Charles Woodson is the greatest CB of all time hands down. Sanders is the greatest freak of nature football player of all time. What does that mean? I don't know but I'm a Michigan fan so...
Deion's baseball acumen helped him with his timing, when getting an int. What Deion did often was bait the q.b by slightly trailing, or sagging off the intended receiver then with his knowledge of the play, his timing, and athletism recover.
He once baited Rocket Ishmael when Dallas played the Raiders. The QB overthrew Rocket who had a step or two on Dione & before the ball came down Primetime closed so fast to get in front of Rocket Ismail and it looked like the pass was intended for him. Madden talked about that play for a majority of the game after that. His speed was crazy.
Deion was something to behold, He is my top pick for best athlete I've ever seen in my lifetime by far. He was blessed to never have a career ending injury.
@@user-sg8kq7ii3y agreed, Deion was better based on performance & staying on the field. EXAMPLE: What good is a 4.1 forty time if you only lasted a year in the NFL?
@@ericmcgowan1993 lol. Dang man, did that comment went right over your head? We are saying, Deion was a special athlete who made plays every time he got his hands on the football. Primetime was not the playmaker but “a” playmaker indeed.
He basically just mastered the art of hanging back, reading the qb, and then essentially becoming the receiver after the ball was thrown. Of course this takes world class speed and athleticism to pull off.
Yeah. Jalen is extremely athletic and good. No corner has been as quick twitch as Deion. Jalen honestly isn’t close. He just taller and has a hell of a broad jump.
Right...I am a Canes fan from Ohio, so that Rivalry isn't as important or big to me. Of course when they play it's big to me. But I don't hate the Noles like my family in Florida does Lol. I became a fan after my mom bought me a Hurricanes book bag in 3rd grade. My family in Florida told me the rivalry down there is like Ohio State vs Michigan up here. I miss when college football opened the season with the Canes vs Noles.
The athleticism and speed he showed in the punt return vs Clemson is simply amazing. He made the everyone else on that field look un-athletic and slow. He was obviously a great athlete, but he was also one of the smartest players to ever play the game. Watch the way he baited QB’s into throwing his way. Awesome!!!
@@hhh1200 naw. You don’t. Just don’t put yoursef in a position in which you need 4.2 speed. Besides, its a saying in football. “If I’m even, im leavin”. Jalen and stephon are great at turning their head. Both run 4.4 flat. Obviously, not as good as Deion but som players still know how to play dB
I'd say Bo was the best athelete of his generation but his body did not hold up and he didn't have the longevity. For my $, Prime is the best athelete of his generation, is the best cb ever (not close), and really is one of the most athletic beings in the history of humanity. Glad I'm old enough to have seen this man play in real time. Breath taking. Electric. Legend.
2:20 Deion with the incredible interception, by a well thrown bomb, over Andre Rison!! Andre would later catch a pass and Juke Deion for a TD score. The two battled it out throughout the game. And would then become Teammates in the NFL for Atlanta Falcons...Better known as Primetime/Showtime
Don't forget about #17 Charlie Ward. Heisman trophy winner and NCAA Champion. Arguably one of the best college QBs ever. Unfortunately that didn’t translate to the NBA but he's a FSU football legend nonetheless. Def all respect to Coach Prime tho
It was amazing how fast he was and how amazing his vision was. One thing that made him great was that he could catch. He was in the qb and best receivers heads before the game even started
He caught an interception off of Farve they played in Atlanta together! Caught an interception over Rison and Irvin that he both played with in Atlanta and Dallas...Bananas!
Charlie Ward was the most exciting and best player in Florida State football history... You start on the basketball team and was drafted out of high school for baseball and he was class President and graduated.
Lucky for Deion the ref missed the false start on Melvin Bratton 5:08, the play would have been blown dead. These FSU / Miami games were monumental during this era.
Deion made it all look EASY! That is how great he was. Didn't look like he was running fast but faster than everyone on the field. Great ball skills, as well. Michael Irvine said Deion would have been the greatest receiver of all time if he played the position full-time. Played NFL Football AND then jumped in a plane and played for the Braves?!?! - NOT of this planet!👽
I got a Rookie card of his with a Florida State Uni on… I thought this guy looks so cool with the ‘spear’ on the helmet and Florida State sounds like a cool school…this was 1989. They are still my favorite school today!
Imma just tell everyone this. The reason we don’t see corners like Deion anymore is because most players with this speed they convert them into receivers. Think about it how many receivers can you name that can run a 4.3 or even a 4.2.bow how many corners can you Ake run a 4.3 or 4.2? Exactly most run 4.4 or 4.5 unlike Deion he was pretty much a receiver his speed was all he needed to get to the ball first 💯.
I live in Oklahoma and they didn't show many FSU games the years Prime played. I feel robbed because I like college football more than the pros. It was the same with Emmit Smith at Florida. What a shame seeing that those schools get much national prime time coverage now.
Deion sanders was that dude every team. Only Washington and atl didnr get a ring when he played there.Other than that he was that super piece needed. Primetime was a showman
@@TheOlskool4ever yeah bru sanders only has two ring cowboys 49ers he did come the year following the ravens superbowl trying to push them back for two straight which didnt happen.
I didn't realize he was good back then bc I figured good players got offers from UM and if he had an offer from UM, he'd be insane to choose FSU. I stand by the logic. Bowden must have been offering something besides a scholarship.
Hell nah. Patrick Peterson, champ bailey, Charles Woodson. The only difference between them and prime, was they didn't have a bullhorn telling people how great they were every chance they got
best part of this was hearing ricky nattiel mentioned, if only because it's been a good 30 years since i've even thought of him. for the record, i couldn't place him, but knew that the name was familiar.

@Darryl Perry Yup, like stealing bases.
Definitely, you would think that the QB wouldnt even consider his side regardless where he is.
Yup, he played on his own island once he perfected his craft in the pros and ultimately shut down that side of the field he was playing on
That 4.21 speed allowed him to do that. He had an advantage no other DB had.
He once baited Rocket Ishmael when Dallas played the Raiders.

Bo was stronger and faster
@@tfFlyer-e9w Yes, Bo was a better athlete; however, Bo's career didn't last long enough to say that he was better than Deion.

yes in a time where white coaches did not let black kids be QBs in college

The playmaker was Michael Irvin

cagehfh excellent ball skills! jalen does it
DB’s definitely still make picks like that...
Yeah. Jalen is extremely athletic and good. No corner has been as quick twitch as Deion. Jalen honestly isn’t close. He just taller and has a hell of a broad jump.
Dion was and will always be the best. When your offense has to plan around him. That’s saying something
Deion Sanders was the best CB in his time.. Unbelievable talent..
The GOAT.....primetime in full affect..
1:11 That slight tug on Deion's jersey by #78 to let him know to cut back left for the block got him 7 additional yards. Smart football.
Yeah that was great
Good eyes
That was beautiful communication ❤❤
Even as a Canes fan I loved Deion! Definitely the 🐐 in the secondary!

Why today’s corners don’t study this man. They’re even scared to turn their heads in coverage.
True indeed...👍🏼👍🏼

The burst he showed @ 1:27 against Clemson Wow!!!!
He was like flash man ⚡😂
Amazing
Something many DB's don't do that is so simple - LOOK BACK FOR THE BALL. It is such a simple thing.
Bruh istg even mofos in NFL
That one play brought back all sorts of memories. Deion intercepts a pass from Vinny Testaverde to Michael Irvin.
