Outro- The Fix by Aldous Young - Спорт
Harold “Towering Target” Carmichael was and still is a really underrated receiver. Glad he made the HoF
How is he underrated if he's in the Hall of Fame.........
You’re talking about him right now!
Ramses Barden should be on this..
so underrated he’s in the hall of fame 😳😳
@@gageselvy9299 Like most players in the HOF.
A video about heights of cornerbacks would be good
I’m enjoying this series!
Everson Walls was covering Carmichael in the outro, dude's single season cowboys INT record about to be broken
Or running backs
That would be the first position that's "more short than tall", is Richard Sherman the tallest CB ever?
@@DaDualityofMan lenny walls was 6’5 and brandon browner was 6’4
You missed Matt Jones, 6’6 WR on the jags, that was a first round pick in 2005. He ran a 4.3 and had a 39.5 vert. He had over 2000 career yards and 15 TDS.
He threw everything away for the love of cocaine. He could have been special.
They always forget my jags.
He played QB in college too
He wanted to be fat more than a player
He was a demon in madden 06
Brandon Banks is a 5’7’’ receiver who played three years with Washington and then went to the CFL where he’s become one of the best receivers in the league winning the 2019 MVP
i always wonder how other receivers would do in the CFL, Banks is perfect for the running start Slotbacks get
I forgot all about him!
God bless you and God bless anyone reading this! Hope you have an awesome day! Seek him while you can! Jesus is the way and the only way and he is returning soon! Whenever you think you aren't loved... Remember the ultimate sacrifice was for love! ENDING YOUR LIFE IS NEVER THE ANSWER!
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
John 3:16 KJV
The wages of sin is death (hell) but Jesus paid our debt on the cross, for our salvation! We must turn to God and away from our sinful ways, Confess Jesus is Lord and believe with our hearts that he was risen from the dead by God, and we must be baptized in the name of the Father, the Son and The Holy Spirit and live by His word and Commandments! Trust that God will help with the rest!
Seek God today before it's too late! Today could be your last day on earth!
Have a blessed day!

Dios te bendiga y Dios bendiga a Todos los que estan leyendo esto! Deseo que tengan un hermoso dia! Buscad a Dios mientras pueda ser hallado! Jesus es el camino y el unico camino y regresa pronto! Recuerda cuando te sientas que no eres amado... el mayor sacrificio se hizo por amor! EL SUICIDIO NUNCA ES LA RESPUESTA!
Porque de tal manera amó Dios al mundo, que ha dado a su Hijo unigénito, para que todo aquel que en él cree, no se pierda, mas tenga vida eterna.
S. Juan 3:16 RVR1960
La paga del pecado es muerte (infierno) pero Cristo pagó nuestra deuda en la cruz para nuestra salvacion! Debemos volvernos a Dios y apartarnos de nuestros caminos pecaminosos, confesar que Jesús es el Señor y creer con nuestro corazón que fue resucitado de entre los muertos por Dios, y debemos de ser bautizados en el nombre del Padre, del Hijo y del Espíritu Santo y vivir por Su palabra y mandamientos! Confia que Dios ayudara con el resto!
Busca a Dios, antes de que sea muy tarde! Hoy podria ser tu ultimo dia en la tierra!
Que tengas un hermoso dia!

A video on the heights of running backs would be interesting. Majority of them are around 5'10" but then you have guys like Derrick Henry and Darren Sproles
also eddie george
@@kingice2439 also MJD
And Eric Dickerson whose 6’3
As a Giants fan, I absolutely loved Brandon Jacobs, he was basically "prototype Derrick Henry", and he weighed as much as a DE.
laggerent blount...
I went to school with Jakeem “The Dream” Grant, there was no question that man was heading to the NFL. He used his size in the slot to disappear and is part of the reason Patrick Mahomes developed his crazy improv skills and short pass accuracy
Jakeem has been one of my favorite players since before he was even drafted, when I saw him take a running jump onto a six-foot platform. I hope he still has a couple good years left.
There are about 300 times more American men who are under 5'8" than who are at least 6'6". The short guys overpower the tall guys on sheer numbers. The fact that it is so close, shows what an advantage height is.
Baseball pitchers and basketball players tend to be tall, in football, hockey, and in the non-pitching element of baseball, height is much less important.
Harold Carmichael would be an absolute red zone nightmare in today's game.. Let alone a down feild threat
I wonder how fast he was. Its so hard to tell with tall guys because their legs and strides are so long.
I remember when the Steeler drafted Weegie Thompson who was around 6’6”. They would loft balls up to him even when he was covered and hope he could out-rebound the defender. He certainly wasn’t dominant, but serviceable for a 4th rounder.
This man has come a long way I love the amount of uploads 👌 keep up the good work 👍
John Madden and Vin Scully were the voices of my childhood. Thanks for the memories John. And Vin, pls take your time and and stick around for a while longer. You may not be calling games anymore but it’s great to see and hear you around from time to time. Thank you for the memories, gentlemen.
Highest winning percentage in the LAST 90 YEARS. Above Shula. Above Lombardi. Only one guy above and it was 100 years ago.
Strong argument as being most popular, by _both_ players and fans.
So enigmatic that they named a football game after him.
Was so beloved that people were interested in where he ate in cities before games. Or in the booth. Made Thanksgiving great again.
Created awards in his name and NOBODY argued his choices. Talk about a man that could do not wrong.
Made heroes and folk legends of less famous players just for making one historic play - with or without their helmet missing !
10:23 ❤🙏 Rip John Madden. Thank for this and for the amazing videos this year. Happy New Year KTO!!
Great video KTO, happy new year my friend.
Honestly just do this type of video for every position, I love watching these
Hi been watching you for about 4 years just wanted to say congratulations on your rise in popularity!
5:24 to add on to your 3rd point about tall guys normally playing TE or lineman, I think that's mainly a coaching thing. When a 6'5+ highschool player says he's a receiver, 90% of coaches tell them to bulk up and play TE. As someone who was 6'5 and 185 lbs my senior year of highschool (bulked up from 160 to 185 at my coach's request), I hated being slotted in as a blocker at TE instead of lining up on the outside as a primary receiving target and ended up quitting the team cause of that. The transition from highschool football to pickup games in college was super fun tho 😅
Hey KTO, this is an awesome video, I was wondering if you could do this but with running backs, that would be awesome!
I agree!
Shorter RBs (under 6’0’)
Emmitt
Barry
Gore
Payton
C. Martin
LT
Bettis
Dorsett
Faulk
Taller RBs (6’0’ or above)
Peterson
Dickerson
Jim Brown
Marcus Allen
Franco
Edge
I’d love to see these end of the spectrum comparisons type videos of position play, like RBs comparing speed vs Power
Or QBs cannon vs precision
Imagine Lebron James at WR or TE if he went the football route instead of basketball. The man would've been a beast!
He too soft for the NFL
People overrate how good he actually would have been
@@PM-im8nq he seems softer because he flops because he knows he’ll get the calls
Joe Buck be like
“James. James. James. James. Down to the 25”
Softer than 10 ply toilet paper, wouldn’t last a week
happy new years thanks for the post 🙏
Great video. Enjoyed this!
Solid video bro! Enjoyed it!
A KTO upload on NYE puts a smile on my face.
Cant wait for this video 🔥🔥
Yesssirr I knew this video would POP off bro🔥 it’s just a great idea
DJ what are u doin here
Great video, dude. I think you’re on to something with videos grading players production vs. physical attributes.
I love your content bro, always click on with a new vid
Really cool to see Harold Carmichael getting some love. He was a BEAST. Hie numbers were amazing for that era.
Overlooking all of the main topic, i highly appreciate you putting that john madden call at the end. RIP A LEGEND FOREVEERRRR
Megatron was such a beast because he had that perfect blend of size and speed combined with excellent hands.
Jakeem Grant is one of my favorite Madden pickups in Fanchise mode. put him returning kicks for the first season and return them all to be the leader in kick return yards for some great XP for the next season and then becomes a decent WR for slants/deep routes
KTO I love your vids. Keep up the good work.
THANK you for showing 24 Everson Walls being beat on that outtro Carmichael touchdown, ha ha. Everson was a nice guy, a great guy, but I watched every play he made and he was beat over and over and over and over. That positioned him perfectly to intercept underthrown balls, more common than you think, as QB is hit or pressured. Most people only saw him on weekly highlights and thought he was great. Unfortunately he was beat more than any DB I've ever seen. BTW, he was on the cover of Sports Illustrated - being beat by Dwight Clark making "The Catch".
Sooo basically trevon diggs
Karsten Can we get an Outro Compilation? I love your beat drop outros !
Great info, Thanks! I never heard of Harold Carmichael, dude was a beast!
Running backs next? Love this series
I sometimes forget how young you are KTO, I've been playing Madden since '94, but the 2004 Vick cover... Wooooo, hell of a addition to the series.
i got to talk to Carmichael a few years ago at an eagles game. such a great dude who absolutely loved football. he showed off his NFC champ ring too. the definition of one of a kind.
How could you not talk about Steve Smith Sr? Literally one of the greatest short receivers of all time
Good point. But he's not quite yet eligible for HOF, so the other 5'9" star who is in the Hall was featured in the video.
I agree with you that he deserves mention. His numbers crush the other 5'9er Tommy McDonald. Almost double the yards!!
He was on the ballot this year......
He will be next time around.
@@Bill_Woo All of the other 5 foot 9ers and under mentioned in this video are not in the hall either so what's your point? 🤷
@@doctorfresh3856 Okay your royal highness, name those other five-nine receivers in the video. We're all waiting. Come on, name just ONE. No? I thought so. So why are you - or anyone else - having to endure someone's whiny little voice?
What is that word for someone who just voyages through the internet seeking something to criticize, just for the sick satisfaction of the endorphin rush from telling others they are wrong, when in reality they are just pathetically wrong? I'm sorry, I'm just having trouble coming up with the word. Sorry I'm so mentally slow - can you come to the rescue?
A video about shortest and tallest offensive/defensive lineman would be dope. I was a 5'9 Guard in d1 (not anymore, injuries) and am curious if there's ever been any successful short but bulky guys in NFL history.
Goddamn bro that's insane
Is that Blaze ey Fear ey???
Gayyyy takeover
Mike Tolbert
It was the Cowboy's Irvin and Harper duo that sent the average height up in the 90s. They dominated even the best corners and safeties throughout most of the decade.
Madden 04 is my all time favorite madden game. Owner mode was first introduced and that soundtrack is so great.
I have been discussing this topic for years. I played corner when I was young and | was 5"9. I think receiver size is a response to corner size. Corner size is a response to receiver size in return. Both follow trends in football that last years. Smart coaches are the reason it happens. Because of this players cannot be compared from different eras. This applies to all positions in team sports really. Often teams that are not good in one era will adapt first and start trends in the following era. Shifty receivers will do well in an era where big corners started to work against big receivers. Understand? It is a never ending cycle that is the basis for successful strategic coaching like Belichick pulled off.
This was a really good video.
Carmichael was unstoppable. As you've said, receivers could be hit a lot more in that era, but Carmichael had such arm length that he could often avoid contact at a distance that still afforded him separation. Of course, the 'throw high' strategy was huge as well. Truly a great NFL player.
whatever you do, its awesome. plaese keep going.
That Carmichael dude looks like a beast👀 Thanks for the video KTO!
I honestly feel like extreme height or lack of height both have it's strengths and limitations where as a lot of players 6'1-6'3" have the best chance of succeeding/having the best of both PS Grant was traded when David Montgomery went down so Khalil Herbert didn't have to return kicks anymore to fill in at RB
Good video 🔥
Solid vid, would've liked for the brief Madden tribute alone. He said it best at Summerall's funeral, ironically, "This is the third goodbye. It's the toughest."
I really like the vid but I feel like it should had been at 6’5 because there is a WHOLE BUNCH of great receivers from Calvin Johnson, malcom Floyd, Vincent Jackson, mike evans, placxico burress tall receivers got game. Would had been a bit more of a compelling vid but great work nonetheless. Your work is awesome 🙌🏾🙌🏾
I was thinking the exact same thing
Great video, that Carmichael is amazing. I don’t think I’ve ever heard of him and I’m 34. Also madden yes totally agree that’s one of the things that drew me to football I remember playing Madden 98 on Super Nintendo then 64 they had actual dialogue with Sumeral, then PlayStation with madden 03 and yes 04 was mike Vick on the cover great version of madden, first time you had training camp drills in the preseason to increase player attributes. Sooooooo much wow.
Damn people that are the same height as me (5’6,5’7) are able to perform. Short kings rise up. rip John madden as well. Great vid!
Very interesting subject
I lovvvvve drafting/signing tall recievers in videogames. 6'4, preferably 6'5+ WRs & TEs 😍 honestly i get excited for acquiring tall dudes for every position lol
I went to LSU when Trindon Holliday was there. The guy was great. I loved to watch him next to Herman Johnson at LSU.
Awesome video
without a doubt a unicorn, amazing someone that tall and skinny wasnt plagued with injuries
You deserve more subs you are a quality UA-camr and as an NFL fan easily the second best sports channel next to urinatingtree
Ifeanyi Momah was 6’7 and came into the NFL as an UDFA WR. Bounced on and off rosters for three seasons (Eagles, Browns & Lions) before converting to TE with the Cardinals.
Only 96 yards and 3 receptions in his career.
Now do tallest and shortest DB'S please. Thank you
Brandon browner for tallest
I remember watching a lot of these guys. Holiday like other talented undersized WRs all stayed because of punt/kick return abilities.
Interesting topic. Not the same old same old... Some SB style of content. Like it.
Matt jones was 6'6" for the jaguars, but he was a converted qb who never really panned out.
I remember Matt Jones made waves when he ran a 4.37 in the 40 yard dash at the combine. Converted QB or not, hard to not to take a chance on a guy like that; you can teach a guy to run routes and catch passes, but not how to be tall and fast.
That situation in Jacksonville was pretty interesting for going against multiple stereotypes; the fast, athletic QB moved to WR was a white guy, while all three QBs on the roster were black guys who were not particularly athletic at all.
Best new years gift ever
Had me exited in the kitchen at midnight heating up pizza because this video came across my timeline. This one was heat 🔥
The legendary Kto
Dude the Madden bit at the end got me. You could probably do an entire series of videos just on him.
I hope he makes a video about Tight ends and running backs.
It would be amazing if there was a 6’2 185 speedy RB.
Like a track runner transitioning into football.
Madden 04 was my first sports game as well. RIP legend
A TE video like this would be cool. HOFer Sharp is actually “too small” to be a TE but don’t tell him that.
Agudois is currently killing it in the cfl before getting injured and looked to be a future star in winnipeg
Look @KTO I'm sure you have hundreds of ideas on football videos, but one idea I would really love to see is the top players to come out of the "U" in no way am I a fan of Miami football, but Miami was a powerhouse in the 90's and early 2000's.... Being a Texans fan, Andre Johnson was my favorite of course, but Ed Reed and Sean Taylor were beast also.... I think that would be an badass video to make
Could you possibly do a video on the difference in heights of offensive and defensive lineman like possibly those that are 6’7 or taller and those that are under 6’4
Kris Durham was a guy I was trying to remember for years lol, because I remember watching a Lions game once and seeing Kris Durham and Megatron and I was just thinking about how crazy it was that their receivers were so huge.
Good video man, wonder how long it will take for the NFL to piggy back off this video like they did with the same video you did for tall/short QB's.
I knew Carmichael would be on this video and as an Eagles' fan I already knew of him, but man I didn't know how special and unique he was!! An absoulte legend!!
As someone’s who’s 5’5… being put into slot WR was the best feeling ever after playing almost the entirety as a third down/back up HB …
R.I.P. John Madden, I still play Madden 04 to this day! My personal favorite football game ever. Peace and love y'all 🤟
If you can will you make a video on the UDFA from the 2020 draft
Glad you put the tribute to John Madden at the end. RIP.
Great vid. Small input. Deonte Harris is now Deonte Harty 😉. Changed his name just recently.
A guy by the name Mack Heron played for the Pats in mid 70's. He was 5 5.
Thank you for the Madden tribute.
Carmichael is insane from this clips. Also to me Kyle Pitts is basically a receiver and could fit this vid. I mean the dude has the look of one and can lineup outside. Also Jakeem Grant is a beast man! Super underrated
I would love a video about Bill Groman, I feel like he is an underrated receiver with a really interesting story.
A video about the shortest and tallest linemen would be cool.
I never played football the only sport I ever was interested in was Swim team but I fell in love with the game madden and that lead to me watching football so thank you John Madden for getting me into football.
Nice, unexpected tribute to John Madden. Thank you for that!
Its Davante, not Devante! #GoPackGo. Good video as always KTO. Best NFL content creator there is
I like these short vs tall videos
Grant was a really awesome player in Miami, his hands just became a liability in what was supposed to be a stacked WR room. He'd catch everything one week and drop everything the next.
As a Miami fan I loved jakeem grant during his time in Miami and still rout for him whenever I see him
The thing about tall and big receivers is that the defense could always find a big and tall defender to cover them, so unless they got super speed as well, there's just not much to them. Finding a defender that's agile and shifty enough to keep up with a tiny speedster is hard, because they'd be one-trick ponies on that defense.
Tight ends will be fun to do next.
As a Raider fan, thank you for the John Madden shout out.
6'6 foot recivers might not be good but 6'5 recivers include mike evans, Megatron, brondon Marshall, Vincent Jackson and Plaxico Burress
Weights in running backs eg someone like mostert vs lynch or christian okoye.
Interesting that Jacoby Ford is also in that 100m graphic, he played wr for the raiders
In 1980, the Atlanta Falcons had a 5-4 receiver who played on special teams. His name was Reggie Smith
