He probably could have been the greatest ever if injuries didnt shorten his career. Or at least top 2 with Jerry and his madman work ethic. I've never in my lifetime see a receiver so impossible to cover, he could beat double and triple teams and come down with the ball more often than not.
+Hobo Jones Are you kidding? That Calvin Johnson long touchdown he damn near caught up to him. Also there is plenty of highlights of him being super athletic and faster than everybody else
It was like 60 yards and a touchdown on one play where Peterson thought it had been picked and stopped playing. Yeah it was a mistake by Peterson, but Johnson didn’t outplay him
@@toast1009 I could see that happening if somebody called banjo or if the play that they were running called for that but by the reaction of Patrick Peterson that wasn't how the play was supposed to go at all Patrick was on his man the entire time Tyrone only flipped his head when he saw the ball thrown it was man the man the whole way I understand what you're saying though but from the looks of this place that's not what it was called
It’s called a rub and when done correctly that in and out is near impossible to stop a complete pass guys . This coming from a wideout who played Z WR like Calvin #81 also Ayee . 🔥
CJ Geppert peterson stopped because he thought it had been intercepted Which is why it cant be counted as a td on him since he wasnt covering when he got it If you actually watched the game u would know peterson won this matchup just like in 2015 week 4 peterson owns megatron
Love Patrick Peterson as a player and now a person as well. Great player and athlete and had no clue he was as respectable as he is. And I'm a lions fan too! Great guy
This is what football is about. Two great players playing great and greatly respecting each other as they do it. Unlike Josh Norman and Odell Beckham jr.
Pat is the last of a dying breed... so many corners stay confined to one side nowadays... he’s chases the best player sideline to sideline... he gets beat from time to time but he makes some unbelievable plays as well... future HOFer
+v Fuse that was the most retarded thing you could've said about the chocolate bar. He had type 2 diabetes not type 1, maybe if you weren't so stupid you would know the difference. Hold this L.
I said this on a video regarding Andre Johnson and I was trolled for saying this. In the first few years few years of his career (2007-2010), Calvin was a solid receiver. From 2011-2015, Calvin Johnson put it all together and became and elite/hall of fame caliber receiver. To me, he had a similar career to that of Sandy Koufax.
I don't care what anyone says Calvin Johnson is the best and most dominant receiver of this generation. If he would've kept playing and been with a contender that didn't rely so much on him then his numbers would've been greater. In my opinion Antonio brown comes second because they actually have and always had other playmakers around him that drew attention from opposing offenses, the teams Calvin Johnson has been on not so much. Still can't believe how he just up and retired like that.
Stafford deserves more credit for those throws on the touchdowns. Put the ball in perfect stride & the fade only where Calvin could catch it. Calvin also dropped 3 passes this game.
my best friends old coach played in the NFL and would get NFL jerseys from his favorite players after the game. he even was lucky enough to get Joe Montanas jersey
Calvin one of the best WR's of all-time much love
Love how humble he is
Bobby Sweet
BobbySweat probably the best he retired after 10
He would've broke so many more records if the Lions released him
He probably could have been the greatest ever if injuries didnt shorten his career. Or at least top 2 with Jerry and his madman work ethic.
I've never in my lifetime see a receiver so impossible to cover, he could beat double and triple teams and come down with the ball more often than not.
Much more mature than Odell vs. Norman
+Tank Dempsey both elite matchups tho
Top Ten Favorites Norman elite psh these two are legends
Rivalry games are more fun to watch
Some guys you can trash talk. Megatron is not one of those guys or he drops 250 yards on you
What even happened to Peterson? He’s like totally irrelevant right now
love peterson, hes just a respectable player.
“They really shut down Calvin Johnson”
You’re telling me 2 TD’s is “shutting down?!” Come on man 😂
Bout to comment the exact same thing even tho I’m 3 years late..
Oddly enough you only saw it yesterday and yet here we are lmao
They shut him down 2nd half
For Calvin Johnson, 2 TDs is being shut down lol
Perry Marks that’s what I was thinking
Thats what my receivers told me in franchise....
Love the respeck
On his name of course.
Right
Respek*
kur👺
Good spelling
Calvin: 6 receptions 116 yards 2 TDs. Guess that's getting "shut down"
2nd half
+Jonathan Lopez that's even worse
That big play wasn't his fault
+Hobo Jones Are you kidding? That Calvin Johnson long touchdown he damn near caught up to him. Also there is plenty of highlights of him being super athletic and faster than everybody else
+T3rminata T hobo is right tho..... if u dont know u have it u think ur fine hence him thinking he could catch him
That respect at the end tho...
Respek
Video from three years ago popping up in my recommended... I love TH-cam
But I’m still here so I shouldn’t complain
same bro lmao
Because the cards and lions play week 1
Same
Two TDs and 100+ yards. Calvin clearly won this battle but Peterson held his ground very well.
It's a team sports. Patrick won the game
He's saying that Johnson won the battle between the CB and WR.
Cb is one of the hardest positions tho
Isn't Calvin like 6'5 vs like ah 6'2 corner
It was like 60 yards and a touchdown on one play where Peterson thought it had been picked and stopped playing. Yeah it was a mistake by Peterson, but Johnson didn’t outplay him
this is what the NFL is about pure respect between two players battling out for 60 minutes. #gohawks
Thats sportsmanship at its finest.
Isnt it crazy how many people will fight over these athletes meanwhile they are asking for each others game jerseys, Hope in humanity restored lol
Maria White s
Because they got nothing better to do with there lives after the game,
The respect between such great athletes is great to see.
@1:22 Damn, he caught that ball and was gone. Seeing it from that angle really shows NFL athletes true speed.
Such a good Respek toward a legend
I know the honey badger was thinking I was doing my job you're the one that let him score
They ran into each other in the end zone lmao. Even with the height difference they shoulda traded off
@@toast1009 I could see that happening if somebody called banjo or if the play that they were running called for that but by the reaction of Patrick Peterson that wasn't how the play was supposed to go at all Patrick was on his man the entire time Tyrone only flipped his head when he saw the ball thrown it was man the man the whole way I understand what you're saying though but from the looks of this place that's not what it was called

@@abovenbeyondlimits81 no it's not you just have to have correct positioning. you go underneath the rub instead of over top
A-rob Is Beast clearly not if you’re here rn not doing anything
Ima miss you Calvin 😩
3:20 they shutdown Megatron yet he had a 80 yard slant touchdown, and a redzone touchdown? Ok.
2nd half
Are you dumb what do you think will happen if Patrick wasn't defending Calvin Much worst the Cardinals would of lost that game
***** That made you loose all credibility. Calvin is barely top 10 all time, never will EVER be better then Randy moss.
Lol and had 6 catches for 119 tds and 2tds
madden cheese
I like seeing players respect each other the way they do, makes the game so much better
shut down Calvin Johnson? he had two TDs tho.
Yep
he had one on peterson thats it in the second half calvin was completely shutdowm
Kakashi Hatake 2
Durk the first one wasnt on peterson
CJ Geppert peterson stopped because he thought it had been intercepted
Which is why it cant be counted as a td on him since he wasnt covering when he got it
If you actually watched the game u would know peterson won this matchup just like in 2015 week 4 peterson owns megatron
I was so upset when megatron retired so early. The same now with Andrew luck
Megatron, Barry Sanders.....Detroit is where all stars go to waste away their careers on a losing team.
@@deadreckoning6288 megatron is still top 3 wr of all time
Calvin was a man among boys
2 TDs and 116 yards would be a very good game for any other WR. For Calvin, that's considered getting shut down.
Handle business on the field but all love after the game. Gotta love good sportsmanship, much respect.
Calvin: o I want your jersey to
Gotta love the respect
Did anyone notice at 1:58 he said that same thing in madden 16 opening
Yazz! Good catch memories
That's where they got it from
The end. Respect.
Respeck*
RESPEK
+Gilbert Garcia y respek not respect
I really do love Patrick Peterson, he's such a leader, uses clean language, and accepts responsibility for failure and success!
legendary...
Can't stop Megatron.
Love Patrick Peterson as a player and now a person as well. Great player and athlete and had no clue he was as respectable as he is. And I'm a lions fan too! Great guy
much respect. that's how football should be
Everyone bringing up old stuff 3 years ago lol
Respect to these two future hall of famers!
i love seeing great sportsmanship
is this a megatron highlight video?

No

I thought ur pic was a hair on my screen and tried to blow it off

2:29 #25 is a hater lmao you can tell he don’t fw wit P2 😂😂😂
That’s jerraud powers, that’s just how he is 😂😂
I’ve never really seen how big Calvin is until now. This guy is massive. Imagine being 6”5 240 running like that😬😬
This is what football is about. Two great players playing great and greatly respecting each other as they do it. Unlike Josh Norman and Odell Beckham jr.
calvin you will be missed, thanks for carrying us all the way and through the hard times :) #legend
I’m finna cry all over again; WTF! 😩 why Calvin have to retire
Respect and competition at its peak .
Please come back to the league...it needs you now more than ever. Sorry we took you for granted. #Greatness
Calvin n Peterson r the best match up
Pat is the last of a dying breed... so many corners stay confined to one side nowadays... he’s chases the best player sideline to sideline... he gets beat from time to time but he makes some unbelievable plays as well... future HOFer
I miss Calvin Johnson so much imagine if he was on our team now with a MVP caliber qb we would make the superbowl
No matter what Megatron did, he couldn't outscore what the Lion's defense gave up
Imagine two greats appreciating each other. This a great video
Mega respect for all CBs 🔥🔥 ..my favorite position to watch while watching a game
I love this guys energy and confidence lol
I love the respect man
Lol now you know how he got his Ultimate Freeze or Out of Position Cards at MUT
Pat Pete qb lol
kwsrchoudhury madden 18 right?
I love these two miss u Calvin (this is coming from a packers fan)
That's true respect.
This is why I like Patrick Peterson he respects his opponents a stand up dude
Real greatness
Here after all tha smoke 💨
damn megaron is massive
Two consummate pros. Love seeing the game played like this
Two legends
3:20 “they really shut down Calvin Johnson” 2 tds
Pat Pete Vs Julio Jones Mic'd Up coming soon?
Lol
+bigpoppaswank ready to see it happen again this year too
Jesus Christ do people still not realise he had diabetes and thats why he wasnt that good?
v Fuse I can't wait for P2 to shut down Julio this season to shut people like you up.
+v Fuse that was the most retarded thing you could've said about the chocolate bar. He had type 2 diabetes not type 1, maybe if you weren't so stupid you would know the difference. Hold this L.
I miss Calvin so much and I am a Packers fan
I miss Megatron
prime megatron maybe the best wr ever
Prime Randy moss is better
@@ericflores4407 Everyone has an opinion
@@hollywoodagenda7881 and that's my opinion
Eric Flores Randy Moss was only a deep threat. Megatron is the complete package. Dude excels in run blocking, obsession catches, deep threat, etc...
@@troynaval4526 True, But I should have said that prime Megatron isn't the best ever, I mean he's like top 10
Jesus bruh he gets to have a lot fun throwing defending and running routes
My man said “we can’t give up the big play” after giving up 2 td’s😂
First td wasn’t his fault it was clearly the person infront of megatron who should’ve picked that off
@@yashiomendez4034 Ik but it’s still funny lol
Megatron is gone now sniff sniff...#onepride fml
foreal he retired
I'm going to miss this macthup
Miss calvin johnson. I named my dog after him a week after he broke jerry rice record.
1:24 but damn does Patrick have burners tho
I was at this game watching the matchup. God damn it was fun to watch
love players that have respest
Love seeing this.... 2 HoFers respectful not hating
Calvin Johnson was fast ash
Miss these days
I remember watching this
No one can guard Calvin Johnson one on one besides Richard Sherman cuz he's actually done it
“The cardinals shut down Calvin Johnson and the cardinals offense”...last time I checked 100+ yards and 2 TDs isn’t shutting someone down
How'd he get shut down he has 2 TD's and 116 yards
Pat Pete did his job only allowed that one fade in the end zone but that’s a hard job to stop other td wasnt his fault
the Big Megatron ! 😉
This just shows how good Megatron is
Come back Calvin you could’ve been the 🐐
He is the 🐐
It's about to go down
Good videos
Rise up Red Sea!
He didn't lockdown Calvin Johnson, but he covered him well enough to prevent him from getting open with the game on the line
Imagine trying to defend a WR that runs a 4.4 40 yard dash that could be used as Undersized Power Forward in the NBA. That's crazy.
My favorite player my twin
Calvin really ran away from Patrick Peterson though 👀👀
The man was 6’5 240!! 🐐🐐
Class personified match-up ! The opposite of OBJ vs Norman.
If Calvin Johnson had 2 TD's and under 150 yds, he was probably having a bad day. Especially if he played against a human being.
best man ever
2 TDs 116 yards and only 6 receptions is shutting down Calvin I guess. He usually got that in 1 quarter LOL
all u guys are talking trash but this is from 3 years ago so he was in his third or second season hes really good now and I'm not even a Cardinals fan
He was good then it's just that everyone loves megaton
I haven't seen any one who doesn't respect him, he's a great
+Mr. Predictable megatrons good but give cbs some cred

Shut down my arse
Megatron burned him for 80 yards
had like 30 fantasy pts
100+yards and 2td's
Patrick P.E.D.erson
When he lines up at wr😂😂
