As good as they defense was they never had to face an extremely fast option offense with an athlete like Lamar. I think that offense could catch them off guard with their speed. Fun to think about. I don't think so.. Lewis, Scott, Boulware and Reed.. one of those guys would have destroyed him.. they don't make defenses like that anymore. Especially if they played with the rules from then... Lamar would be toast Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That historic run game vs that historic rush defense would have been something to see.. Man... what an incredible “unstoppable force meets immovable object” scenario Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lamar would be toast Scott and Reed weren’t on that team. Jamie Sharper was likely a better player than Scott though. And Rod Woodson at FS was no slouch either.

FalconFan13 Posted May 8, 2021 Share Posted May 8, 2021 This would be a good matchup for the Falcons on one hand you have the defense with the lowest scoring total allowed ever in the 77 Gritz Blitz with an all out pass rush attack. 9.2 PPG allowed, 231.6 YPG allowed, 3.7 net yards per play, and 3.4 turnovers per game Vs the 2016 Superbowl team that is in the top 10 all time in most points per game Ryan won mvp that year with almost 5k yards 38 td's and 7 int's and the running game was potent as well with Freeman going for 1500 total yards and 4.8 YPC.

onejayhawk Posted May 8, 2021 Share Posted May 8, 2021 For the Chiefs, the eras are too different for realistic comparison. What would be interesting would comparing the Priest Holmes era offenses with the Derrick Thomas era defenses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jakuvious Posted May 8, 2021 Share Posted May 8, 2021 Does this hypothetical game count as a playoff game? Because I feel like that would settle any arguments regarding which Ravens unit would win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
