    Aw come on! All due respect to Rod Woodson, a tremendous player and fun to watch even as a non-Steeler fan, but you should have shown the first play of that 1996 playoff game against the Pats, since it was his last with Pit. Rod, as he was prone to do, took a risky chance and got burned deep by a long Bledsoe to Glenn hook up. I'd love to see something like this about Ben Coates, since he also got his ring with that Ravens team, but I know better. Ben's lost to time outside New Englanders of a certain age.

He didn't have the foot speed of say a Deion so he had to take chances and it would cost him from time to time. Still, moving to Safety when he got to Baltimore was brilliant. He actually mirrored Ronnie Lott in that way. Only two guys I can think of that were All-Pros at both corner and safety.
