I got to go to Jerome Brown’s football camp. I went to both camps. Before his death and after. I got to go to Jerome’s house after the camp to eat lunch. It was so awesome being 11-12 years old and sitting at a table with. Jerome, Reggie White Randall Cunningham Seth Joyner Keith buyers Keith Jackson and more. That’s one lunch I will never forget.
I got to meet Reggie White and Meith Jackson at a church where Reggie was a guess and preached to that church. He put Keith Jackson on the pulpit to preach a few words as well. I had to respect that they were their to preach the word and not give out autographs. I only went because my mother said they were going to be there and I wanted autographs not the word..😂😂😂😂. Sorry God..😂😂😂
One of the greatest defenses of all time. Had Cunningham not gotten injured early in '91 that team may have gone to the Super Bowl. Sad that before the '92 season Jerome Brown (RIP) was killed in a car crash. Probably one of the best teams to never win a Championship.
Perhaps the most underrated defense in NFL history. They actually managed to win 10 games that year without Randall Cunningham(entire season) and Jim McMahon(half the season) Their QBs were.. Brad Goebel Pat Ryan Jeff Kemp WHO?!?
@@alexandriaocasio-smollett5078 I loved that team and that defense was just dominating ,I had season tickets then just like today and although other Eagles teams went further in the playoffs this was my favorite team they just dominated on defense and intimidated the other teams with their style of play
They are often not included in the greatest defense conversation. Love those guys! Seth, Reggie, Clyde, Jerome, Byron, Waters et al. Best all time defenses: 76 Steelers, 77 Falcons, 85 Bears, 91 Eagles, 2000 Ravens.
When football was football! I waa a huge Eagles fan back then and they were far and away the funnest team to watch ever. Between Randall and that D, Sundays were a lot of fun. Merril Reese valling those games was priceless too. How they didnt win a Superbowl is beyond me.
It's because they were in the NFC East which happened to be one of the hardest divisions at the time. It was stacked with Parcells Giants, well coached Washington, then obviously the Cowboys dynasty started to form.
I will also never forget being the only white kid there and everyone at Jerome’s house treating me like family. Jerome and his parents really are the nicest people you would ever meet.
Wore my Giants gear there plenty of times in all different sections upstairs and downstairs never had a problem. Just typical fans talking shit. No biggy....now you want to see scary and pain....ask Red Sox fans who came to the bleachers in Yankee stadium back in the 70s 80s and 90s...there you would see some pain dished out big-time! And that was at a friggin baseball game lol
Mike Dean .... Randall is a BEAST in Tecmo Super Bowl... But Philly’s D isn’t that great in the game ... But they’re still a top 5 team ... Randall is like having a running back and receiver in one player ...
They put the current NFL to absolute shame. They played the game as it was meant to be played. They were ferocious, better than the 1980 Super Bowl defense, which was stalwart.
I remember that house of pain game on Monday Night- what a blast that was !! We watched it at Chi Chi's restaurant on Rt. 38 in Cherry Hill- lol, back when I had friends !!.... 🚬😎
They got caught in between a 13 year super bowl run by the NFC. 7 of those were won by a team in their own division. That was a tough division at that time
That was a nasty defense. Did you know the Giants had a chance to draft Reggie White but took Gary Zimmerman instead? Could you imagine LT & Reggie on the same defense! ?
Perhaps the most underrated defense in NFL history. They actually managed to win 10 games that year without Randall Cunningham(entire season) and Jim McMahon(half the season) Their QBs were.. Brad Goebel Pat Ryan Jeff Kemp WHO?!?
1991 was it and if Randall didn't go down the first game they would have given the Redskins a run for their money, but at that time the Redskins were just killing it that 91 season. They shut out the Eagles at RFK 23-0 and when the Redskins did play again, the backups were in and the Eagles barely pulled it out with a last second field goal. It was just the offense especially at QB that lagged behind. Jim McMahon was a good backup, but as always he got hurt at the end which stifled the Eagles offense. Dallas who was up and coming beat the Eagles for that wildcard spot and the Falcons got in at 10-6. After that it was downhill for the Eagles. Jerome Brown died in that car accident because he was going too fast down a single lane road and lost control. Jerome made it impossible to run up the middle and once he wasn't there, Emmitt Smith got his first 100 yard game against the Eagles that season. So when the Eagles did pull a wildcard win, they faced the 13-3 Cowboys in the divisional round. The Cowboys were an upcoming team. They had gone 11-5 and a wildcard win the first playoff win since 1982 and the first home game since 1983. So the Eagles were confident and when the game started the Eagles had a 3-0 lead. The the Cowboys got the ball and the game was over. The Cowboys scored on their opening possession and the Eagles just got curbed stomped that game. From there it was even further downhill from there. Reggie White left to the Packers in free agency. Mike Golic went to Miami and slowly the players that solidified that team went away. Andre Waters just wasn't the same after breaking his leg in 1992. The 93 Eagles started fast as they did in 92, but Randall broke his leg against the Jets and had no good backup and the Eagles missed out of the playoffs. In 94, the Eagles again started fast and then the Cowboys beat them and they collapsed again late in the season. The Eagles had a great defense just the Giants, Redskins, and Cowboys were better and got their Super Bowl wins.
The 91 eagles were top 7 in every defensive category. That's an amazing stat even the most amazing of defenses can't achieve. They were balanced, and dominant
This sound familiar to anyone? I grew up watching this legendary defense, but our Eagles that just won the big game had a very similar story- not the violence (can u imagine today's offense paired w/ Buddy Ryan's 'D'?!) but the comraderie among the team...those guys had Rev. Reggie White, we have "Rev" Carson Wentz, they spent every minute together as brothers, so did our SB LII winners... there's a lesson here-
The Hogs used to EAT THESE GUYS ALIVE. LOL They reference the body bag game but we went back up there in 2 weeks and pushed their shit in during the playoffs. In 1991 the Hogs crammed the ball down their throats and the team rushed for 171 yards against them. In the last game of the season our backups nearly beat them. A good defense for sure but Joe Gibbs OWNED them.
@@vicalamuso3427yeah, but Carson was defensive coordinator of the Steelers in the 1970s AND the 1991 Eagles which were statistically a lot better than Buddy's Ds. Carson should get A LOT of the credit
stackleft They truly were " that was a defense that literally struck fear into the opposition" Mean Fast and unrelenting - To bad Randall Cunningham blew his knee out the first game of the season BECAUSE that team was poised for something special that "90" season BUT that's the way football goes " injuries are a bitch" - Bears defense in "85" was special and won a super bowl That Eagles defense might was a tad better than Chicago and arguably the best but did not win a super bowl " Go Figure."
james b Nope their was a stretch between "89" to "91" they were great maybe team wise BUT did they get the ultimate result in the end NO - So you are probably right they will be remembered as really good.
james b Yep - I agree and it's all just a matter of opinion AND that's what makes it fun - And you are right if anything they were downright scary defense I'll never forget the game when they sacked Troy Aikman 11 times in one game.
Maaaannn i wish defenses today could play like this defense did. WRs literally were gettin their spines crunched when they came across the middle! To say our D line dominated back then truly is an understatement. They totally crunched the o line, rbs, and QBs to a powder 😂. Sad that because of former players suing the league because of their concussions and other bodily injuries, that the way defenses play today is so soft and watered down. I was a baby in pampers during these days of the buddy ryan led eagles teams when grown men were out there playing FOOTBALL! Gotta appreciate the game for what it truly was back in the day.
I remember them. I could not understand why they did not win the Superbowl. Randall Cunningham was their quarterback. I noticed that Randall got rattled sometimes under pressure. They had the best defense in NFL
I'll answer that question for you why they didn't win a Superbowl. they had a terrible offensive line with no running game , terrible coaching while the NFC East had Jimmy Johnson Joe Gibbs and Bill Parcells. and the Eagles had buddy Ryan and Rich kotite. enough said.
@@johndolejsch5102 Yeah...they had 3 great teams in their division, that all won Super Bowls. And if they avoided the teams in their division in the playoffs, they had to deal with the 49ers, Rams, or Bears. The NFC was a meat grinder back then....
Randall tore his knee in first game of the season vs green Bay. I remember watching that game and knew their season was shot. I just knew they weren't gonna go 500 with Jim McMahon as their starter since he was brittle af....this defense carried them to 10 wins with backup QBs....
I know this is going to rub a lot of Buddy Ryan yahoos in a bad way, but Buddy Ryan was fired the previous season. The '91 Eagles were coached by Rich Kotite with Bud Carson as defensive coordinator.
More so by by letting some of our key players walk. Ryan should have been fired. He was a great evaluator of talent but not a good head coach. It took Bud Carson to get the most out of this defense. Also, Buddy new nothing about the offensive side of the ball and misused Randall's talents.
I am enjoying watching Aikman go down like the sack of potatoes that he was! Greatest QB my ass! 91 Eagles D was one of the best ever! R.I.P White, J. Brown, Hopkins and Waters! All greatest to be on the field!
these guys were pretty extraordinary even though they didn't a superbowl they had to deal with alot adversity back then and that's why they didn't get there and win one or two superbowls.
Missing the playoffs was the best thing that could've happened to Gang Grene...because their legacy would be a lot different if the last memory of them had been their sideline misery as the RFK faithful have gleefully waved body bags after watching the offense of the greatest TEAM ever make them look ordinary for the third time...
I think that defensive performance against the Cowboys was a catalyst to their 90s dynasty. Jimmie Johnson traded for a draft haul which led to some of their best players ever.
This 91 team was the best defense of all time but with no Lombardi attached to it they don't get the notoriety of the likes of the 85 Bears or 2000 Ravens....that year they lost Randall first game of season and Jim McMahon for several games...they still won 10 games with QBs off the scrap yard...mostly because of defense...they were winning 7-6 games....it was Buddy's guys but they all hit their prime after Buddy left the Eagles
Cowboys fan here, but attention Mr. Allen: You left out the Steel Curtain. THAT was the greatest defensive unit of all time, but yes, the Eagles were absolutely awesome - until 1992 :)
R.I.P. REGGIE WHITE, JEROME BROWN, ANDRE "DIRTY" WATERS,AND WES HOPKINS.IN THE LATE 80s, I FELL IN LOVE WITH THIS TEAM BECAUSE OF THE TENACIOUS DEFENSE, AND FEROCIOUSNESS IN WHICH THEY PLAYED!! WHEN THEY BEAT YOU, YOU FELT IT!! WHEN YOU BEAT THEM, YOU STILL FELT IT!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 CANT EVEN PLAY THE GAME LIKE THAT ANYMORE 😔 "$TEAD BLOCC' 🤘 TOWN
This defense is what made the Dallas Cowboys offense great. They had to build it to beat this defense. Its a shame they had Randall at QB and he was limited in his capacity.
I will say this and I don't care if people say I'm a homer or whatever to me this is the greatest defense I've ever seen. I know it's the greatest defense of the 90s
So true....129 points in 14 games!! Although I'd go 76 Steelers. Bradshaw gets injured week 4 ...Defense gives up 28 total points in final NINE games!! Then beat a really good Colts team in Baltimore. Also, unlike the fraud 91 Eagles they do not lose to Cowboys, at home, with backup QB in must win game
Not only did his death rock Philly, it rocked the entire NFL. Jerome was loved and respected all throughout the league. Great player, and a great guy.....
Sadly, in today's "flag football" NFL, all these great hard hits would have also made this defense the most penalized in the league. It's a shame that this type of physicality has been adjudicated out of the game.

R.I.P. REGGIE WHITE, JEROME BROWN, ANDRE "DIRTY" WATERS,AND WES HOPKINS.IN THE LATE 80s, I FELL IN LOVE WITH THIS TEAM BECAUSE OF THE TENACIOUS DEFENSE, AND FEROCIOUSNESS IN WHICH THEY PLAYED!! WHEN THEY BEAT YOU, YOU FELT IT!! WHEN YOU BEAT THEM, YOU STILL FELT IT!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 CANT EVEN PLAY THE GAME LIKE THAT ANYMORE 😔 "$TEAD BLOCC' 🤘 TOWN
That defense was gross. Jerome Brown is one of my favorites of all time. Also loves Clyde simmons
This defense is what made the Dallas Cowboys offense great. They had to build it to beat this defense. Its a shame they had Randall at QB and he was limited in his capacity.
I will say this and I don't care if people say I'm a homer or whatever to me this is the greatest defense I've ever seen. I know it's the greatest defense of the 90s
Greatest 4 man front in NFL history. Don't forget they also has Clyde Simmons and Mike pitts
1977 falcons was the greatest but nobody talks about that team cause they was 7-7
So true....129 points in 14 games!!
Although I'd go 76 Steelers. Bradshaw gets injured week 4 ...Defense gives up 28 total points in final NINE games!! Then beat a really good Colts team in Baltimore.
Also, unlike the fraud 91 Eagles they do not lose to Cowboys, at home, with backup QB in must win game
Im a cowboys fan and i hate the Sheagles. But there is no denying the 1991 Eagles team had one of the best defense EVER!
I think Jerome brown dying made Reggie ultimately leave Philadelphia.
Not only did his death rock Philly, it rocked the entire NFL. Jerome was loved and respected all throughout the league. Great player, and a great guy.....
It will be comical to see what the Rams do this year with great DB, D Line!
Sadly, in today's "flag football" NFL, all these great hard hits would have also made this defense the most penalized in the league. It's a shame that this type of physicality has been adjudicated out of the game.
