Read the book “they call me assassin”, Tatum went to the hospital the night he injured stingily, and apologized. his family cooperated it. They said he cried like a baby.
Jack Tatum was a hard hitter that played just inside the rules. Watch his collision with Earl Campbell at the goal line. Looked like two train engines colliding in one of those Old West promos. A hard hitter, but I would not put him on this list.
This dirty play just hurts the game and the players.Nothing wrong with a good hard tackel. Trying to take someones knees out and helment to helment is not football it should be a crime.
The fact that they showed clips from Burifect’s high school and college days just shows how much of a liability he truly is. Obviously, the guy only knows how to be dirty.
I live in AZ and saw his act at ASU. Not only was he a menace on the field, but the school had to deal with three settlements..one for him punching and breaking a students jaw in a pickup game of basketball, one for punching a girl in a nightclub because she slapped him for grabbing her ass, another for injuring yet another student in a on campus fight. He was part of the Dennis Erickson crime wave and because of his reputation no NFL team would touch him except the bengals. Dude is said to be bi polar but doesn’t take his meds because they made him gain weight and become passive.
Got a laugh when it was said Bill Romanoski got into a fight with his own teammate. But, the screenshot was him grabbing Kevin Nash’s jersey in the Longest Yard.
I have two points to make. 1, JackTatum's hit on Darryl Stingley was in a meaningless preseason game. 2, You forgot Albert Haynesworth. He was a dirty player.
@@ovoxo7396 honestly, that hit says more about the NFL, the players union, and our government than the guy who hit him. Todd Bertuzzi should be rotting in jail but instead the NHL let him play again...
My high school teacher was an NFL offensive lineman for the Los Angeles Raiders in the 1980’s. He was first team all pro and the stories Mr. Bruce Edward Davis would share of the things he and other lineman used to do are crazy.
Nick DiPaolo and Patrice O'Neal did a bit about "guys" who don't understand football, Greger. Go watch your magic the gathering tournaments and e-sports.
That was a legal hit back then. Everyone tackled leading with there head. Off the field he would give you the shirt off his back. But on it he would knock you out. Tougher back then unlike today game. Pansies today.
I've always thought that if you injure another player on a dirty hit (one that draws a flag), that the fine assessed to the offending player should be paid, in cash, to the victim. Add a little humility to the penalty. And also, if the injured player misses any games, the offending player should miss the same number of games without pay.
If thats the case, say if my 5th string WR catches a pass over the middle and gets wrecked, gets concussed by someone's starting linebacker then I'd just put that scrub on IR and now that team loses their starting linebacker for the year. Smaller injuries will become bigger injuries just because
@@markdarragh6620 Yeah but if I just put them on IR whether they need to go on IR or not then, that would mean the other offending player would have to miss the whole year. Do you see what I mean? Thats why that would be a dumb rule thats easy to manipulate
@@johnnyslokes2712 I completely see what you're saying, and I still say punish the jackwagons who make dirty hits. The rule won't be manipulated once the dirty crap stops. There won't be anything to manipulate.

I noticed that too, as I also watched him play as a kid. No way this list could be legit without him. Our video producer also butchered "Ndamukong Suh" in both spelling and pronunciation. lol Fun vid though!

Welcome! Are you new to this planet? I would suggest you study human behavior very seriously and watch your back or your stay here won't be a pleasant one. And remember this phrase, "People SUCK!". You'll be saying that alot the longer you stay here. Have fun!
Need a video like this for Zaza Pachulia in the NBA. He has entire lowlight videos of him blatantly attempting to injure star players, and had like 45 total flagrant fouls. People forget that the Spurs were posing the 2017 Warriors their first threat that entire playoffs - and were kicking their asses - when Zaza immediately put an end to it. It’s honestly absurd, they were undefeated in the playoffs and Zaza Pachulia just couldn’t handle even facing a challenge for 1 entire game… And Tony Parker (16ppg that playoffs) was out for the playoffs too!
No mention of Lyle Alzado? The man was a roof raging monster that was known to spit blood into the faces of O-Lineman pre-snap. He’s literally the reason they had to make it a rule that you can’t rip helmets off of players.
I would also include former Packer defensive end Charles Martin, for his after-the-play bodyslam of Bear quarterback Jim McMahon in 1986 onto his throwing shoulder, which put him out for the remainder of that season. It was made even worse by the fact that Martin was wearing a towel on the front of his pants that listed the uniform numbers of Bears' stars, such as McMahon, whom he intended to put out of the game.
You missed a few: Chuck Bednarick, who put Frank Gifford out for an entire season with one hit and who described with delight punching Jim Brown in pile ups to try to stop him; Night Train Lane, who invented the clothesline tackle for knocking opponents unconscious; Dick Butkus, who openly gloated over players he’d injured and of whom Mike Ditka was admittedly terrified; and Mean Joe Greene who, if he felt you were holding him, threw uppercuts like a boxer going to the body and who, as a rookie, spit in Dick Butkus’s face. Butkus backed down when Greene offered to fight him right on the field. Interestingly, they’re all in the NFL Football Hall of Fame. That’s the way football was played in their day.
@@holocade4908 It's actually a valid reason when you think about it. I guarantee if any one of these guys had delivered those vicious hits to Brady back then he would not be able to play into his 40s injuries would eventually catch up to him.
0:25 Roy Williams 1:22 James Harrison 2:32 Rodney Harrison 3:37 Hines Ward 4:33 Richie Incognito 5:41 Jack Tatum 6:39 Conrad Dobler 7:35 Ndamukong Suh 8:36 Vontaze Burfict 9:48 Bill Romanowski
Should have shown Rodney Harrison's hit on knee of Rams' Trent Green which changed NFL history causing promotion of second string Kurt Warner who led Rams to Super Bowl victory and Hall of Fame. I can't believe Harrison is a national commentator now given his dirty history.
As far as James Harrison, he literally went from defensive player of the year to enemy #1 in one season. All because the NFL were hiding knowing about concussions and then couldn't hide it anymore. It just feels tragic to me that he got glorified and then vilified in just one season's time.
That's because Harrison started injuring guys from late hits. I like head hunter but it serves no purpose to head hunt a qb after already throwing the ball. The fun of head hunting is doing it when someone is coming from at you and you blow them back. Not when they are not paying attention and already threw it.
Incognito was more of a loud mouthed a-hole than a dirty player. I'm not saying he didn't have his moments on the field, but he was not "one of the dirtiest."
Roided out of his mind. Basically had that huge body coming out of high school. Kicked off the team at Nebraska. Kicked off the team (without playing a game) at Oregon. Stomped opponents. Ripped helmets off opponents. Dirty as they come. Almost as dirty as the top 2 or 3 on this list. Him & Burfict are the modern poster boys for "dirty".
And yet some of the greatest players of all time were genuine nice guys. They were superb on the field, but never broke rules or intentionally hurt someone. Men like Bob Lilly, Merlin Olsen, Howie Long. True sportsmen.
Alot of hard hitters and head hunters were nice guys off the field, because alot of hard hitters get their anger, rage and emotions out on the football field. So off the field they're all relaxed, cool, calm and collected.
“Harrison’s nasty style led him to his great underdog story... but it also got him a name on this list...” I can’t believe he actually killed a browns player by breaking his back...
I thought Burfict would be number one. Then again, I never watched Romanowski play or if I did, took note of him. For years before anyone else mentioned it, I thought Burfict's hit on Antonio Brown was the one that changed him. It turned AB into a monster. It's either CTE or prefrontal lobe damage. And you know what's funny? Burfict and AB are friends.
I'm surprised that Lyle Alzado is not anywhere on this list. His reputation for being a dirty player during his playing days puts many of these modern guys on the list to shame.
they werent listing the toughest, meanest, greatest and strongest. joe greene wasnt a "dirty" player which means hurting people on purpose, and cheating. joe was mean but clean. the best defensive tackle of all time, but simply not a dirty player at all. he wouldnt have made a top 5000 list of "dirty" players. he elbowed a few guys in defense of teammates. he made hard but legal tackles.
The only player to hit many guys with no remorse was Jack Tatum. He's the only guy to hit Daryl Stingley so hard that he paralyzed him til his death. He once said that he wouldn't apologize for the way he played football. So addicted to hitting and hurting guys that he couldn't wait to go out on the field to see who would be his next victim. He ate it like candy 🍬
Hines Ward wasn't dirty. He was a throwback, a guy who could have played in any era. None of the videos shown here show Ward making a dirty play. He blocked hard...not dirty. The block on Elliott was not against the rules. Go and watch some NFL films from the 1950s and early 1960s. Then coming about James Harrison.
Guys like Aaron Rodgers, Drew Brees, Russell Wilson & Patrick Mahomes needs to meet guys from these hit squads l Iike Lawrence Taylor, Ronnie Lott, Jack Tatum & Jack Lambert (Dracula) and many more who enjoy hurting people. I love them all cause they just didn't care! These quarterbacks would leave the game on stretchers. Their air happy days would be over very quickly! The league needs more hitters like this today
I'm grateful that you kept the list with more modern players. I've seen to many list that include only players of the 60's and 70's....it was a more violent game back then...I miss those days...lol.
In the early 90’s Hines played QB for Forest Park High School on the south side of Atlanta. We could all see his greatness then. Now he’s gonna be a HOFer. Unbelievable.
I’m a Steelers fan. Harrison was straight crazy and was roided up. So was Romo who was taking two different steroids at the same time. The Tatum hit on stingley by his own admission was unnecessary however he did go to the hospital after the game and the stingley family refused to let him in the room.
Suh was suspended for two games for dirty play his first two years. Those are the ONLY games he has missed (to my knowledge) in his 11 year career. I would take him any day on my team.
If Hines Ward was dirty, every big hitter ever was dirty, only gave a small handful of the same hits defenders gave every single game. And never threw another when the rule changed. It is a literal impossibility for him to be even top 100 on the subject by any objective measure. You'd also have to throw Steve Smith Sr. in there, as he similarly gave defenses as good as he got...but the two of their entire careers combined didn't have the same amount of similar hits as even a mediocre MLB throughout any single season. It's not dirty just because defenders were too focused on hitting their teammates as hard as they possibly could.
Half of these guys shouldn’t be on here. They were just really great players at their positions. They get paid to lay people out and they’re damn good at. You gotta have a bit of a mean streak to succeed in the NFL
Not true, most of these guys purposely try and injure their opponents or do some crazy shit to them. You have to be physical but there is such a thing as taking it too far
Roy Williams shouldn't be on this list. At the time, he wasn't doing anything against the rules. Just because he did it again 3 times doesn't mean that he was necessarily dirty.
Two Steelers players on here and an offensive one at that, Crack back blocking still legal at the time ward broke his jaw, James Harrison also was not penalized on the field at the time due to the current rules at the time and was fined after the fact, That being said, hey it's just hard nosed football
If I had the chance, and all these guys were in their prime, especially Rodney Harrison, Vontaze Burfict, and Bill Romanowski, I'd sign them all. Might be a lot of 15 yard penalties, but no team would be more feared than that one.
You could basically fill out the list with 70s Raiders/Steelers and call it a day.
Me: Already knowing Vontaze Burfict is on the list since he has like 7 different suspensions
And he’s been fined like 700,000 dollars throughout his career. Sheesh 😬

you better change that thumbnail. Andre is one of the cleanest chillest dudes out there. Out here making him seem like a menace.
How’s he gonna put Andre Johnson in the thumbnail but not on the list?
Clickbait
Bc hes not a dirty player by any means lol
I think it was supposed to be for Finnegan? But he wasn't in the video either, lol
I clicked just to make sure Romanowski was included. Good video.
Hines Ward got a lot of hate because he flipped the script on defenses by making the hunters become the hunted.
Yeah, if it were up to me, I probably would have replaced him with either Charles Martin or Jonathan Vilma.
This is an AMAZING video experience. Damn.
Why do you sound like the voice for the mercs in BO2? “Don’t stop till there all dead”
lmaoo
8:50 The fact that Andy Janovich got right back up after taking that hit... Jano is such a stud
Can we appreciate that this video is exactly 11 Minutes long?
I know it was only once so I didn’t expect him on here but thought of Mason Rudolph’s brawl with Myles Garrett when I saw this
Hines Ward wasn't dirty. He was a throwback, a guy who could have played in any era. None of the videos shown here show Ward making a dirty play. He blocked hard...not dirty. The block on Elliott was not against the rules.
Go and watch some NFL films from the 1950s and early 1960s. Then coming about James Harrison.
Guys like Aaron Rodgers, Drew Brees, Russell Wilson & Patrick Mahomes needs to meet guys from these hit squads l Iike Lawrence Taylor, Ronnie Lott, Jack Tatum & Jack Lambert (Dracula) and many more who enjoy hurting people. I love them all cause they just didn't care! These quarterbacks would leave the game on stretchers. Their air happy days would be over very quickly! The league needs more hitters like this today
I'm grateful that you kept the list with more modern players. I've seen to many list that include only players of the 60's and 70's....it was a more violent game back then...I miss those days...lol.
Knew berfect when he was in HS. my dads friend was his high school coach. Hes always been a rough hitter with a bad temper
You forgot Jonathan Vilma a linebacker who was apart of the 2009 saints bounty gate
In the early 90’s Hines played QB for Forest Park High School on the south side of Atlanta. We could all see his greatness then. Now he’s gonna be a HOFer. Unbelievable.
bro, you spelled aaron rodgers wrong at 8:09, c'mon.
I’m a Steelers fan. Harrison was straight crazy and was roided up. So was Romo who was taking two different steroids at the same time. The Tatum hit on stingley by his own admission was unnecessary however he did go to the hospital after the game and the stingley family refused to let him in the room.
As they should've done, to be honest. Tatum didn't deserve the opportunity to clear his conscience after that.
Suh was suspended for two games for dirty play his first two years. Those are the ONLY games he has missed (to my knowledge) in his 11 year career. I would take him any day on my team.
My favorite is when Suh kicked that QB in the balls lol 😂
If Hines Ward was dirty, every big hitter ever was dirty, only gave a small handful of the same hits defenders gave every single game. And never threw another when the rule changed. It is a literal impossibility for him to be even top 100 on the subject by any objective measure.
You'd also have to throw Steve Smith Sr. in there, as he similarly gave defenses as good as he got...but the two of their entire careers combined didn't have the same amount of similar hits as even a mediocre MLB throughout any single season. It's not dirty just because defenders were too focused on hitting their teammates as hard as they possibly could.
Does anybody remember Conrad Dobler?
Dude your voice is so deep and satisfying
Half of these guys shouldn’t be on here. They were just really great players at their positions. They get paid to lay people out and they’re damn good at. You gotta have a bit of a mean streak to succeed in the NFL
No
Not true, most of these guys purposely try and injure their opponents or do some crazy shit to them. You have to be physical but there is such a thing as taking it too far
I was glad to see Rodney Harrison, but thought he should have higher on the list. I am also surprised not to see Chuck Cecil on the list.
I was waiting for vontez burfict
Roy Williams shouldn't be on this list. At the time, he wasn't doing anything against the rules. Just because he did it again 3 times doesn't mean that he was necessarily dirty.
What about Lucy? She'd actively sabotage the kicker to the point of injuring him!
The title is "Dirtiest", not "Most Evil".
Some of these players have serious issues, what goes around comes around
Facts they don’t even care about the repercussions of their dirty play I was glad that the nfl ended vontaze burfict’s season
What repercussions they are still rich. No accountability
Yo why does this feel like one of those team captain reels from blitz the league 2 lmao
Two Steelers players on here and an offensive one at that,
Crack back blocking still legal at the time ward broke his jaw,
James Harrison also was not penalized on the field at the time due to the current rules at the time and was fined after the fact,
That being said, hey it's just hard nosed football
No, it’s a dirty piece of 💩
If Jack Tatum wouldn't have paralyzed Darryl Stingley, I think he would have been in the HOF.
Is no one gonna talk about how he spelled Aaron Rodgers name
Aron Rodgers lol
Hines Ward earned his place on the list.Those blind side blocks were filthy.
Lyle Alzado could have been included
I wish he showed clips of what he was talking about at the time.
“The greatest blocking wide receiver of all time” as he is jumping to catch a pass
Imagine Bill Romanowski and jack Tatum on the team in the 70s
It would be badass
Thank you for promoting the sissifivation of the NFL
Me having everyone on this list on my MUT team...
“I would’ve killed him if I knew it was gonna lead to a 70,000 fine.” Lmfaoo 😭
This is the most crispiest voice I’ve ever heard XD
As a Detroit fan Suh was an overpaid liability but, TOP 3 BABY 💪💪. Least the Lions are at the top of any list
“VIEWER DISCRETION IS ADVISED”
Lol 😆
If I had the chance, and all these guys were in their prime, especially Rodney Harrison, Vontaze Burfict, and Bill Romanowski, I'd sign them all. Might be a lot of 15 yard penalties, but no team would be more feared than that one.
Who else came just to see vonteze berfict
You forgot Charles Martin of the 80s Packers
Todays nfl is to soft compared to when I was a kid
People’s lives & health aren’t worth your entertainment. You go play & get CTE & we will all laugh at you.
