Did the 2000s Ravens have the best defense in NFL history?
🎧: sprtspod.fox/Ep.72
📺: sprtspod.fox/EddieGeorge
Yes
Yes, hands down, and that’s not just cuz I’m from Bmore. The Ravens were on the map based on defense.
I still can't believe Trent Dilfer was the starter anytime you got a Ham like that under center your defense got to be legit to win it all dude was trash
@@jasonjackson1541 😂😂😂😂😂
YES !!!!
“If I stared at you & you blinked, I knew I got ya. I stared over there at Eddie…..& he didn’t blink” - Ray Lewis
I thought ray Lewis said George was scared when they played? I could be wrong was long time ago
@clubshayshay890 How many people has that scam worked on? 🤦♂️🤣
@@hitking683 i doubt it. George was one of the few guys I remember actually running over Ray Lewis. Only 1 play but not something a "scared" player does.
@@tomdemay6147 I'm with you but I swear I remember hearing ray say that. Feels like a NFL Mandela effect lol
That’s joker never blinked
👁️👄👁️
That 2000 divisional game btwn the Ravens and Titans was a pure classic
True
Man, I was there. What a heartbreaker! I knew whoever won the game was going to win the superbowl!
The scary part is the Ravens offense only had 134 yards and only six first downs. But still won the game!!! That's how dominant the defense was.
Still scarred from that game.
I agree and disagree because that's a understatement.
You didn't like either team but watched it like you did.
I remember when Eddie retired I thought the titans will never have a running back that good. Then came chris Johnson and now Derrick Henry. Tennessee really knows how to pick a good RB

How you leave out the great bishop sankey
This is a great take fr you should be a sports podcaster
@kingfinesse8402 lmao bishop
Don’t forget they’re the same people that drafted Earl Campbell
That was the best football ever! I don’t mind a low scoring game as long as you see supreme effort by both offenses and defenses. You knew everyone on that field were grown man gladiators! Those games were special
I agree 100%. I’m From Nashville and they spoiled us quickly . We haven’t seen that footballs sense
Exactly how you said it!
Absolutely!
85 BEARS
@@anthonythompson3951 he said the the best football. Meaning the best era. You had Baltimore, Titans , Patriots, Steelers, Colts . All these teams either won the super bowl or went in a 4-5 year span
As an early 90’s baby, Eddie George will always be my favorite running back. I played countless hours with McNair (RIP) & George on Madden 2001 & NFL QB Club for the N64 & GameCube. Nothing like late 90’s early 2000s football.
QB club was a classic
That 2000 Baltimore defense was a scary sight🥶💯💯
That defense was downright terrifying
@@brandonknight7486 facts they had no weakness at all
@@buddyscarver7167 They beat the snot out of the Giants in the super bowl and the Giants only scored a touchdown from special teams
Bullies of Baltimore💪💯
The greatest defense of all time!!
Most brutal game I've ever seen was that 2000 Divisional Game between the Titans and Ravens.
Ravens and steelers two people got kocked out during that game
112 yards of offense and still won! As much as I like the high scoring today I miss that kind of football. Especially in the playoffs
You are right. It makes every yard worth so much more. But now a days, stats are everything. Theyll do anything to make the views and $$$ go up.
I would rather see a great defense dominate over a dominant offense.
@@shonda79able true but I don’t mind a shootout either especially if it ends on a defensive play.
Eddie George is one of the greatest running backs in NFL history. SALUTE from a die hard Baltimore Ravens fan since the franchise started.
If you didn’t see that playoff game in 01 between Ravens and titans, still gives me tingles to this day. Legends made that day for real, grown man game …. 5 star classic playoff game
It’s funny Eddie brings up that Cover 2 because I vividly remember the Ravens cornerback (McCallister) Teeing ⛳️ off on Eddie throughout the match.
I remember when Eddie George stiff armed ray Lewis I was like gahdamnnnnnnnn
Shannon's guests never disappoint. Just when i think his last guest was one of his best sit-downs, and i only plan to watch only a few minutes of Eddie George, & end up watching the whole thing.
🤣 right, eddie george just has that aura about him. True legend
You had no idea just how right you were. Katt Williams shut it down.
“RESPECT EVERY OPPONENT!!! TURN THE CAMERAS OFF. TURN THE CAMERAS OFF. F’K THE TITANS” 😂😂😂😂😂😂 -Brian Billick
Don’t forget Eddie George was a lot like Derrick Henry. Not a speed skill back but a big fast strong dominating RB. For him to say that about a defense is a massive statement.
As a Ravens fan I remember this rivalry. It was real between these two teams. It is nice to hear these guys relive that time.
I miss that era SOOOO MUCH
I never knew the ravens and titians rivalry was that deep till I watched the 30 for 30
Link??
@@blakelip3 ESPN+
Sweet. Season or title by chance?
30 for 30 Bullies of Baltimore
@@reggiebradley7612 thanks
I miss the early 2000s AFC Central - Baltimore, Pittsburgh, Jacksonville, and Tennessee. Every game was a battle. Even Cincy started doing something once Marvin went there.
Marvin was on that defensive staff with the Ravens
@Leonardo Braynen Obviously. But I'm not talking about that one year. But I was wrong. He got to Cincy the first year of the realignment so by the time they got decent, Jax and Tennessee were in the AFC South
@@johnnyfox8934 cool
Imagine if they kept the central as is now
I am truly thankful to have watched The Ravens at home during those wars they were epic. We were truly special.
Eddie George was a beast at running BACK...coach George now..
You heard him uncle shay the best and the baddest defense ever
That Ravens defensive line with Tony Siragusa and Sam Adams in the middle was so good!
R.I.P Goose
Let us get 10 shay look you crazy 😂
I remember that one playoff game vividly. Ray took Eddie's soul that day!
Eddie got him back 2003
I remember too! Ray was fearless that game. They put the camera on Eddie and you could literally see fear!
@@frank1485 I agree. That’s the game when Ray picked a pass that was meant for George, it was like Ray took it right out of Eddies hands. I was like: Yeah Eddie is done!
I keep hearing about this apparent BRUTAL Ravens defense from the 2000s. Might have to watch some film on them
The Ravens in 2000 didn't score a touchdown for the entire month of October, and still went 2-2 in that stretch, that defense could win games singlehandedly.
As Eddie said, it was a 4-3 Cover 2 "Beat it" which means they didn't change personnel very often, even in obvious passing situations. They had an absolutely monstrous set of Defensive Tackles in Sam Adams and Tony Siragusa, along with two excellent two-way defensive ends in Michael McCrary and Rob Burnett. That line sucked up all the blockers so that Ray Lewis could run sideline to sideline and chase down any run attempts while Peter Boulware was the main blitzer and pass rusher. Jamie Sharper, the weakside linebacker was excellent in coverage and backside run support who eventually went on to be the starting middle linebacker for the Texans after the Ravens. The secondary was just as good with Rookie Chris McCallister (who would go on to three pro bowls and two all pro's) and veteran Duane Starks, along with Hall of Famer Rod Woodson and SS Kim Herring.
Even with only two hall of famers (Woodson and Lewis) that defense was perfect example of when you have the exact right guys to fit a scheme you can be dominant.
I could listen to star athletes talk about their “glory days” forever.
Eddie George is the last of the true blue collar RB’s. I mean workhorse! Come on HOF
Nah....Adrian Peterson is probably the last one.
@@crharper25 nah Derrick Henry is
No comparison to Eddie George
Lynch
@@crharper25 facts
Bruh. When those two teams played back then people got in front of the tv and didn’t move. No one wanted to miss anything
Facts
That game was the reason I fell in love with football and the Ravens became my favorite team. It's a dream to see yall sit and talk about the game.
Man.....those were the days!!!!
Ray Lewis took on so many great RB’s. I wanna hear them talk about Ray vs The Bus!
The bus got his ring too b4 he left
I woulda have LOVED 2 be around when this interview was over…
2 great MEN right here…
Something about the old Ravens that the new Ravens need to take notes on. Those teams with Ray Lewis were indeed FEARED! You felt the pain every time they were on the field.
You literally can't talk Eddie George without including Ray Lewis and his constant stoppage of George
I miss that era. Those games were absolute blood baths…played on grass, dirty uniforms and everyone spent
Now this real football talk 🔥
Was 3 team rivalry back then. Ravens, Steelers, Titans. It was a rugged game every time they played one another
I remember being 10 years old crying my eyes out when the Ravens beat us that season boy was this great football back then!!!
I was 6 years old in Baltimore watching Ravens win
I'm a firm believer that if the Brady led Patriots had to play in the AFC north division with the Ray Lewis era Ravens, and the Big Ben led Steelers, that he might have 3 - 5 Lombardi trophies vs his 7. Having to face those teams twice a year would be hellish.
Probably less than that....because they were knocking qbs out of the game. & we all know how Brady is possibly the most non mobile qb ever. Those Ravens would have knocked him out in the 1st half.
Brady owned the Steelers but yea he did hav trouble with Baltimore at times
Steelers were no match against Brady. Ravens on the other hand.....
Yes. The AFC Least was a joke.
Respect!!!⬛🟪🟪🟪⬛
The love of the game that these two legends share is amazing. I could watch them just tell stories all day. This is like hanging out with two of your uncles.
That Tennessee vs Baltimore was the greatest game I ever seen. They went blow for blow
Great video. Two of the best defenses of all time but another one that a lot of people don't remember were the 1991 Eagles. I remember watching that team punish Warren Moon and the Houston Oilers
RIP to Steve McNair!!!!🙏😇
When the NFL was real, i miss these times
the nfl at its peak
Unc stay bringing the 🔥🔥🔥🔥. Great guest after guest!!!
I love that era of football! ❤😊
That was when football was great...
The early 2000’s was my peak NFL, NBA, NCAA football & basketball years. I was freaking glued to my Tv as a kid. Now I don’t watch college football, or basketball. I mostly keep up with the NBA on twitter and now just watch the NFL for the QB match up.
same here bra its watered down now
Ravens vs Titans is always a battle of attrition
Those days of Football where Defense put the Fear of God in the other team was truly Magical. It sucks my children wont ever see that. But boy was it special to watch. NOTHING like it
hopefully tonight the eagles show why defense still matters
EDDIE GEORGE PROLLY HAD THE BEST INTERVIEW
Shout out to EG for repping TSU 💯
I'm from Baltimore and Ravens defense lead by Ray Lewis was awesome!
Deadass it ain't been the same since he left imo. Having LJ at QB brings a similar feeling for me but not the same
@@jimmycraig2892 😂😂😂 what was you watching? The conversation was about Ray Lewis in the 2000s not Lamar Jackson!
@@darrellbarnes1171 never said it was about LJ i was saying ravens football aint been the same since ray left however LJ brings the closest amount of excitement from watching it since Ray left
@@jimmycraig2892 you're right 👍👍👍
Can’t lie that defense snatched his soul.
Bully Baltimore Ball
Facts
As an Eagles fan that 1991 defense holds a special place in my heart, that finished no.1 in all categories. But I have to be honest, that 2000 Raven's defense was the BEST I ever saw.
The titans had the number #1 rated defense that season in 2000!
@Deandre Ray The eye test will tell you that Ravens defense was more dominant, particularly in that playoff run despite the statistics. Just like in 86, that Giants defense finished second, but watching them stream roll through their opposition in the playoffs, then manhandling Denver in the Super Bowl, they clearly looked like the most dominant.
If Mac Nair lasted against the Ravens imagine what the Bears, Redskins or Giants of the 80s would have done to him, Ravens were ok but please the NFC in the 80s were in another dimension compare to the Ravens defense.
@はいたわごとを食べる I don't know how old you are but I grew up in the 80s. I remember all those defenses. I can't comment on the 85 Bears because I really didn't start watching football until 86. And I don't know what game u were watching but McNair took a beating that game. And they held George who was the NFL's leading rusher to under 50 yds, and the Titans as a team who led the NFL in rushing to under 100 yds. They literally were stacked at every position and didn't have a weakness. And if it wasn't for the Giants scoring on a kickoff return, they would have been the first team in NFL history to have a shutout in the Super Bowl. That sounds like better than just ok in my book.
@@chrisballard5743undefeated in the month of October in 2000 without scoring an offensive touchdown!
Ray Lewis had Eddie George heart
I'm a die hard Michigan fan.... my junior year of high school I became such a big Eddie George fan when he was at Ohio State. Actually felt bad for him when Michigan upset them his senior year when they were 11-0 going into that game. One of my all time favorite players
What you’re not a true Michigan fan
@@JohnWick-vb9pc except I am
@@Boss3Nate you cheered for Ohio state you’re a enemy of the maze and blue
@@JohnWick-vb9pc I didn't cheer for ohio state and never said I did...
@@Boss3Nate I feel what you were saying , I’m a FSU fan but Sean Taylor was one of my favorite players to watch
That was excellent. Two of the best to ever do it!
Best 6 minute clip of two athletes talking I have ever seen. Excellent
It was fun to see Eddie Goerge & Jeff Fisher coaching the east vs west shrine bowl. That was cool to see them at work with the young athletes .
This guy made me fall in love with the sport. Respect to the OG Eddie George !!
I remember that game. I was rooting for the Titans because of Steve McNair and Eddie George
RIP GOOSE
I gotta watch this episode, bet there are so many gems
I was waiting this part of the conversation
Best defense I’ve ever seen. Closest I saw was the 05 bears or legion of boom
The 2013 legion of boom were unrealistic! Dem boys had bad intentions every time they took the field
Eddie George is my favorite NFL Player of all time. Loved watching him play
Great Interview!!!!
This was awesome ❤
I was a Titans fan because of this bad dude right here!! 💯
It's the stories for me... legendary
First of Mr. Sharpe you are great interviewer and Eddie was a fantastic player to watch. It was such a great matchup
Mr. Eddie George my idol 🖤✊🏿
It’s going too be 11 start but it ain’t going to be 11 finishing 😂😂😂 The realest
I love it 😀 B-Ravens
Good story telling right here 💯💯

Eddie is THAT DUDE to this Day💪🏽 UNSTOPPABLE on that Madden Too🤦🏽♂️
I live here in Tennessee the rivalry was REAL!!!! Lol
People forget how tough & aggressive Eddie George was running...he was a tough relentless runner. Those battles were brutal....Titans had their own legit defense with Jevon Kearse at the helm then add on Air McNair & you have classic battles. Made me a certified Ravens supporter...
Much respect
I was at that AFC Championship game and it still hurt just a lil bit
Love both of these dudes!
Eddie and Ray use to go back and forth. Best RB vs LB match up ever. Pure smash mouth
If 2000 football still existed half these quarterbacks wouldn’t exist, including Mahomes
But mid qb like trent differ could kerry collins collins man stfu
Wrong mahomes would have been good then
@deandreray3500 but mahomes would leave the game with a few injuries
Miss this titans ravens games they was def a rival before the steelers
As a Ravens fan, I say Eddie 💯 and same fealing for the Titans. Win these 2 teams play it always ends bad for the loser.
Reality is nothing but respect.
Ravens vs Titans were some classic games. Eddie George vs Ray Lewis those were some violent but great games
Thanks Shannon for having Eddie George on your show.
i remember this time period very well...both were my 2 fav teams..ray was my fav player n steve mcnair was my fav QB (RIP)...needless to say i had to make a decision in time.
Eddie George is underatted imo.
Born in 83 and a DieHard Raider Fan. Those were my Most Memorable Years. That AFC central😢gave The Raiders Trouble but thats the Last of Brutal Defenes🤷🏽♂️IMO too
Back when football was football 🏈
The amount of concussions that would be in the nfl today if the 2000 ravens defense was still around….. man
When FOOTBALL was FOOTBALL !!!
I know it wasn’t safe but I miss this type of football
Now that was a rivalry game. Tenn/Bal. It’s so wild that players that weren’t even around even fill the fire of the rivalry. The feud still spilled over generations. And they’re not even in the same division.
Those titans and ravens defense early 99 to early 2000s defense was hard hitting games and Pittsburgh defense was like that too I believe the league change because those teams won with defense and the NFL don't life it because it was borning football so they made it to where it's mostly about offensive and high scoring
