Thirteen seasons isn't long enough? People are upset because Howie was smart enough to get out with his health intact.
Thirteen years in the NFL playing the line is amazing, you're right, he got out in one piece, at the right time.
If you end up having multiple back surgeries, both knees and hips replaced AND suffering from CTE as a bonus....you were a great player otherwise meh
Well Michael Lombardi was the one who said that so i took it as blasphemy anyway
Hello, how long have you been following my page?
The difference between Howie Long and other great Raiders is that he was as tough as any of them but he wasn't a head case. Howie always had class. Something that was blatantly lacking in other Raiders and fans as well. Case in point, the guy in this video with the Raider shield on his melon.
Wasn’t as tough lol? You don’t know much about Howie Long
There's a belief (untrue) you have to be a psycho to be a Raider. Not so. Long, Jim Plunkett, Art Shell, Mike Haynes, Daryl LaMonica, Tom Flores (probably others) were 'eagle scouts' Others like Matt Millen, Skip Thomas, Cliff Branch, Ken Stabler, Reggie Kinlaw, they were what's known as 'characters...with character.' Then there were the psychos, too numerous to mention. What I mean is the Raiders just wanted you to be yourself (WHATEVER that was) and then play your guts out on Sunday.
“Class” is not something one would associate with players or fans of any team of this brutal sport.
Not a Raiders fan, but Howie will always be my favorite man to have donned the silver and black. In my family, he made my grandma a fan of the team (long before their move to Vegas, the area my grandparents live now; back then, they lived in New York) in his heyday not just because he was a great player, but because she had a crush on him, too!
Image going from a catholic college to the Oakland raiders locker Howie long.
Well he grew up a poor kid on the streets of blue collar Charlestown in Boston
Great,Great,Great Raider.
One of the best for sure. I agree, he should have been 1!
Howie played all 5 spots on the defensive line,and was constantly double teamed,so he didn't get the sacks others did,but he was a huge disruptive force.Google Bill Parcels talking about Long,among others!
Which are what?? Nose tackle, defensive tackle, right defensive end, left defensive end and what else?? A 3-4 linebacker?? Idk if LB's are considered D-Line though
Left end,left tackle,nose guard, right tackle, right end.The Raiders mainly played 3-4,but also played 4-3.
The greatest Raider.
Howie is rated to high. Raiders have so many great players.
Howie was the most dominant defensive player on 2 Super Bowl teams. Enough said.
Hello, how long have you been my fan?
I would say Howie Long is number 1 of all time on the Raiders and around number 15 all time In the NFL
And I'm a Broncos fan
Howie Long the original JJ Watt
75 the best
George Atkinson is a fool . He was better than the entire Raiders defense in the 70s
all time Oakland raiders... George blanda, the snake,Jack Tatum,Fred Biletnikoff,Cliff Branch,art shell,gene Upshaw,ray guy ,the mad stork,lester the molester,jim otto,janikowski,charles woodson,mike davis, the raider nation!!!!
Great Raider, and despite being a big fan of his, he was not the #2 GOAT of the Raiders.
There are 10 Raiders not on this list that could be.
Marcus Allen #1...
Mike's
bo jackson?
No way is he number 2.
why so low
Definitely not #2. Not even 3. I'll stop there.
yeah I'm a Raider fan and he doesn't even make the top 10 he only had 84 career sacks
It's not just about numbers. He changed the opponents gameplan.
@@randomname3715 Your a I DIOT HE WAS A JOKE
Way too high on the list, maybe not even top 10
Rich Gannon?
Atkinson is clueless. Howie was light years better than any Raiders lineman on any of his 70s teams . Not even debatable
Greg Townsend got all those sacks because of Howie Long being double team and sometimes triple team it freed up Townsend to rush the passer but Greg Townsend was a great defensive end make no mistake about it with Howie Long being the Wildman and then throw in Lyle Alzado aggression with a short temper and you got one hell of a group on the defensive line
That entire defense is so underrated. You got Bill Pickell too. The insane cornerback duo of Hayes and Haynes, and The LBs like Rod Martin, Matt Millen, and of course the great Ted Hendricks0
Still think it's a crime Ted Hendricks didn't make the list.
Poison_0038 yup
Agreed!
..as long as he's on YOUR list; who cares mate :-)
Amem to that.
I personally believe that there's too many raiders for a top 10
Howie Long was drafted by the Raiders when they were in Oakland in 1981 and then he continued his career with the Raiders until 1993 and I'm still a huge fan of his for a long time since 1981
Hello, how long have you been following my page?
When I think of the raiders I think of Howie Long
Really? I think of Jack Tatum & Al Davis
@@King_Arthur_ Bo Jackson all the way!!
@@nikkisixx6042 lol
One of the most underrated players in NFL history if not the most.
try overrated only 84 miserable sacks
That flattop fade belongs in a museum
Cliff Branch most underrated.
Steve Largent is probably the most underrated player. Yes he made the Hall of Fame, but he is still relatively unknown. Led the NFL in receiving yards until Jerry Rice beat him. Was the reason Rice wanted number #80 Had arguably the greatest hands of all time. When Largent retired, he held all major NFL receiving records, including: most receptions in a career (819), most receiving yards in a career (13,089), and most touchdown receptions (100). He was also in possession of a then-record streak of 177 consecutive regular-season games with a reception. He also holds the distinction as the first receiver in NFL history to achieve 100 touchdown receptions in his career.
@@andrewhall7930Don Hutson clears Largent
Honestly, I don’t mind Howie being this high cuz of the simple fact he played his whole career with the raiders. Marcus Allen, Ken Stabler, Ted Hendricks didn’t
That wasn't their faults.
@@jaylucien669 nonetheless…
where's Charles Woodson
this list was made a few years back if i remember
I think it's because he wasn't only on the raiders.He was also a green bay player
Yeah, he was still playing when this was made and they don't typically put current players on these lists
+Javier Alvarado They put Willie Brown at number 9 and he wasn't just a Raider either.
Old Man Willie played the majority of his days as a RAIDER so basically he was a RAIDER through and through. Mike Haynes played half his career with the Patriots and the second half with the RAIDERS so you could go either way. A last example would be Jerry Rice, he would be considered as a 49er despite his 3 or so years as a RAIDER (3 excellent years, but he wasn't a 'long time' RAIDER that you would compare with other 'long time' RAIDERS).
He was Great 👍 Very intelligent man. On the field &off the field just listen to him speak on sundays Says it all about the character of the man. Class act. 👍🇺🇸
Howie was a Beast. Played his entire career with the Raiders
1st time Hall of Fame ballot.
My favorite Raider Ever !!!
howie is still in shape
?????? #2 RAIDER OF ALL TIME....BUT NOT ONE OF THE TOP `100 NFL GREATS??? hmmm
Lyle Alzado should be a honorable mention
Lyle Alzado was a part of "orange crush" defense and a certified PED user, so off the list he goes. Although, they are quite hypocritical with those lists as most NFL players are on PEDs these days.
Antiwan T
Alzado played his best with Denver and Cleveland
John Hannah of the Patriots said Joe Klecko and Howie Long were the greatest players he ever played against.
He’s # 1 !!!!!!! A phenomenal player...he was a BEAST!!!! His sack record hasn’t been broken and he had the most sacks before they were recorded as a stat!! NOBODY can even touch him...controversial? I say it’s only GREATNESS!!!! He’s a one of a kind!! There will never be anyone like him again!!!🧡🧡🧡
Really, how long have you been my fan?
Actually Greg Townsend has the most sacks in Oakland Raiders history
Over 100 sacks
Howie has about 80
@@dumisatonyjohnson8145 at the time before sacks were recorded. Howie was # 1…
Guy played until 33, HE PLAYED LONG ENOUGH, haha.
...Honestly I'd have Ted Hendricks instead of Howie Long.
Tom B You are crazy. Gimme an Elite DT over a OLB any day
Mike Youngblood
Long mostly played The End position in his HOF career with the LA Raiders
Howie Long can play any position on the D line and still get through 💪🏼😤
Love Howie but personally I would of put Jack Tatum at #2.
Howie Long #75

Hello
The QB who put the Raiders on the map was Daryl Lamonica and not on the list ?
Exactly.
Darin Loveland compared to Ken "The Snake" Stabler.........
The Mad Bomber
From 1960 to 1966 the Raiders were not very good. They traded for Lamonca and Daryle immediately turned them
into a power house. He led them to a 13-1 record and a Super Bowl berth in 1967, a 12-2 record in 1968 ( lost to Jets
in the Playoffs, and went 12-1-1 in 1969 losing to K.C. in the Playoffs. That 36-4-1 W/L mark is still the best 3 year
stretch in history..
H Long on one side either Alzado or Matusak on the other, defense coordinators dream of this now
Like Arnold Schwarzenegger in cleats!
How da hell he gonna say Howie didn’t play long enough? Lawrence Taylor played same amount of years??!?!?
He's number ONE. Nobody dominated as a Raider more than Howie. Even Shell and Upshaw, they got beat regularly. But when you watched Howie play he changed every opponents gameplan.
When I think of Raiders it's definitely B0 Jackson
Dude, Shell and Upshaw were not "beaten regularly."
They were both first ballot HOF offensive linemen.
What's with George Atkinson saying Howie doesn't belong at #2???? Is he senile, Howie was a beast.
Why am I not seeing HOF Raiders legend Ted Hendricks?
John3:16 For God so love the world he sent his only begotten son for whoever believes in him shall not perish but live an everlasting life
Where is Jim Otto
They placed him 00, very top of the list.
He could have been great DUKE NUKEM! 💪😎
He bleeds Silver and Black
His haircut belongs in the Hall of Fame
Townsend got more sacks because Howie occupied more blockers.
Howie is my absolute favorite Raider ever!
when I see Howie it makes me wish that the Raiders were still in LA
The Raiders of the late 60’s to the late 80’s were freakin intense!!!
Looking on his highlight i realize that Howie Long is a smart player, he utilize his arm to "throw" offensive linemen and Quarterback like in Judo or Jujitsu instead of "colliding" his body to his opponent in order to bring them down, no wonder he is one of the few players from the 80's who is the healthiest
Top 10 Raider? Sure. #2? Nope.
I first watched this shouting, ”c’mon, I want Howie high here!”
Over 80 sacks at left defensive end, right defensive end & nose tackle in his 13 year NFL career with the Oakland Raiders/Los Angeles Raiders in the 1980s & early 1990s
13 years is a pretty long time
Not bad for a 2nd round pick out of Villanova
I'm probably in the minority but I'd call Howie Long the #1 RAIDER player in team history. From his rookie season to his final game Long was a beast, and everyone knew it. He was relentless, a pass rushing DL that could play NT and the run with the best of them. IMO only a handful of guys, like Joe Greene and Reggie White, are ahead of Long... and not by much.
SuedeStonn If you know the Raiders, you'd know that Jim Otto, Ken Stabler, Art Shell, Gene Upshaw, Jack Tatum, Willie Brown, Lester Hayes, Mike Haynes, Marcus Allen, and hell even Cliff Branch had bigger impacts for the lore of the Oakland Raiders than Howie.
www.pro-football-reference.com/players/L/LongHo00.htm ONLY 84.0 SACKS PATHETIC I'm a Raider fan there were many games where he didn't even make a assist The only people that say hes good are white fans
46dc9er Nice Job bringing race into this buddy
SuedeStonn bro you dumb. Reggie white and Joe Greene are WAY better than Bowie long. Let's not even mention bob Lilly and ted Hendricks.
SuedeStonn
Long was a Raider (a great player)
But he only had 83 sacks in his 12 year career with the Los Angeles Raiders
13 seasons is not a short NFL career.
only 85 sacks and in the HALL OF FAME ?? WHAT A FRAUD I'll take Lester Hayes , Jack Tatum Greg Townshend ,Terry McDaniel over this guy anytime and they're not in the Hall of Fame Howie Long
Y need more than 10 for greatest raiders
If we ranked raiders players based on how much of a true raider they were, lyle alzado would be #1, no doubt. Absolutely murderous on a football field, and lyle was damn nice
Do you remember that 5 sack game Khalil Mack had against the Donkeys when he took over the game?
That was Howie about 4 times a year.
Townsend got more sacks because he played his entire career with Howie getting double and triple teamed next to him.
Yeah NFL Films didn't distinguish that Howie Long is an "LA RAIDER", his power and competitiveness was straight out of the "Oakland" Raiders playbook, but he played in Los Angeles other than his rookie campaign in Oakland. He helped define LA Raider football.
Any ranking from #1-#10 will do but you HAVE TO INCLUDE Howie on that list. Howie was all action and zero posturing. At least not until he delivered the game-breaking sack or tackle.
Townsend was great but he's the sack leader BECAUSE he played opposite Howie, no question about it. That's a fact. Great pass rushers often do NOT lead in sacks because they are double or triple teamed every play, which means more sacks for everyone else!
Not complicated.
No way he's #2
Greg Townsend Should be the #2 🏴☠️ Of all Time! He was Great with Lyle Alzado & Howie Long!
What other player for the raiders destroyed other teams game plan because they had to focus on one guy for the whole game ok maybe one Bo jackson. Greg ya he had more sacks its easy when you just play one position but Howie played every position down the line and was great at every one but not Greg. Howie was a threat you couldn't prepare for you can't try. He is the definition of a raider. Put one two three guys on him and still couldn't be stop how many interceptions did Greg have. So ya he should be #1 but #2 is good too.
Only guys besides Art Shell and Gene Upshaw I’d put ahead of Howie would be Mike Haynes and he only played 7 years with the Raiders
Howie Long was everything nasty about the Raiders in the 80s, he's number 2 in my book, but technically he's at 4 on this list.
Howie Long, Matusak, and Alzado are the only Las Vegas Faiders players I respect, they're all beasts....
Bo jackson,marcus allen?
@@blackcoffeeentertainment2241 Jack Tatum!
The most overrated player in the history of the franchise AND I'M A RAIDER FAN even helmet head said " 2 ?its a bit high" 84 miserable sacks ? He's right up there with Dan Hampton
He has 84 RECTUM go look it up ! Stupid ass
Lying ass dog he had 84 www.pro-football-reference.com/players/L/LongHo00.htm
Measuring a defensive lineman’s effectiveness by sack numbers is lazy. The 2000 Ravens didn’t have a lot of sacks. Does that mean they weren’t a great defense?
Back when football was FOOTBALL
1:30 business in front party in the back 🤣 sounds just like Chris 🤘
Is Ndamukong Suh as good as Howie Long?
Howie is great, but two is way too high. He's like 6 or 7.
I LOVED how much he hated the Broncos.
Ted Hendricks, John Matuzak , Lyle Alzado, Jack Tatum, Lester Hayes, Mike Haynes, George Atkinson
RAIDER NATION FOR EVER BABY!! HOWIE IS THE ULTIMATE RAIDER,OUR CLEAN CUT RAIDER IS THE BLACK SHEEP OF THE BLACK SHEEPS,,,,THE DARK SIDE MISSES YOU HOWIE LONG!!!!!!!
ken stabler,lester hayes ,marcus allen,rod martin,ray guy greatest punter ever...George blanda qb/kicker 46 years old ...there is no # of Raiders ranked,they are all Raiders. Silver and Black.
He wasn’t #2, he’s #1!, who’s better???
Why am I not seeing Greg Townsend or Jake Plummer or the late TE Todd Christensen
The stupid list ever
He should have been 1.
People don't realize that the sack number was so low because he wasn't always used to pass rush. He was used as a defensive tackle at times which doesn't help in the sack department. He would be much more celebrated today with advanced metrics
Only has 84 miserable sacks in a vastly overrated career www.pro-football-reference.com/players/L/LongHo00.htm
Bo Jackson Howie Long
He belongs in the top ten but this is too high.
Really, how long have you been my fan?
Doesn't Townsend have the most sacks in raider history?
Not many played to the whistle in EVERY play of his career
Stop
