harrison wacks the quarterback, Polamalu does the rest. Harrison + Polamalu both won DPOY's. What a duo.

Polamalu was the total package safety that was an amazing asset for Pittsburgh, but feared by everyone else. Knew how to read the snap, had the catching ability and speed of a wideout. Truly amazing.

There will never be another player like Polamalu. GOAT

No one could jump the snap better than Troy Polamalu

Never will be another one like him he the 🐐

His timing on the snap was unworldly truly amazing athlete

I don’t even watch football, but I remember as a kid seeing one of the plays where he jumped the scrimmage line. And, similar to how I don’t watch boxing but I love watching videos of Mohammad Ali, I love watching this guy’s highlights. What an artist of an athlete.

One of the greatest safety in NFL history

Never get tired of watching Troy highlights

Troy P. was was an absolute beast. So athletic and intelligent.

Only real ones remember the green screen

He picked the ball so many times that he got immediately knew to get up and keep running for 20 more yards. He had the ball so often he doubled as a running back😂

I miss that man. One of the greatest to ever wear that uniform

28 is one of my favorite plays of his. Perfect example of the type of player he was. Always seemed to come out of nowhere.

Ed Reed and Troy Polamalu are neck and neck for overall greatness...but in terms of sheer athleticism, Polamalu is the most athletic safety in NFL history, no doubt.

Every time I watch this I get goose bumps like it's the 1st time ever seeing it. Troy is my all time favorite Steeler

Who remembers when Troy got fined for saying the game is getting soft 😂 😂

The way he makes a crazy play and just walks away like nothing happened

In his prime, Troy was the terminator. No man could stop him.

One of the best Strong Safety's in the NFL History! Here we go Steelernation 💛

Troy Polomalu will never be forgotten. Legends never die

Lol rip the green screen. Also I’m 95% sure that Polalamu is a time traveler. Rip Pat McAfee’s TD.

Only 50??? Nah No Way I’ve seen him do more then 50 in a single season let alone his entire career. Let’s get this straight he was the BOOM before the legion.

There is no question why this guy is in the HOF. A career of incredible plays and even more incredible effort given. This guy is a legend.

I watched the play at 6:22 like 10 times. Troy had hands on the QB as soon as he touched the ball. Unbelievable.

And he’s not getting up after every play showboating and taunting. He’s fixing his uni and getting ready for the next play

The way he flipped the switch from a soft spoken guy to a ferocious uncompromising defender was stuff of legend LOL and with a highlight reel like that there was no way he wasn't making it to Canton!

I love how hype Troy got after making the play on clip #44. Maybe it’s been a while but I rarely remember Troy being that demonstrative and that’s what made him so different to me as a kid. One of my favorite players of all time

#40. Did this dude just do a "360 look around hesitation" 13 yard sack? That was crazy!!

He was a gifted freak. Dude read an offense better than anyone

My favorite defensive player of all time. Always a class act on and off the field. Most fun defense to watch for sure!

What a spectacular player Polamalu was! What is this? A gift from nature to us mortals.

I watch this legends highlights a few times a year. Goosebumps everytime

Troy Polamalu one of the best all timers. One of the all time best defensive players.

It's 2024 and watching this man never gets old. Just... How? You're talking about the NFL. Best of the best. And then, every now and then, you get a guy who makes everyone else look like amateurs. Incredible. I'm glad I got to witness 💚

Thank you for everything Troy. Steelers Nation will love you forever. 💓😭👏🏾

1:38 smoothest sack of all time lol

One of my favorite players Troy is the best Pacific Islander to play in the NFL

As soon as he saw the ball being thrown downfield, he was upfront, turned around and ran downfield to help, ended up getting the tipped pick. Nobody huskes like that in the NFL anymore. He gave 100% every play. IQ of Einstein on the field. Coaches dream player with no dramas and kept to himself.

6:02 That backwards tackle!

Troy went to Douglas high school in Winston Oregon, the exact same town both my parents grew up in, as well as the same high school. Mom was a cheerleader at Douglas and told me how everyone was always so amazed at how incredible he really was. I always thought it was amazing that she was able to see him play before he joined the big leagues.

Play number 18 was hilarious. How the helll 😂

This man was LB playing Safety

Been watching Troy Polamalu since his USC days. The man was just a special football player. Some guys just have that “it” factor, and Troy was that guy. Whether you needed a big play, a tackle or an INT, Troy was always the guy able to make that play. Him and Ed reed were the two greatest safeties of an era where the safety position was full of HOF guys (Brian Dawkins, John Lynch, Sean Taylor, Earl Thomas etc.)

I was in that end zone when he scored on that number 1..crowd was electric

I'm not even a Steelers fan but holy poop. There will never be another troy. Wow

Omg how I wish I could get Troy polomalu agains king Henry 👑

This guy was a beast. Strong, smart, fast, perfect timing. Absolute legend.

This dude would have to be the actual 100 on madden!

Troy was one of my favorite packers. He was a Steel Curtain by himself. Outstanding guy and most impressive football player. Yea those were the days.

Grew up watching him in highschool. Great memories! Me and my mom just called him Troy. And some of my highschool peers used to call me "Polamalu" as a form of endearment I guess lol. Love his highlights!

Troy play in Pittsburgh back field was different hands down one of the best defensive players ever

2000’s was the best era for safeties! Troy, Ed Reed, Brian Dawkins, Bob Sanders(people forget about him), John lynch, o and my Bears Mike Brown(idc what anybody says, before injury, he was top 3!)

Polamalu was teleporting behind o lines. What a talented and humble man.

Born and die heart Steelers fan

Wonderful memories! What a throw back. He truly was ruthless and relentless in every single game play by play. Hats off to the man!

The best to ever play in the backfield Troy Polamalu is the 🐐

Lifelong Steeler fan here who misses days like these so much. Watching games when Troy was hunting out on that field was unforgettable. Hands-down the best Safety the game of football as ever seen. Absolute beast, legend, and GOAT.

Sick. Super sick, dude!!!!!! Saw his entire career. Hate the Steelers as a Boys fan. Well earned HOF honors for Polamalu!

God those top 5 plays are etched into my memory. I could tell what room I was and the tv make. Troy, Hines, Harrison, Ben, Clark, and Bettis were my hero’s

To this day, you still don’t see people timing the snap count like this man.

Best all around safety to play the game in my opinion. Ed Reed was legendary in his own right but Polamalu was just a different beast.

I got to see top 2 live.. Amazing talent! Miss watching him play

One of my favorite players ever. He is incredible.

I was bout to say 😂Troy shouldn’t be number 50 on no list lol

Greatest safety of all time

He's the best strong safty in the N.F.L period. His anticpation game is off the charts.to sum it up, A SILENT ASSASIN.

The best highlights of his are his incredible on handed interceptions

Maaaaaaaaannnnnnnn!!!!! I was privileged to see Troy in a time where the NFL was raw and uncut, Imagine just a handful of legendary players like Sean Taylor(RIP) Jason Taylor, Ed Reed, Deion Sanders, and so on and so on but Troy was different. Watching him play was sometimes like watching WWE or WWF wrestling in the terms of the excitement level that he raised the game to. Everything about his persona worked so well for that era, He is one in a million and also the fact he was on a team like the Steelers with a organization run the way that it is also helped foster his career too.

Polamalu's game was all about... . . . .... timing

the long hair just makes it better

My favorite football player ever he was a beast

This guy...just amazing!

JUST THE BEST NFL PLAYER EVER. NIT JUST IN POSITION BUT IN 🏈 IN GENERAL

Best defense player all time😊

Of course the number one play took us to the Super Bowl XLIII, the Súper Bowl with his number.

They'll never be another Troy Polamalu#43. Long live the Legend!!!! Here we go Steelers here we go!!!
