Disagree about Harrison... he was pretty much the leader and best player on what was the best or top championship defense for 5 years or so in the first Pats dynasty run. He completely changed the way teams threw the ball because some receiver corps couldn't go over the middle against him. You needed a huge hit to get your team fired up? Harrison would do it... you needed someone to force a fumble in a big spot, Harrison would do it... you needed a huge INT in a tough spot, in a tight game, Harrison would come up with it.
Granted... he didn't do that as much in San Diego where it was more about him just being a freakish intimidator. So to a point, I agree with you on the system.
That he's not in the HOF is a joke.
I think he deserves the HOF, I guess I just don’t see him as a game breaker. Maybe I need to revisit some of his highlight reel.
