Jevon Kearse went to the same high school as my brother's and I . My older brother was in the same graduating class . Both are about 6 year's older than me . While he was playing for UF and then going into the NFL he always made it a point to come to our school at least twice a year and talk with us and hang out . One of the nicest guy's I've ever met . Also one of the largest human beings I've ever met , they did NOT call him the freak for nothing .
I really don’t know how to feel about Dan Reeves. He held a grudge against John Elway and Mike Shanahan in 1998 because he felt that they were the ones who got him fired in Denver and then he starts safety Eugene Robinson in the Super Bowl a day after Eugene got arrested for soliciting an undercover police officer. I guess the later parts of Dan’s coaching career are what I’m bothered by and probably why he’s not in the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
@What about Rob? Yeah but as a head coach in the NFL he doesn’t have a Super Bowl ring. He has one as a player and two as an assistant coach but not a head coach and sadly we in sports media are very critical when it comes to judging legacies. We want winners to paraphrase Mike Singeltary.
As a head coach Dan Reeves was always crying about something. Yes he has ring's but not as a head coach. As far as this story goes he must have been really good friends with the people that took that sack away because there is no way in hell that was a running play .
Kearse was so awesome the first few years. Still solid in Philly, but then never the same after the injury. He’s in my top tier of “holy crap” players; at his peak, I’ve got him in that LT/Bo/Deion/Barry tier.
Anyone can have one good game or season. Wasn't Lamar Jackson the next big thing? What happened? Oh, right, the opponents figured him out. Same with Kearse. He peaked in his rookie year and went downhill ever since. Kearse is a joke compared to LT, Deion, Barry, etc. and it's disrespectful to the true greats to compare them.
Don't forget Aldon Smith. 14 sacks his rookie season, defensive rookie of the year and also 2nd in defensive player of the year voting behind Von Miller. Funny thing about him is he didn't even start for that 49ers team and saw his first action in week 4.
You can usually tell the play call by looking at the offensive line. On this guy, the center and right guard pulled to the left side of the line. The LT, LG, and RT were in a pass set. That's a screen pass.
I think a case can be made for Ronnie Lott in 1981. He had 7 INT's and 3 TD's. I think Taylor won all the defensive accolades due to east coast bias and the 49ers weren't a dynasty yet.
Another awesome video--Great research and reporting. And congratulations on Ultra Game partnership. That's great. Good for you. I have a feeling many more companies will be wanting to be a part of the JaguarGator9 train!
I saw my doctor yesterday. She prescribed 20 mg of Context. She said: Take 20 mg of Context audibly every morning. Thank you for the daily dose of what I need JG9!
In every sport, the truly great players are really never rookies. They already know what to do when they step out on the field, or on the court, or on the ice. They just know.
Kearse peaked in his rookie season. "The Freak" went to 3 Pro Bowls his first 3 seasons and never came close to earning anything else the rest of his career. He's a one-hit wonder and it's actually pretty disrespectful of the uploader to compare him to LT, who was an absolute menace from ages 22-31.
@@encycl07pedia- I agree in the case of Jevon Kearse. A lot of athletes in a lot of the team sports have had the same history as Jevon. But my first statement is still accurate.
Speaking of the Falcons, they drafted a DE in the first round in '99 as well, Patrick Kearney. After 2 seasons Kearse had 26 sacks to Kearney's 5. Yet Kearney would have 8.5 more career sacks, with both playing until '09.
Yeah, 3 & 4 wideout sets, along with the empty backfield formation, were common from 1996-2000 (1995 Steelers made it to Super Bowl XXX going naked backfield, so...copycat time!). After the Ravens beat the Giants in Super Bowl 35 however, offenses once again became more interested in max protection of the QB.
@@billyhill7630 I love fullbacks. I do think they'll make a return someday, who knows, maybe as a feature back like John Riggins was. The NFL is totally cyclical: for awhile there it looked like the tight end 2as being deemphasized, and these days that position is in good shape.
@@gluserty true. The whole spread the field mentality was going league wide. I like variety. Love titans derrick henry and power football, also love situational football like patriots throwing only 3 times in high winds and winning. I remember the eagles lions snow bowl game and both teams came out throwing the ball. It took a half before they figured out they couldn't when it should have been obvious pregame.
@@billyhill7630 I agree, every game has a story to tell, and I like to view as many different ones as possible. When I played Ps2 Madden, my offense was Run 'n' Gun with a Full House package included, so I definitely like different styles.
OJG9 should do a Dumb Decisions video on the Falcons giving Hampton another carry after reaching 1000 yards. I'm sorry, WHAT?!?! Also, that is one huge trophy at 1:05.
When you said two people stepped in and was the best defensive player in the league as a rookie, I thought immediately Lawrence Taylor and Dick Butkis. But yeah, Kearse also
That's so dumb. Set passing plays can turn into desperate running plays and set running plays can turn into desperate passing plays. If the QB is tackled for a loss it should be a sack.
Those falcons and Titan helmets… a video touching on the “1 shell rule” would be fun now that they have changed it. The Patriots, eagles, etc can now do awesome throwbacks
The rule was established in 2013 to improve player safety, requiring teams to have only one helmet color so players would practice and play in the same helmet. While teams will now be allowed a second set of helmets, they must be the same make, model and size as the player's primary helmet.Jun 24, 2021
@@TommyVinMI The NFL never did care about player safety, which is why the season is 17 games long now. They only were forced to pretend to care because of the concussion issue becoming too big to ignore. And even then, the helmet rule was stupid. What, they couldn't make extra helmets that were safe? Why can the NFL suddenly do it now?
My favorite player and I’m so happy my dad named me after him just 2 years after this record. Even though I never find anything with my name on it spelled right it’s awesome to know that I’m named after one of the best players in my teams entire history
I never knew they took that a sack off of Kearse’s stats. Real rookie record should’ve been at 15.5. P.S. I’m a Raiders fan and my favorite all time player is between Charles Woodson and Tim Brown
I've been watching the videos for a while now and just realized I was subbed to the channel but now I am, falcons even if lost all hope for them a while ago
Great video! My team: Niners all the way. I was born a few years after their last Super Bowl win and experienced a lot of heartbreak as a fan, but it would be a real treat to see them finally hoist the Lombardi trophy again all these years later 🏈
Is it possible that what Reeves was arguing is because the center muffed the snap-leaving it high and forcing the QB to the right just to get possession-that the QB was turned into a runner, and thus when tackled it needed to be called as a run of negative yards instead of a QB sack?
This brings up an interesting idea: is there a rule for stats recording for a botched snap like this but you can't tell if it was going to be a run or pass. Bonus idea: what if the call was an RPO, PRO, or RSO? What do you record there?
The Freak!!!! This dude was a Monster... injuries slowed him down but make no mistake about it this dude was the Don of defense in his prime..that record should have stood against the falcons..Reeves was wild for that
If I’m not mistaken Reggie White played college football at Tennessee, then in the USFL for the Memphis Showboats Florida and Tennessee was once a legit SEC rivalry game… the 90s… you had to be there… Kinda fitting that Kearse, playing for a pro football team in Tennessee, ended up breaking Reggie White’s NFL rookie sack record
It wasn't much of a rivalry game with Peyton losing every time. Jerk could win every other game but not the Gators. Then Tee Martin comes in and suddenly Tennessee can beat not only UF but my Seminoles, too. Stupid Marcus Outzen.
@Uncle Jake's Raider's Videos 5one of the most amazing plays that I've ever witnessed. The fascinating thing was Samari Rolle was super fast and giving chase and wasn't gaining ground.Kearse actually ran both of them down and tackled both of them.

@Uncle Jake's Raiders Videos I've searched several times but I cannot find an actual highlight of that play. If you have a link to it, it would be super awesome if you could post it because I'd love the watch that all over again. 🙏🏾🤞🏾
@@OriginalOldSkoolFunkI thought maybe I made that up because I found no footage but then I found a quick quick highlight in a video. Not sure why people don't appreciate it more but go to the 0:45 mark on the link below 👇 ua-cam.com/video/gS20Dn35NR8/v-deo.html
The biggest thing I remember about the 99 Titans was Eddie George running up and down the RCA dome against my Colts in the divisional round of the playoffs.
I didn't know about this but I know that Don Shula argued against Mercury Morris getting a 5 yard loss on a play so he would have 1000 yards on the season and Morris and Csonka would be the first pair of RBs to have 1000 yards in the same season.
Yeah, and, he rewarded this act of, "courage," by getting himself arrested, this guy, truly, was, such an, ungrateful, loser, that it, isn't, even funny, period.
Who knows, but, Michael Strahan, set the season record, on a, "sack," of, Brett Favre, that wouldn't have been a, sack, in, Touch Football, and, apparently, the, NFL, had no problems, with, that, who knows what they, were, actually, thinking.
@@matthewdaley746 It's still a sack if the QB trips on the bootleg and is touched down, the same as a TD is still a TD whether it's a 99-yard pass or a QB sneak.
I thought it was obvious that Reeves didn't want the record being set against his team and contacted the NFL out of sheer spite. But maybe that's just me.
@@cecilshackelford8861 I was thinking current NFL players, not historical ones. Also, I used to be a Washington fan, so my grasp on Bears history is a little bit less firm than it would be on Washington's. That said, of Bears players from the past, Sweetness is the first one who comes to mind for me as a favorite.
This unofficial Official Jaguar Gator 9 historian will remind everyone you made videos about the following: 1. Cardinals Receiver Bobby Joe Conrad thinking he didn’t break a record, only to have it happen almost 30 years later that he did. 2. Dan Reeves’ bizarre decision when the Falcons landed in Miami for Super Bowl 33.
Dan Reeves was nothing but a whiny crybaby he proved that back at the end of the 1993 season where he complained about the NFL adding the 2 pt conversion as a rule. Yet he does it again to the NFL stats people saying that wasn't a pass play it was a run play. Jeff Fisher didn't make it any better with his statement he just supported a crybaby just out of respect for him. I am glad that Kearse broke the record eventually because if he didn't than all hell would have broken loose and crybaby Dan would have been known as the Scrooge of the NFL.
I always wished that would happen to Emmitt Smith when he broke Payton's record and had a career ending injury on thee play where he lost 6 yards. And yes, I hate Emmitt Smith and every Cowboy from their Super Bowl teams of the 90's that much. Bills fan....oh and Bruce Smith is the greatest defender of all time. Spent 70 percent of his career playing right end in a 3-4 and still racked up sacks.
@@matthewdaley746 I agree but those Cowboys Super Bowl losses broke me. Smith and Irvin and their incessant show boating and trash talking and the turnovers. That with the absolute beat downs they put on us just makes me hate them so much.
@@PhilP8980 cocky irvin's fumble in nfc title game vs. niners directly kyboshed boys three peat bid. i loved it. at least barry wanted no part of breaking walter's record. emmitt was washed up as a card. only went there to stick it to jerrah. and just held on to hog the rushing record.
This video was sponsored by Gator goggles. Kearse was good, but he wasn't on Lawrence Taylor's level, not by a long shot. Kearse was a one-hit wonder. It was hard for NFL teams to adapt to him in his rookie year, but he quickly fell off the map afterwards (his output went down year after year, all 3 Pro Bowls were in his first 3 years). He was never considered for DPoY after his rookie season, either. Similar one-hit wonders are Lamar Jackson, RG3, Peyton Hillis, Steve Emtman, Ickey Woods, etc.
@@OfficialJaguarGator9 You have at least a decade of hindsight and more than 1 season of (NFL) data. They didn't. And you don't bring up the comparison once or twice; you bring it up throughout the video, including the conclusion that "many would remember this Titan as the greatest defensive rookie in NFL history." I highly doubt that's a thing even for Titans fans, or if anyone thinks very much about the best rookie players. I remember thinking Kearse was going to be great in the NFL, too. He was "The Freak"... quite briefly. He quickly faded into obscurity and even when I heard his name on highlights I wondered why nobody was talking about him when his name was brought up on NFL Primetime... It's because he was never that remarkable afterwards. LT and Barry Sanders were in the NFL lexicon long after they passed their prime and retired. Kearse was just an "Oh, yeah. He was good," if people even remember him. I mean in 2022 I could call Ickey Woods, a man known more for a celebration than rushing, the next Walter Payton just based on his rookie season. I'd understandably catch a lot of flak.
Did some googling, found something called the NFL guide for statisticians. Which makes it clear, for there to be a sack, there has to be an apparent attempt to pass. On the play in question, there was not. Botched snap, QB chases the football down, and is tackled by Kearse as soon as he collects it. Never had a chance to look downfield. So not a sack, whether or not it had been intended as a passing play. www.nflgsis.com/gsis/documentation/stadiumguides/guide_for_statisticians.pdf

And Titans blew them out twice,it was crazy

I can't think of a favorite player off the top of my head though.
@David Lim I am still kicking myself for not betting on Hester returning the opening kickoff of the Super Bowl for a score 😭😭😭
@David Lim Cross of Butkus and Ditka?
I hope you are joking. "Sweetness" Walter Payton all the way.
@@CTubeMan Ditkus.
@@cecilshackelford8861 I was thinking current NFL players, not historical ones. Also, I used to be a Washington fan, so my grasp on Bears history is a little bit less firm than it would be on Washington's.
That said, of Bears players from the past, Sweetness is the first one who comes to mind for me as a favorite.
This unofficial Official Jaguar Gator 9 historian will remind everyone you made videos about the following:
1. Cardinals Receiver Bobby Joe Conrad thinking he didn’t break a record, only to have it happen almost 30 years later that he did.
2. Dan Reeves’ bizarre decision when the Falcons landed in Miami for Super Bowl 33.

Dan Reeves was nothing but a whiny crybaby he proved that back at the end of the 1993 season where he complained about the NFL adding the 2 pt conversion as a rule. Yet he does it again to the NFL stats people saying that wasn't a pass play it was a run play. Jeff Fisher didn't make it any better with his statement he just supported a crybaby just out of respect for him. I am glad that Kearse broke the record eventually because if he didn't than all hell would have broken loose and crybaby Dan would have been known as the Scrooge of the NFL.
Houston should get back the Oilers name. The Titans owner will not do it. May they forever be cursed. Zero Super Bowl Championships and counting.
I always wished that would happen to Emmitt Smith when he broke Payton's record and had a career ending injury on thee play where he lost 6 yards. And yes, I hate Emmitt Smith and every Cowboy from their Super Bowl teams of the 90's that much. Bills fan....oh and Bruce Smith is the greatest defender of all time. Spent 70 percent of his career playing right end in a 3-4 and still racked up sacks.
Direct your hatred towards the, many, HOFers, that allowed the Giants to hoodwink them in the, only, SB, that, was, actually, winnable.
@@matthewdaley746 I agree but those Cowboys Super Bowl losses broke me. Smith and Irvin and their incessant show boating and trash talking and the turnovers. That with the absolute beat downs they put on us just makes me hate them so much.
@@PhilP8980 cocky irvin's fumble in nfc title game vs. niners directly kyboshed boys three peat bid. i loved it. at least barry wanted no part of breaking walter's record. emmitt was washed up as a card. only went there to stick it to jerrah. and just held on to hog the rushing record.
@@PhilP8980 Karma, evened, matters, exorbitantly.
@stevenbauer4799 Everything collapsed in Philadelphia.
So, Dan Reeves was the first "Karen" ????

Kearse was good, but he wasn't on Lawrence Taylor's level, not by a long shot. Kearse was a one-hit wonder. It was hard for NFL teams to adapt to him in his rookie year, but he quickly fell off the map afterwards (his output went down year after year, all 3 Pro Bowls were in his first 3 years). He was never considered for DPoY after his rookie season, either. Similar one-hit wonders are Lamar Jackson, RG3, Peyton Hillis, Steve Emtman, Ickey Woods, etc.
I was just talking about his rookie season, not his entire career. In 1999, he routinely drew comparisons, even from Dan Reeves himself, to LT
@@OfficialJaguarGator9 You have at least a decade of hindsight and more than 1 season of (NFL) data. They didn't. And you don't bring up the comparison once or twice; you bring it up throughout the video, including the conclusion that "many would remember this Titan as the greatest defensive rookie in NFL history." I highly doubt that's a thing even for Titans fans, or if anyone thinks very much about the best rookie players.
I remember thinking Kearse was going to be great in the NFL, too. He was "The Freak"... quite briefly. He quickly faded into obscurity and even when I heard his name on highlights I wondered why nobody was talking about him when his name was brought up on NFL Primetime... It's because he was never that remarkable afterwards. LT and Barry Sanders were in the NFL lexicon long after they passed their prime and retired. Kearse was just an "Oh, yeah. He was good," if people even remember him.
I mean in 2022 I could call Ickey Woods, a man known more for a celebration than rushing, the next Walter Payton just based on his rookie season. I'd understandably catch a lot of flak.
Onward and upward, Amigo! #dallascowboys
Kind of a strange hill for Reeves to die on, but whatever.
Also - Patriots fan all the way, bay bay!
It happens all the time. Stats get messed up and are corrected later in the week.
Go Raiders!
Patriots are my team
The freak
Do Eddie George!!
Did some googling, found something called the NFL guide for statisticians. Which makes it clear, for there to be a sack, there has to be an apparent attempt to pass.
On the play in question, there was not. Botched snap, QB chases the football down, and is tackled by Kearse as soon as he collects it. Never had a chance to look downfield. So not a sack, whether or not it had been intended as a passing play.
