If you’re old enough to remember Hootie and the Blowfish and when Robin Williams was funny, you are old enough to remember that time when the Chiefs’ defense won with intimidation. They hit the quarterback. More than that, they baited the quarterback, tempted the quarterback, blindsided the quarterback — at the end of those games, you would see quarterbacks walking slowly out of stadiums, stopping every so often to make sure nobody was following them.
Go Get Em D!

Derrick Thomas
1989 Defensive Rookie11/11/90: Record 7 Sacks
Ya know... There was a football card of DT that was the best looking card I have ever seen. Dave Kreig was balled-up, in the fetal position and DT was over him, on one knee, with his head up and a puff of "steam" coming from his facemask. I have several of that exact card, in my collection. I also have a DT ROY card with his autograph and a couple of game-used cards as well.
That sounds cool. I wish I had a collection!Quote:

I think with all the talent we have on D, we will be number 1 defense. Maybe not this year but sooner than later. Arent we ranked 4th total defense right now?Quote:

He has a LONG way to go to get to DT status. I personally, don't think DJ will get to that same level as DT because he won't get all the sacks DT had nor have the HUGE games getting 6 and 7 sacks like DT did. I think DJ is and will be an absolute stud in the NFL but DT was something special you don't see but maybe once every 25 years or more. I've NEVER seen a linebacker with a pass rush like Thomas.Quote:

Canada, maybe you should set up an autograph session with the WHOLE team. I like the chances.Quote:

I don't doubt that DJ is going to be great. I just don't see him breaking all of DT's records either, though. I think you are right in the fact that DJ will turn out to be more like Donnie, which is not a bad thing at all.Quote:
