Miska was a walk-on who busted his tail and hit like a ton of bricks. He was not the most athletic or talented, but I'd take him on my team. Put him a Brandon Johnson on the same team and the opponents will have nightmares about #45.

I can't choose anyone but Takeo Spikes. I love Dansby, and I still remember that beautiful assisted interception he made, when he jumped out of bounds and threw the ball back in to a teammate (Rosegreen, maybe?) before touching the ground, but it's just too hard to go against Takeo.

Kinda surprised Q hasn't gotten a little more love, though.

miska was a feel good story and as good as any lb we have now but in the top 13 of all time? i dont think so.

awesome play. He got flagged for throwing the ball forward though. Confused the refs for a while, but I knew if they were flagging it, then it was our ball.

WOW, what wonderful choices but break out the Cap'n Crunch.  Love me some cereal.....and bone crunching hits. 

KG played dual roles over the years, DE and OLB.  Greene and Dansby would be tied at a VERY close #2 for me.

didn't he play DE in college though? I voted Miska because that's the LB I grew up watching, but Spikes is probably the correct answer.

I believe you are correct sir. howdy.gif
