Nastiest Player in NFL History

[Cornerback6]

Eric Turner broke his back on a big hit and jogged off the field. That's pretty impressive. He used to murder people in the secondary. As far as nasty...I can't say. Romo seemed to have a certain diryt edge.

Deion Sanders.

That SOB would just knock the hell out of you .

 

[Big Papa]

Ronnie Lott has to be mentioned, I agree with Chuck Cecil and would like to add Dick "Night Train" Lane.

The old clips of Lane are brutal. Did he ever tackle a guy below the neck?

 

[iambrutus]

Dick Butkus, dude just wanted to hurt guys

 

[CookyPuss]

I've gotta go with Butkus.

Going back even further, Chuck Bednark deserves honorable mention.

 

[CookyPuss]

Turkey Jones

 

[CookyPuss]

And how can you forget Conrad Dobler?

 

[SanAntonioBuck]

Former Eagles' strong safety Andre "Dirty" Waters

 

[Buckeye Buh Nim]

And how can you forget Conrad Dobler?

muck, you beat me to the punch on Dobler errr gobbler.

 

[BayBuck]

Mark Schlereth freely admits to pissing his pants in-game: now that's nasty. :tongue2:

 

[daddyphatsacs]

Lambert
Tatum
Butkus
Lott

I think John Lynch is one of the nastiest players these days.

 

[OSUBucks22]

Lawrence Taylor...

 

[cincibuck]

Any other geezers out there remember defensive end Ed Sprinkle of the Chicago Bears? He was a certified sumbitch. I saw him clothesline Otto Graham and take him out of a game. It was the most penalized game in NFL history at that time... 1953 I believe, Cleveland Memorial Stadium.

And let us not forget Dirty Erich Barnes opf the Browns and Giants.

Oh, you mean back when you were allowed to tackle the Quarterback? Ah, the good old days....
