Any one who ever saw 5 foot nothing climb up 7 foot Harold Carmicheal's back and beat him about the head and shoulders then dare him to get up and run another route has not seen true greatness. {heights were added for dramatic effect]. No disrespect to Mr Green intended.

That's Heart and Desire, not Greatness. The reality is that Harold Carmichael won most of his battles with Fischer.
Green was never dominated and often took the best WR out of the game...... |

Any man who can still run a 4.2 at the age of 40, after playing in the NFL for 19 years gets my vote....

Anyone remember the game in the Metrodome between the Vikes and the Skins (I think around 1998) when Darrell was about 36 and matched up with Randy Moss, and Dennis Green called for deep ball after deep ball to Moss? Darrell must have broken up half a dozen of those 40+ yard jump balls thrown to Moss and held Randy to about 6 catches for 50 yards for the day. Moss has 2 fewer career TDs than Carmichael in only 6 seasons (Carmichael played 14)...I'd say shutting down the most lethal deep threat time and time again over the course of a game is true greatness. |

D. Green did what he did with Speed, talent and desire. Sometimes greatness can not be measured by speed, and talent. Pat Fisher was a small man with no great talent except the heart
of a lion. Each week Pat Fisher lined up against taller, faster, and stronger wideouts and I'll bet each time they said @#!%% not this guy again. p.s. Harold Carmicheal said on NFL films the db he hated to face the most was Pat Fisher. OK, D. Green was the greatest. But it would have been nice to see Pat on the same field on the other side.

As a kid, my favorite defensive player was Lamar Parrish.....until DG came to town. Loved the way he (Parrish) played. If it wasn't for Darrell Green, Lamar would be my second choice (tied with Champ).

1906, nice to see I'm not the only Parrish fan out there! I wouldn't rip anyone that voted Fischer though, what was he? 5'-6'?...25? years later I still remember him taking out Giants te Tucker in piggyback fashion! Yeah jumped his back and kicked the dudes kneecaps to bring him down!!! BALLS, GUTS!!! Champ never evoked any emotion in me for some reason.
