[@diegopons4622]

Deacon Jones, Lyle Alzado, and James Harrison.

[@OAKLAND_R8R]

On me Lyle was scary and deacon

[@donrobinson5662]

You can't do an intimidating list of any kind without having Jack Tatum on the list

[@tonymoreno1416]

Yeah that was my 1st thought along with Jack Lambert, Mean Joe Green, Deacon Jones, Earl Campbell,

[@3243_]

And Chuck Cecil, Doug Atkins, Rich "Tombstone" Jackson, Mike Curtis, Willie Lanier, Mel Blount, and Hardy Brown.

[@thedogman2576]

Steve Atwater.

[@ItsRayPerez]

couldn't agree more

[@mrsmilz.4thstgangdirtycurr821]

There should of been like 5 STEELERS In tht list. You were way off..lambert,ham,swan,Stallworth. James Harrison,Franco Harris!! Come on dude.. sixbrgh

[@michael199852]

James Harrison

[@jironthunder7519]

Jack Tatum is a glaring omission, Richard Dent & the 46 defense of the 85 Bears also deserve a shout!!!

[@h.donnellgrayiii4276]

Ronnie Lott?!

[@juanurbina3697]

There’s also “Mean” Joe Greene, Jack Lambert, Alan Page, Randy White, and Warren Sapp!

[@theyluvtravv]

those should've been the the 5 latter picks the 5 best were actually really solid

[@derelictrick6534]

Bill romanowski ?

[@theyluvtravv]

@@derelictrick6534 steve atwater was more feared on that team bill was just a jackass

[@h.donnellgrayiii4276]

Randy White!!

[@djquinn11]

Night Train Lane

[@johnclement4158]

I think you missed the best ever -- Gino Marchetti, Defensive End, Baltimore Colts # 89. Before sacks were an official NFL statistic, the Colt coaches went through an entire season's game films to see how many sacks he had that year. He had 40. That's FORTY. One season. He was huge, strong and quick. He often just flew right past the offensive lineman and was in the backfield just like that.

[@josephrose9226]

Earl Campbell deserves a mention.

[@Louispepitone]

I been saying that

[@j.thompson9345]

Can't help but think Sean Taylor would've been on this list if not for his unfortunate death.😢

[@LesTaylor-oc5ic]

YUP! NEED Sean on this list... only got a few years but was the hardest hitter ever

[@timstar28]

Definitely

[@J.C.3423]

I agree!!!

Lambert. Mean Joe. James Harrison. Greg Lloyd. (Unabashed Steelers fan here). However, others for consideration include Howie Long, Brian Bosworth, William “the Fridge” Perry, Christian Okoye, Mike Singletary, Warren Sapp, Terrell Suggs, Jerry Rice, Hines Ward, Merlin Olsen, Jack Tatum, Chuck Bednarik, Mike Webster, Lyle Alzado,… You could almost do a top 10 at every position. Lot of great O-Line guys, too, I’m just embarrassed at my lack of memory at the moment.

[@Raddy42]

Really, Dude Brian Bosworth could not carry the jock of any of those players you mentioned. 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

[@Dorotheeslutman9986]

My guy John Randle, painted his face, very intense scary dude, and has the most sacks by a defensive tackle in the history of football.

[@_DB.COOPER]

He was scared of Larry Allen.

[@williamsummerson1204]

Aaron Donald is going to break his record

[@_DB.COOPER]

@@williamsummerson1204 Larry Allen would have made Darnold cry.

[@williamsummerson1204]

@@_DB.COOPER I didn't say anything about Darnold.

[@_DB.COOPER]

@@williamsummerson1204 he would make you and Donald cry also!

[@eugeneflorence4355]

LT being #1 is very accurate. Maybe throw in the entire 85 Bear Defense for 3 or 4. Also I don't remember seeing Derrick Thomas from the Chiefs.

[@matthewelsasser9745]

Chuck Cecil smashed some heads back in the day.

[@Jdog2201]

I may be biased as a Panthers fan but 2 players come to mind as intimidating from Carolina, Steve Smith Sr, who straight up bullied DBs, and Luke Kuechly, who had a similar impact to Ray Lewis, except exchanged brutal hits for studying film, literally calling out offensive plays😂

[@peterpellechia5985]

Jerry rice had 22 TDs in 12 games in 1987.a record that will never be broken!!!

[@WilliamJones-sf5pt]

Dorsett was the prettiest scariest running back ever. No one dominated college - a man among boys - like Tony Dorsett. His long ago runs look so modern today. He would run seeming in slow motion with such control. Once he mapped out that path into the end zone, he was gone!

[@joseywales4874]

Dorsett was feared!!

[@aceassn716]

Too many dominant college runners Eric Dickerson Bo Jackson Thurman Thomas Barry Sanders

[@joseywales4874]

@@aceassn716 And none of those broke the record for most yards. Dorsett held the all time collegiate rushing yards record for 25-30 years.

[@mildol7271]

In my opinion. Mean Joe Green , Bob Lilly, Randy White, Lyle Alzado, and Howie Long deserve some recognition ❗️

[@dinocarfagna2449]

James Harrison dealt out concussions like they were M&M’s

[@davidbaron8330]

Not saying your wrong about LT being #1, but LT himself said Deacon Jones was the scariest ever. Jones played in that earlier Butkus, Nitschke era, and his signature moves -- the head slap and the clothesline, were already outlawed by the 80s. When LT snapped Theismann's leg, LT was horrified, and motioned the medics onto the field. Jones hated QBs so bad that he would have loved to have done that to EVERY QB he faced. He would have enjoyed it. Deacon had 173.5 sacks in an era where the NFL didn't track sacks. And you ought to look up Jack Tatum, as well.

[@dessiesolomonjr-nl6zl]

How you forget Derrick Thomas? He was a holy terror coming around the corner and getting to the QB. Pat Swilling too.

[@bryanhenderson1054]

How about James Harrison?

[@davidvenesky9053]

How about Earl Campbell. Undoubtedly one of the most punishing and intimidating runners of all time.

[@patricktemp2012]

Nailed it. Appreciate u goin back n putting some old school on there.

[@briangregory8223]

Honorable Mentions - Sean Taylor, Deacon Jones, Mike Singletary, Ronnie Lott

[@mrhaag]

Ronnie Lott is not an "honorable mention," he was a monster. Also, Mike Singletary.

[@alanhouston5874]

LT could do anything and then did on and off the field Must have been terrifying to think what was going to happen next when it was your turn to face him Loads of great stories of players admitting how scary he was, including an Eagles lineman who couldn’t sleep past Thursday on Giants week

[@linkdog.]

Sean Taylor. Because of his passion for the game, he left all of his anger on the field and was a family man. I truly believe that Sean could make it on to the top 10 someday. Even though his life was cut short he was a freak, his speed and power was great and unmatched for a safety.

[@neildean7568]

Great list. If you get a chance look up Bob Brown, he literally should probably be number one on this list, also deserving mention Jack Tatum, Lyle, Alzado, Joe Greene, Earl Campbell.

[@maxoutauto]

Night train lane have to be on the list

[@juanurbina3697]

Absolutely! Back then, there were no rules that favored the offense. They let the defense PLAY!

[@williamsummerson1204]

Lawrence Taylor is the greatest defensive player of all time and the most intimidating. I would have put Jerry Rice instead of Moss but still a really good job on this list.

[@Penny-yx3dh]

Great Video Bruh!

[@tapseer]

I'm a long suffering NY Jets fan. I have seen with my own eyes how Lawrence Taylor emasculated Ken O'Brien in a PRESEASON GAME. Not saying O'Brien was the best thing ever but he was never the same after that. Forever looking over his shoulder for LT 56

[@earlputnal9124]

Correct the actual time in the NFL for Ray Lewis he played 17 seasons and won two championships. He started in 1996. He retired after the Superbowl in 2013.

[@dessiesolomonjr-nl6zl]

Jack Lambert, Mel Blount, Jack Tatum, Steve Atwater deserved more than an honorable mention. Atwater laid Christian Okoye out, Ronnie Lott too, Deion was scary, Devin Hester because of his return abilities, Brian Dawkins

[@selymyllier]

Great list!!!!!

[@simonhowell4486]

Barry struck fear in players because he'd make you a highlight reel, he struck fear in defenses cause he'd get you fired. Barry's strength was his ability to stop on a dime, then start at the same speed.

[@WilliamJones-sf5pt]

Barry was second to Tony Dorsett. Barry was twenty pounds heavier at that. Tony was the biggest little man ever and not Barry or Emmit. Dorsett is the one that set the standard. He was the first to outrun the whole defense while never getting touched. Breathtaking. One didn't have to know football to see that he had a gift.

[@aceassn716]

Dallas fan here why is it nobody remembers all the fumbles Dorsett also had???

[@raiderx4148]

Dude you don't have Jack Tatum, Ronnie Lott, or Steve Atwater?

[@skiena]

"Son, you're gonna have to better than that."

[@billbeliakoff5589]

I think that Doug Plank deserves an honorable mention.

[@julianarchuleta1419]

You should have made this 2 separate videos. Dominating and intimidating aren’t always the same thing

[@caleofcaledonia6226]

Lots more guys you could add. Pretty good list

[@rojomontalvo9683]

También están John Linch, Tony Siragusa, Ladeinia Tomlimson, Shanon Sharpe, Jamal Lewis, Zach Thomas, Ricky William's, Daunte Culpeper que tenia cuerpo de Linbacker, ell ya muerto Dennis Bird, el ya muerto también Sean Taylor tan duro como el mismo Dawkings. Buen video.

[@michaelbasinger6533]

Great video. I was screaming shit I should have picked LT

[@_DB.COOPER]

Eric Williams dominated Reggie White and Larry Allen dominated everybody else! Brian Cox, Vontaze Burfict and Charles Haley made players keep their heads on a swivel.

Erik

@@aceassn716 Erick

[@JohnSmith-ls3um]

Chuck Bednarik? He’s one of the last two way players. He’s famous for being the guy standing over Frank Gifford in the black and white photo taken after he hit Gifford (look up “The Hit”), sending him out of the NFL for 18 months. Concrete Charlie was one bad dude. Oh and he was a war hero.

[@ItsRayPerez]

How is Jack Tatum not given an honorable mention?

[@paullatter1604]

You did at least mention Night Train Lane! Could he have covered Randy Moss? Depends on the rules at the time? People who played against Lane would put him up at the top. Funny no members of the Steal Curtain or the 1985 Bears? No Rams from the 1960’s? Need to do Top 10 Scariest Defenses, Top Ten Scariest Kick off and Punt returners. I like your concept of top 10’s.

[@davidlopez-wm6jx]

John Lynch is one and Jack Lambert is another scary dude

[@joseywales4874]

What you said about Barry is exactly how Dorsett was. Except once he got past the linebackers no one could catch him. Besides the one time Darrell Green did.

[@aceassn716]

As a Dallas fan be sure to look up How many fumbles Tony Dorsett had.. he had the yips

[@joseywales4874]

@@aceassn716 I agree with that. But one could argue the same on Barry Sanders plays that were negative losses as well. Both are elite backs.

[@hughmelochesr8560]

You need a special teams player on this list, and there was never a special teams player as intimidating as Devin Hester. He changed games for years when opposing teams simply refused to kick to him, giving the Chicago Bears terrific field position rather than chance a touchdown return.

Earl Campbell deserves a mention. He was frighteningly punishing. When then feared hitter Jack Tatum collided with Earl at the goal line, Tatum went backwards…. Campbell went forward right into the end zone.

[@wacojohnnydean1777]

Jack Lambert from the Steel Curtin Defense. He should be on here…

No Jack Tatum? You must be kidding me. Jack once issued a warning to opposing quarterbacks saying " if you throw the ball over the middle of the field, your receiver is going to get killed." Anyone remember his hit on Sammy White in Super Bowl 11? Probably is in the top 5 NFL hits of all time.
