Aqib Talib - NFL Record Chase

Broncos CB Aqib Talib tied for interception TDs with some NFL legends


I have bounced around in what I have thought about Aqib Talib, but I love this guy's game. He is tied with Deion Sanders and Aeneas Williams for number of Pick 6's in his career. He is amazing with interceptions in the return game. Something to look forward to in this season.

I love the guy. I know his " attitude " rubs many wrong way but aside from his obvious pass defense skills, what separates him from many of the others, is his tenacity in the run game. He is not afraid to hit you and is exceptional tackler.

I love Talib. He also brings an energy to the defense and the other players feed off of him. It doesn't hurt that he gets in the heads of the opponents receivers too.

So many fun things to look forward to this year. Five days until camp!

It's crazy to think he could break a Deion Sanders return record.... Aeneas Williams is the most underrated CB of my time followed by Antoine Winfield. Stoked when Williams made it to the hall finally getting his much deserved love.

Have to give big thumbs up to both especially Williams. Much deserved HOF induction.

I know no one likes "thug" players but Talib brings an intensity to the team that we havent had in a long time. I remember just a few years ago how everyone was saying we're too soft because there was no fight in any of our players. While not the best I treat it more like hockey and every team needs an enforcer that won't let you push them around

Agreed. Can't have a bunch of saints and still expect to have an historical defense. All great defenses have some guys with edge that other players feed off of. For us Talib is one of those guys.

I will say this though the one negative of his personality that I don't like is when the team does start losing he is not exactly the guy you like standing up and speaking. When the team is winning he is a lightning rod to keep the team focused and energized. Last year though I do think his negativity fed into some of the divide for the team. Love the guy though and so glad we have him on our side.
