Unbelievable athlete for sure. Epic speed. However, no one talks about his endurance. Not just super fast but to play offense and defense. It's very rare!
Blackshirt- D You make it sound as though Green would simply dust Deion and run away from him. But according to what times we have for both of them, it's pretty close. It would appear at their peaks, Green was right around .2 seconds faster than Deion in regard to 40 yard and 100 yard times. So something more like a photo finish with Green ever so slightly taking a clear enough lead to establish a winner. But yeah, Darrell Green could flat burn and had stamina for days.
Watch the clips. He was playing like a safety, though he had the hands of a WR and ran like a RB/HB. He knew how the QB threw and how the WR played. He covered the top WR and would shut him down, what he lacked in bulk and tackling he made up in speed they didn't even show his pass deflection stats. He could get away with not playing tight cause he'd pick off or deflect it. Too bad Atlanta didn't have an offense plugg that defense with they're offense now oh man 19-0 heck they'd go 40-0 before losing. Dion wouldn't of allowed that comeback back two seasons ago.
The craziest thing about some of his INT highlights is at first you think "what was that qb thinking, that was a terrible pass." Then you realize that Deion was coming off his man and picking off a throw to a receiver that he wasn't originally covering....his speed and vision was unreal
He was waiting to see if the qb was going to throw across the body to the weak side, after his coverage gets help from the high safe. You cant put as much juice on the ball like that. And against an elite, you will get picked.
I swear deion is the only person I can listen to talk about themselves in the 3rd person ...His confidence is refreshing.."..their about to go up 14-0 and they try prime in the endzone...1st of all dats idiotic.."🤣🤣🤣😂😂
I'm 45 years old, and Deion Sanders was in his NFL football prime right when I was in high school playing football myself. Deion Sanders was the most talented cornerback to have ever played. Think about how famous he is, then remember he plays DEFENSE.
I’m 42. We grew up at a special time. Neon Deion, Michael Jordan, Bo Jackson, Joe Montana, Troy Aikman, the list goes on and on. Of all the freakishly good athletes we got to watch in their prime Deion was just different. Michael was the same way. “They play a game I am not familiar with” is a golf quote but applies to MJ and Neon Deion perfectly. I love the cult following Jordan’s have maintained to this day. I remember having all of them. We wore the shit out of them but I wish I would have thought ahead and realized how valuable it would be today. Absolute icons.
@Tom Ross TV I understand Iverson didn't win a championship. But understand what he did for the culture. His influence was heavier than anyone since Jordan. That's the SWAG arm sleeve tattoos play style the image flashy Deion the bandanas dancing jewelery. R.I.P. Kobe though also another icon.
I wanna say Magic Johnson and Deion Sanders are equivalents Biggest smiles in the world, loads of charisma, ultra flashy highlight reels, both born in August, and loved and respected by all generations from the boomers to millennials
Deon played smart football .Not over aggressive or dirty ,didn't have to tackle hard to put fear in you and dominated the opposing receivers. I believe he is the greatest corner off all-time A two way player that demanded the most attention on both sides of the ball. Truly the the best I've seen.
Overrated dint play vs high flying passing offenses of today, jerry rice could burn him every time and the only time he made a play was when the QB threw behind or just a shitty pass also wasn’t very physical
This is why he’s the Greatest corner of all time. His team mates would pick the ball and go backwards just to find 21 and give him the ball. That’s crazy man
for white people anything they cant do and see others do isnt smart, lmao, they should have keep their proud fat mouths shut, and after the TD they still have the guts to say that it was 2 of the stupidest plays .... seriously they must not know how rugby works and how the pass back is a great tool durrr ...
Y’all are dumb, they said it was dumb because they could just down it and end the game. The fact that they were returning it and throwing it back was risky as they could accidentally fumble and turn it over, giving the other team a chance to score and win, taking the other team to the playoffs.
when2033comesyouaredone holy shit not everything is about race they could have lost the game by not downing the ball so even if they scored it was an unnecessary risk that’s why it was idiotic
They could’ve downed and ended the game, if they missed the lateral the other team could’ve returned it for a touchdown so it was indeed a stupid play that just happened to work
Thats so untrue. Stupid things can work, doesnt mean they aren't stupid. That was a boneheaded play, but that's the type of stuff you turned on the tv to watch Deion for. Flashy and incredible
@@CleanMusicLover229 My father was a big Charlie Ward fan. However, I recall that he played only professional basketball. My father thought he could have been better at football.
Deion always blew me away with his speed. It never looked like he was ever running his fastest, but it was more than fast enough to burn everyone who was on the field with him. Absolute legend, absolutely deserving of his spot in the Hall of Fame!
"When you get 21 on your team, you win." Lol He said he had to make wr's look open, so the qb would even throw his way. Everyone knows he was, and still is, the 🐐
Lol this is funny and I remember playing Madden on like All-Pro level and I always play Corner or Safety, Whenever I’m in Man I always gave the receiver an extra bit of space so he looks open which tricks the CPU QB into throwing to him, Not knowing the whole time I’m ready to pick it off lol Primetime really playing Madden in real life lol
I wish Deion knew what it meant to me to watch his first punt for a touchdown. I was 10 years old and sitting in Fulton County Stadium. It was the first time I went to a game. The impression he left on me was epic. He was my childhood hero and will always be my favorite player. The 92 season was the most fun I've ever had watching football. I have nothing but love for the man who started my love for the game.
I was so excited to see him play live on tv for the first time. then I learned that teams refused to throw to his side of the field. one a lateral for a yard. eventually, I was surprised when they actually threw at him again. pick 6. fucking epic. talk about domination. it was surreal to see a team completely ignore one side of the field and become crippled in their playcalling.
Bro hit over .300 in the World Series. If Atlanta had won that year he would probably of had a MLB World Series MVP to go with his NFL Super Bowl rings. Was it .330?
He really is. But think about this Bo Jackson is the only Pro athlete to be an All Star in 2 pro sports. Football and baseball. Deion didn’t achieve that
Sanders is an example of a high profile loud mouth player who usually backed up what he said but has also done a great job of growing as a person through the years. These are some fantastic highlights. 1996 was a very interesting and in some respects probably one of the hardest years for him as he spent a LOT of time at WR and CB to the point that i've seen some games from that season where he looks totally wiped out on the sidelines.
Typical of white guys to refer to talkative Black men as loudmouths, a derogatory reference when it comes from Caucasians. Just because Deon didn't walk around speechless and humbly quiet, like most white, average-playing footballers are, doesn't mean he should be insulted because he ain;t like them. We are not the same, as white ppl like to say about both races. Its ben proven that white children like Mr. Rodgers Neighborhood for its laid back lessons, while Black children like Electric Company for its quick-paced lessons and energy. Y'all invented symphony music, with its rigid, stick to the script music style. We invented Jazz, with its zig-zagging rhythms and improvisation on the spot music style. Deon is Jazz. White footballers are Symphonies.
Deion was my absolute favorite player growing up. Man, he was so damn fast. And not just fast, he had insane acceleration. You could see him just turn it on and he'd be gone.
That dude was something else! Fast, quick, smart, great ball skills, a defensive back that actually caught the ball when it hit his hands! The footwork and moves. Straight talent 👏🏽
his years in SF he was the most dominant defensive player in the NFL, it was crazy how he influenced a game. Those were his best years, he was so good, a CB has never been better than that.
I didnt know that , imagine if they kept them both and brought in a ace running back they would have had a team. But I think Brett Favre sucked until he got around Mike McCarthy is why they got rid of him
he was behind qb chris miller. glanville was the coach. Brett was late to meetings and hungover so they sent him to the packers. hall of famer in cheesehead land... falcons fans are bitter.
Omg are you serious, I must be too young to have known this. But Atlanta omg they have to be regretting that to this day. Like what more would you need, if I were making atl choices back then, they both would've gotten the AZ cards Larry Fitzgerald treatment, giving out lifetime contracts, your here until retirement. I don't really understand why he played for four teams that's four bad choices. Also for some reason I don't remember Deion playing for Tampa at all before I saw this vid,how many seasons did he give Tampa? If anyone knows.
At 2:05 When Jerry Granville said “I hope he dances 3 times a game”. I couldn’t stop laughing 😂 Primetime really used to score in so many different ways it’s remarkable
Deion Sanders cornerback kickoff return punt return wide receiver Atlanta Falcons from 1989 through 1993 era primetime Neon Deion out of Florida State my favorite Falcons player
2 of the things I love most about Prime is that Bobby Bowden said that he's the hardest working player he ever coached and that he loves being a teammate! I hope that all the people that thought he was selfish a bad teammate and didn't tackle have learned that those things were never true!
This dude was the top of the top with all the best temptations in the world and vices and he didn't drink or do drugs and rarely used curse words. That in itself is amazing. And lets not talk about playing football and the a baseball game in the world series on the same day. Like what!??!!?
His swagger was years ahead of his generation! 🔥🔥🔥His athleticism & the way he played was all a result of who he was as a person and how he came up from the struggle! 💯
Zeus Deuce deion was a stride runner each stride covered so much distance like a gazelle where as tyreek legs are kicking at 100 mph chopping the turf up with his cleats to get his speed LOL
Dion Sanders is the best ATHLETE to ever grace the planet. Offense, Defense, Special Teams in football. Outfielder, Batter, Base Runner in baseball. There will never be another athlete like Dion!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sports is ultimately entertainment, this man was simply entertaining and a joy to watch. As a 9er fan I'll always be grateful for his 94 season with us
As a Falcons fan, I'm glad I wasn't alive to see Deion leave Atl and then stare down the entire Falcons players and coaches while dancing into the endzone off a pick-6... Bittersweet watching that, but Primetime is my favorite player ever. He is the DB that every other DB wants to be. Top 5 player oat imo.
One of the TOP 3 athletes I've EVER scene in my lifetime. ....and he was the reason behind the phrase "LOCKDOWN corner" No analyst was using that PRIOR to Sanders domination of NFL WR's. Never get tired of watching Prime-Time highlights
Its a mini documentary they did on jalen that kind of lets you know why he is the way he is. His older brother says hes been that way his whole life used to be the smallest guy with the biggest mouth but works just as hard to back it up. Like him or not hes about as close as youre going to get to Deion. He's actually a great guy off the field and one of the few db's who is a true db he can play everything in the secondary.
Man played 88 snaps, then flew to New York to play for the Yankees the same day! Best athlete to ever live
Bo Jackson begs to differ
Him and Bo for sure.
He also did that when he played for the falcons and the braves several times

Nobody haven't done it since and baseball at the same time.. Dude was a beast.

Deion didn’t just play baseball. He was an MLB starter and all-star. Context is everything.

That dude was something else! Fast, quick, smart, great ball skills, a defensive back that actually caught the ball when it hit his hands! The footwork and moves. Straight talent 👏🏽
Deion opponents were on rookie mode while he was on ALL-MADDEN 🐐🔒💯
👍💥👍

“ It’s Monday night football and it’s Deion Sanders what else is new “
God bless Deion Sanders for playing football
Prime Time showed up every Sunday, that boy was cold......
his years in SF he was the most dominant defensive player in the NFL, it was crazy how he influenced a game. Those were his best years, he was so good, a CB has never been better than that.
Cap champ bailey was that and its a few others he was great tho
@@mucleboy0151 shut up please… champ was my guy but please stop
Don't forget that Atlanta drafted Deion Sanders and Brett Favre and let them both go.
I didnt know that , imagine if they kept them both and brought in a ace running back they would have had a team. But I think Brett Favre sucked until he got around Mike McCarthy is why they got rid of him
Anouar Serhani-Eltobgi classic Falcons
he was behind qb chris miller. glanville was the coach. Brett was late to meetings and hungover so they sent him to the packers. hall of famer in cheesehead land... falcons fans are bitter.
Atlanta falcons were the modern day bengals when it came to decision making LOL
Omg are you serious, I must be too young to have known this. But Atlanta omg they have to be regretting that to this day. Like what more would you need, if I were making atl choices back then, they both would've gotten the AZ cards Larry Fitzgerald treatment, giving out lifetime contracts, your here until retirement. I don't really understand why he played for four teams that's four bad choices. Also for some reason I don't remember Deion playing for Tampa at all before I saw this vid,how many seasons did he give Tampa? If anyone knows.
Wow, just wow! Deion not only deserves the name "PrimeTime" but was a joy to watch
I love Deion so much. He changed the game in many ways
At 2:05 When Jerry Granville said “I hope he dances 3 times a game”. I couldn’t stop laughing 😂 Primetime really used to score in so many different ways it’s remarkable
The swagger Deion had was unparalleled. Fire for the entire team.

Deion had the greatest separation speed in the history of the game. No contest...
Facts. That's because he never used his full speed unless it was necessary but when you see it you're like 👀 😮
2 of the things I love most about Prime is that Bobby Bowden said that he's the hardest working player he ever coached and that he loves being a teammate! I hope that all the people that thought he was selfish a bad teammate and didn't tackle have learned that those things were never true!
When your performance backs up,your mouth that’s the difference between confidence and cockiness...best cornerback ever....the g.o.a.t
“Gucci watch, a bunch of money or a gold chain” 😂
Give me a bunch of money so I buy both the GUCCI watch and the gold chain
MarloSoBalJr Gaming@ smart
To this day we’ve never seen anyone that could run like Deion, Tyreek fast but this guy was different.
he runs so fast that he makes the other players look like they are running in slow motion
Coach Prime, every recruit should watch this. Absolute legendary.
Who in the world would give a thumbs down?
Deion is one of the greatest. Thumbs Up all the way.
I could watch this once a day seven days a week.🐐
Imagine- Ed Reed, Ray Lewis, Suggs and Deion Sanders on one team🤣
Don't forget about Rod Woodson
isn't that Madden ultimate team?
Man thats what i said too....daaamnnn
That would be like: Lebron, Kawhi, Paul George and Anthony Davis being on the same team.
Marquis De Sade
I know. I can’t believe they didn’t.
In Primes prime they would have.
They actually even had a QB that yr too.
This dude was the top of the top with all the best temptations in the world and vices and he didn't drink or do drugs and rarely used curse words. That in itself is amazing. And lets not talk about playing football and the a baseball game in the world series on the same day. Like what!??!!?
I miss players doing the ladderal after an interception. Others may disagree.
Jeremy Simmons can u not do it anymore
Lateral
same bro
@@plzifna1979 technically yes but people don't do it because they're too afraid
Ravens were probably the last team to do it.
I watched this guy's whole time in the NFL. He was unreal.
His swagger was years ahead of his generation! 🔥🔥🔥His athleticism & the way he played was all a result of who he was as a person and how he came up from the struggle! 💯
Man, Atlanta Deion was so light on his feet he could run on snow without leaving footprints.
Probably the only DB to be an NFL Superstar! And that's without even looking at his crazy stats!
Sanders was the baddest man alive who ever played at corner
I like how even when he's celebrating, he's faster than pretty much everyone.
to those too young to have seen this guy live, yes, he was really *that* much faster than everyone else. It was INSANE
To this day we’ve never seen anyone that could run like Deion, Tyreek fast but this guy was different.
Zeus Deuce Darryl green?
Darrel Green was fast but he didn’t glide like Deion
Chris Johnson?
Zeus Deuce deion was a stride runner each stride covered so much distance like a gazelle where as tyreek legs are kicking at 100 mph chopping the turf up with his cleats to get his speed LOL
Nall Tyreek faster for sure but Deion no slack. Deion will tell you that him self lol
94 49ers is my favorite Roster of all time. That team was loaded.
Agree, no way that team could be set up with todays salary cap.
2 loaded broke my heart when they beat the cowboys 38-28 SMH lol
The Dallas team of that time was much better
@@SignalCorps1 why'd they lose
@@sfgoldside2789 fr
Dion Sanders is the best ATHLETE to ever grace the planet. Offense, Defense, Special Teams in football. Outfielder, Batter, Base Runner in baseball. There will never be another athlete like Dion!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Maybe you could take 3 seconds of your life to learn how to spell his name, dummy.
Sports is ultimately entertainment, this man was simply entertaining and a joy to watch. As a 9er fan I'll always be grateful for his 94 season with us
As a Falcons fan, I'm glad I wasn't alive to see Deion leave Atl and then stare down the entire Falcons players and coaches while dancing into the endzone off a pick-6... Bittersweet watching that, but Primetime is my favorite player ever. He is the DB that every other DB wants to be. Top 5 player oat imo.
My homeboy prime showed me how to wear two rolexes at one time!
Imma shine til I die!
Best CB of all-time
One of the TOP 3 athletes I've EVER scene in my lifetime. ....and he was the reason behind the phrase "LOCKDOWN corner" No analyst was using that PRIOR to Sanders domination of NFL WR's. Never get tired of watching Prime-Time highlights
He came in the league and before he played his first game, he knew he was gonna be an all time great. Legend.
Deion Sanders=LEGEND. One of the GREATEST football players to ever embrace the sport.
Back when football was actually enjoyable
person guy back when people were killing themselves for the game. Like iron mike
I still love football and find it very enjoyable.
Our Saints are trying to bring this back
@@montrellwtf my chiefs trying to but wit that defense nvm
ikr now its hard for DBs to do much cause the get flag for touching the wr
This man is unreal!!!!!
Man’s ability to accelerate and decelerate at those speeds is a marvel.
This is who Jalen Ramsey thinks he is.
not even close
Its a mini documentary they did on jalen that kind of lets you know why he is the way he is. His older brother says hes been that way his whole life used to be the smallest guy with the biggest mouth but works just as hard to back it up. Like him or not hes about as close as youre going to get to Deion. He's actually a great guy off the field and one of the few db's who is a true db he can play everything in the secondary.
PT _ but jalen is a great player u cant take anything away from him he puts it all on the line and he can back up wat he says
@@GunninWithBubba
Nigga went to FSU. Shit crazy.
Who's Jalen Ramsey??
It's only three athletes in my lifetime Prime that would love to meet Deion Sanders Barry Sanders and Bo Jackson thank you for the highlights in love
Who else came here after watching Stephen A say Primetime is the greatest of all time?
Me
👌🏾👌🏾
Facts
Had no choice. It was already recommended to me by YT before that episode of First Take ended. 😂😂🤣
The vid was the first thing in my recommended after watching Stephen A.
One of my favorite sports players of all time. He’s excelling as a head coach as well. Keep striving Coach Prime.
