Agreed. I can't believe Peter King really just said that Safety is the poor mans CB and that safeties are just CB's who can't play corner.

When they just asked if they're comfortable with Butkus has the highest inside LB and the only one to speak up was Peter King, subject turned in less than 15 seconds.

To be fair, as the conversation continued, they said that's how it was in the olden days. I read King's conversations all the time and he certainlly knows you can't make that statement about some of today's safeties.

I had a problem with that. Sabol brought up and instead of being a debate, it was just was Butkus did this and that. Arrggh!

When they do a new list in 2030, Ray will likely be the best MLB.

The sack at :45 seconds in terrifying, pure acceleration from standing up, wow.
