Rob Burnett's Hit On Akili Smith

[Ed_Reed20]

I know this is random but I was listening to Bruce Cunningham's show and he said he felt Burnett's hit on Akili was the greatest hit in Ravens history. I was wondering if anyone knew where I could find video of the hit?

Oh man, I don't know about Burnett's hit but I do know of Bart Scott's hammering of Big Ben: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XcwXBMDk9p0

that ws the perfect hit. nobody touched scott and ben didnt see it. A fumble would have been the icing on the cake!

Wow. Thanks a lot man. The picture says it all.

The greatest Ravens hit I've seen has to Jamie Sharper on Ike Hilliard. Sharper had to have at least 50lbs. on Ike and he threw all of his weight into him.

Bart's hit on Roethlisberger was sweet too.

That was a sweet hit but my favorite Ray hit was definitely the one on Burns on McAlister's return. Ironically, Burns is actually a special team coach for the Broncos now.

Best hit I saw in person? Bart Scott's hit on Ben Roethlisberger. I was watching it from the club level on the opposite side of the field, and I saw Bart run right around the tackle unblocked. I lowered my binoculars to watch the hit from a broader view and it was amazing.

I think Mendenhall might say the hit he took from Lewis last year was a good one.

That wasn't a hit, Ray was barely moving when Mendenhall slammed into him.

Man, I wish I watched the NFL and Ravens back then to watch guys like Burnett play...

those of you who did see him, what current NFL player do you think is very similar to Burnett?

Kind of like Simeon Rice. Kinda.
