Dt was the man thats for sure. The sad thing is most of the NFL fans today dont realy rember how great DT was. Its a shame that his carrer was cut short then he would probley get the hipe he deserved.

I think however, the biggest reason he’s often forgotten as being great by the media and overall NFL fan base…is because the Chiefs had no Super Bowl appearances during DT’s career as a Chiefs.
In LT’s case…he has two Super Bowl victories & rings to his credit. Super Bowls seem to make a big difference with many players being imortalized by the media, which in turn keeps those players in the thoughts of fans overall…as being the greatest.
LT2’s prime is past him. He averaged a measly 3.3 YPC last year, which is below par for a RB in the NFL. Oh, guess who averaged 3.2YPC last year? A man that plays for the Bengals named LJ.
LT has the same exact YPC as Larry Johnson at 3.3 this season except LT’s much more injury prone….I don’t think anyone here wants that especially having JC and a worse O line than SD.
