Ricky Roma
The Catch
I should have been more clear, outside LB.
Even Still how many of them could do what Brooks Did? None. Yet Brooks could do what they did, not as well but not as bad as if Ray Lewis tried to Cover WRs... Or Butkus, that would have been funny...
The ONLY reason Brooks is not listed is his Assignment was moving backwards not forwards. Because he was the only one who could. As Moving Backwards is Infinitely Harder in Football.
No Other LB could cover and stop the run as well as Derrick Brooks. None.
Jack Ham could, did, and did it better than Derrick Brooks.
