Gheez, if his body wasnt made of glass he could still possibly be playing!

I can't think of any safety that played until 40.

Bob Sanders was a beast and key in that Tampa 2 style defense. For a guy his size he could lay the wood. Reminded me of a poor mans Brian Dawkins. He could hit, cover the field, get turnovers. Just not at the level Dawkins did it but was very impactful when he was on the field. But that was his issue, staying on the field.

His body wasn’t made of glass.  He played with reckless abandon.

He played the game like it was meant to be played, and enjoyed every minute of it.

He belongs in the ROH. DPOY in 2007 and without him we don't win the SB in 2006/07 IMO. Had he been able to play a solid 10 years without injury, he probably would be Hall of Famer. Unfortunately he was injured a lot.

thanks for the videos, I love Bob Sanders!

he looks like the only athlete on the field in those clips.

remember the 2006 super bowl interception?

that was awesome...

Just changed my signature to honor him.

Bob Sanders? Made of glass? He was 5' 8" tall. Guys who were 6' 4" and 6' 5" with 70 pounds on him said when Bob hit you, it hurt! He was a friggin beast.

I doubt he has a single regret as far as football goes.

I once had a chance to talk with one of the colts physicians in 2006 about who was physically the most impressive player to see in person... He said without a doubt Bob sanders just stood out from the others.

Sooooo.  we NEED a LT.  how many would be shocked if CB went Safety in the first if that was the  BPA.    

 

 

IMO.  DE 3 tech will LB and safety make this D ( in that order)   Middle LB would be next 

 

Know the scheme 

 

My Dad knows this D
