    71 percent of the earth is covered by water , the rest is covered by ed reed
  • @bizzlea887
    His speech to his teammates at miami when he said "im hurt dawg" still gives me chills to this day
  • Him and Sean Taylor are the best safeties I’ve ever seen with my two eyes, I can’t speak on generations before that
  • @mainetain15
    Ed Reed, Troy Polamalu, Ronnie Lott, Sean Taylor are just Special. Best I've ever seen by far... and Brian Dawkins, Rod Woodson, Steve Atwater, John Lynch, Darren Woodson, Rodney Harrison.
  • As a Steelers fan he is one of Hardest Hitting Safeties in NFL History Ed Reed will definitely will not be denied at all make no mistake about it just this sure he's one of a kind player there's no question about it

    I remember Billick once recalling how on certain playes Reed suddenly rushed towards positions he had no business going to, with great results most of the time, only to explain later how, watching a ton of film on the QB he was facing, he realized how in this or that situation he would consistently thros here or there... tendencies even coaches failed to pick up on... heck, probably even the QBs themselves :)

    So glad he got his ring before having to call it quits. The best to ever play the position.

    The Ball hawk Ed Reed is The Best Safety in NFL History
  • @RiVer-Parish
    Louisiana has produced some spectacular talent.
  • @ahol9120
    I remember watching that draft and had no clue how he fell all the way to 24th. He was a stud at Miami. You knew he was destined to Canton!

    Ed Reed is one of the greatest players to play the safety position by learning from Ronnie Lott. He is one of the greatest defensive players to ever play for the Baltimore Ravens with Ray Lewis and Terrell Suggs. He is a ball hawk who finished his career with 64 interceptions.🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈

    The caption says how good that is an understatement. The man was amazing genius great at his craft iron sword.

    Another aspect this video doesn't mention is how much a film room warrior he was. He watched tape like very few others. Once when asked what sets him and Ray Lewis apart of the rest, maybe the first thing he mentioned was how much they both spent in the film room watching and disecting game film either alone or with theammates. By the time a game came, many times they knew the tendencies of the opponent's palyers almost better than those players themselves. They could literally foresee how a play would happen.
