Still on Dorsett and that Darrell Green tackle in 83

[TonyDorsett]

I have to say it every few months regardless if anyone listens or cares: Darrell Green was fast but he had an angle on Dorsett AND Dorsett was slowing down at the end of that 77 yard run on Monday Night Football. I dont think Green could have normally walked Tony D down - I am a fanatic but I am logical. Comments :blink:

I don't think you will get to many comments on this. Most of our members were not even alive or old enough to know what you are talking about.

If it makes you feel any better I am old enough and watched that game and yes I agree with you.

Hey I watched that game as well and I could not believe he got caught from behind. He did take a good angle though

[DCfan60]

Well I saw it.. an Green did have the angle.. I will say I agree that Green was one of the fastest in the NFL... ever...

But he had the angle.. nuff said.

Green was amazing fast. He was the only guy that could've caught TD. He made many plays like that in his career. TD was fast, but Green was faster.

I not only remember the run, but I remember watching Green win the NFL Fastest Man competition on ABC's Wide World of Sports.
