A career retrospective of one of the greatest tight ends in NFL history, Shannon Sharpe. Follow BLITZ Instagram: / blitz Imagery supplied by Getty Images
He was phenomenal. He was fast, and he was a mismatch nightmare for defenses. He held all of the tight end records when he retired. If he was young and could still play today, I think he'd still dominate.
@@topnotchtajmahal7216 by him being 225lbs a little light for a TE but running a 4.8 too slow to be at WR is the reason he was drafted in the 7th rd but he made himself into a HOF'amer
My dad has had season tickets for over 30 years. As a kid, I went to the games and everyone had their #7 Elway jerseys. Getting my first jersey was a big deal to me back then, and I went with #84 Sharpe. I've loved that guy for practically my entire life.
I am South African, and don’t have depth knowledge of American Football, but this was so engaging that I’m planning to learn more about the game. Great presentation indeed. 👌
He is regarded as one of the greatest tight ends of all time! He is also a commentary and a football analyst who have worked his way through the years. He was the first tight end to surpassed over 10,000 receiving yards in his career.
@@screwdriverman5-kf2ui Tony G didn't play with scrub QBs his entire career. He had Trent Green (one of the most underrated QBs ever) for 6 years, Matt Ryan for 5 years, and started his career off with Elvis Grbac and Rich Gannon.
Terrell Davis is not talked about enough. Their first SB season he rushed for 1750 yards. The next season he rushed for 2008 yards. That team was electric! I loved watching them when I was a kid.
Soooo happy to see Young Sharpe. It's sooo weird how almost no one knew him from his HOF days, but now, he has become so popular and and most people know him from Undisputed
@@statechamp3465 probably older than you. I just don't get about American football and know him from Undisputed talking about basketball. Always heard he was good but it's just cool to see Young Shannon
Dude Shannon Sharpe isn't famous from Undisputed, he got that gig because he was already famous from his playing days and they needed a marquee name to help them compete with First Take for viewers. He was legitimately one of the biggest names in the sport at his peak.
@@josephmelendez8370people watch undisputed all over the world. He was famous in the US but from undisputed and now with club shay Shay he is known worldwide
Shay Shay is my all time number one favorite Denver Bronco. Always has been, always will be. He walked the walk and he talked the dang talk too. Listening to that Man all these years has been a gift, Thank you Mr. Sharpe, thank you very much!
nowadays, Broncos are full of JAGs. back then, we had MEN. opposing Defenses saw names like Elway, Sharpe, Davis, Smith and McCaffrey and were scared. our guys walked around with confidence and swagger. not no more, not no more.
@@ShuckyDucky09 Shannon Sharpe's own words: "My big brother, Sterling, I’m the only player of 267 men that’s walked through this building to my left that can honestly say this: I’m the only pro football player that’s in the Hall of Fame, and the second best player in my own family. If fate had dealt you a different hand, there is no question, no question in my mind we would have been the first brothers to be elected to the Hall of Fame."
I first saw shannon on Undisputed afew years ago and learnt that he was a great nfl player before... seeing this video makes me appreciate him even more... Hes a phenomenal athlete and even bigger tv personality and business man now...
I dont even understand how the game is played or scored but a story of struggle and adversity leading to success through sheer hard work and determination is something i will always cheer. I know him coz i watch basketball and him and skip were one of my fav analysts to watch coz of all the drama and stuff
This doc was phenomenal! Im 33 and knew he was great but had no idea of the journey! Everything from his brother playing in the NFL before him then breaking his neck then him winning his first SB with John Elway against (Brett Favre and) the team his brother would've still been playing for is deep. I also had no clue he was apart of the team that won The Ravens their first Super Bowl. Today we know him as 'Unc' but this was like learning about your real uncle's life when you were a kid lol...amazing
Ok and whats your point? I dont watch every single thing he has ever talked about but I do admire him. Just shut up and let people enjoy things. @@JamaalDaGreatest
@@JamaalDaGreatest I'm from Australia so we don't get American sports shows on our TV also I never really watched the NFL more an NBA fan. This was all new info to me Been getting into the NFL more and more
I love Shannon Sharp! I don't think the Broncos win a Super Bowl without him. He was like having a third wide receiver in there, and no linebacker could cover him. Every team has to have a motor mouth and Shannon was it! But he always backed up his trash talk with stellar play and a likeable goofiness! Those 96'-98' teams were homegrown w/o much free agency. Rod Smith was undrafted, and Terrell Davis was a 6th rounder. Thank you Broncos!
@@bagtea I fully agree. Even now he considers his brother a better football player than him. The way he talks about his bro, Shannon don't have 3 rings by himself. He and his brother have 3 rings.
Glad someone is finally making a vid about his HoF career. First started following him when he was with prick bayless on FS1 and he was hilarious in just about every episode. I love watching him on TV & his podcast. Undisputed will never be the same without him & Jenny
When he retired he was the all time leader for a TE in TDs , Receptions , and receiving yards , he paved the way for TEs like Gonzalez, Gates, Gronk, Kelce etc , oh and he has 3 Super bowl rings with 2 teams and was a team captain for all 3 rings
I wasn't initially a fan of his because of how much trash he would talked but he was one of the only reasons the Ravens made it to the Superbowl. They had almost no other offense. Was really good
@@poindextertunesJamal was still raw. He’s gonna get you those ugly yards but Shannon was scoring damn near all their points. People just don’t get how horrible dilfer was
@@TheDCGuitar13CASUAL. But the BS. Shannon wasn’t “scoring damn near all their points”. Can’t stand liars, embellishers, etc. Shannon doesn’t even need to correct you- but he has before. ONE GLANCE at stats or footage tells the clear story. Their running game was prime. Primary offensive reason. Obviously a great all-time D. Then a conservative, disciplined passing game. NOT Shannon scoring damn near all their points 🚫🧠
Shannon Sharpe is one of the greatest TE's to ever play the game. As a Bronco fan that suffered through some tough seasons since the early 70's, it was Sharpe that was the most clutch player not named John Elway.
@@MeLoNHeAd00 Yeah, sometimes I think he's the best and then I remember watching guys like Tony Gonzalez, Antonio Gates and Mike Ditka, etc., etc.. I'm just being honest, I've been a Bronco fan for over 50 years but you have to recognize some of these other guys that played TE as well. Shannon Sharpe is definitely one of the best though.
I respectfully disagree with that comment when you're talking about a tight end who restructured the tight end position as single-handedly help to change how professional offensive football is played so when you take that plus the speed the height and time 3xSuper Bowl champ,multi Pro Bowler first ballot Hall of Famer he has set records in the NFL that still has not been broken in my opinion he is the greatest tight end to ever play professional Collegiate football show me another tight end that play professional football from 91 to 99 that was more electric than Shannon Sharpe on the field
The fact that he had that much success on a team that had two nice wr and a great rb shows how good he was he would’ve killed in todays game too fast and strong
Yeah Shannon Sharpe was the greatest not only with his athletic ability but also an acrobatic tight end. His movements is as sharpe and smooth as a symphony and cascading waterfall. He is the greatest of all time.
He and his brother are arguably the most athletic family duo ever. They didn’t mention they both benched over 500 and Sterling used to lift with the D line. Between speed and strength they were both Demi gods
Shannon gave his older brother Sterling (who retired because of injuries) some ultimate flowers during his HoF speech. Something like: "I'm the only player in the NFL Hall of Fame, who wasn't the best football player in his family."
One thing i would like to see improved in these "how good was he really" videos (and this is acroos all channels) is more of how good they actually were. This was a good video but it seemed likenit was 90% Broncos history with some Shannon stats sprinkled in. I would like more of how he was measuring up compared to ther tight ends, who were the guys that could argue they were better than him at his position? What strenghts and weaknesses separated them? He was one of the first and best receiving tight ends in a time where tight ends were expected to block a lot, how did he measure up with receivers? Stuff like that
Heck, he wasn’t even the best receiver in his own family! Seriously, though, he was very good indeed. A modern comp would be Mark Andrews. Big, strong, precise, reliable.
He was dependable and always clutch. He was always 1 of the guys you never had to worry about. He was always going to show up. Was never selfish. He always laid it out on the line for the team. He's my 3rd favorite Bronco of All-Time. He's the GOAT TE. The only thing I disagree with him is his LeBron takes. LOL!
THIS is why it was EXCRUCIATING to see him have to “bow down” to Skip’s bs. Shannon is a Player PLAYER! His takes are based on not just an athlete’s perspective, but that of a Great! And all Skip has is “I’ve been covering sports since i was in college”.
Shannon was a master at getting into the other teams head! Nobody talked trash like Shannon and backed it up! It was like the Incredible Hulk playing Tight end! I was Steelers fan who became huge fan of both Shannon and Sterling! Sterling was only just hitting his prime he was poetry in motion
Shannon was a top 5 TE who could just take a game over Amanda of pure class character and Integrity Geat media personality ! I think Shannon oils be an absolute perfect fit to be the next NFL Commisioner so intelligent and effective communicator knows where players are coming from and would be the best NFL Commisioner ever can bring all sides together working as one and making the product we see on the field 100% better I can’t think of another person with his qualifications for the job!! I would love too see this happen !
Just imagine the numbers he would put up if he played in todays era where the rules are very towards offense. In his time, the defense was allowed to be extremely physical. Very well made video Blitz!
Honestly facts. Considering era, run first offense, and how he was the first te to ever be a number 1 receiver on his team. I have him number 1, but l can see why others don’t
Nah to people who actually watch him play back in the day, he absolutely was a force in his first 3 years after his sophomore season and absolutely dipped the rest of his career. Not calling him mid not calling him great. Just good
Good enough to be top 5 TE all time and good enough to change the way TE play and are covered for ever he diversified and changed the position of TE for ever so thank you Shannon for not only being the player your were but the person you are not gonna lie sports casting wouldn’t be the same without you to so thx uncle Shannon for everything you have done on and off the field.
He was phenomenal. He was fast, and he was a mismatch nightmare for defenses. He held all of the tight end records when he retired. If he was young and could still play today, I think he'd still dominate.
He wasn't fast but he was effective

@@Tone22845 faxx most linebacker and safeties can't cover so it's easy to get open with route savvy u don't need to be super fast
I truly loved when Shannon said in his HOF speech " I'm the first person in the HOF and I'm not even best player in my own family"
Awe
I cried like a baby when he spoke about and to Sterling. Shannon’s HOF speech is one of the Top 5 HOF speeches ever if not higher.
Deion’s is really good also. I was in my car during a lunch break and was straight up in tears listening to it
Sterling Sharpe is better thats why
@@BoxingLegends2024well yeah no shit but his neck injury caused him to retire
THE definition of a Hall of Famer, someone who changed the way the position is played, and with the records to go along.
That's a fact!!!! That's why I was pist when Devin Hester didn't get in as a first ballot
And before alot of the concussion and safety rules of todays game
Shannon grabbed all those yards on a Running Team. He is incredible.
Best comment today!
@@a.m.m.4592 yep
Repent and believe in the Gospel. Unless you repent you will all likewise perish. - Luke 13:3
I keep telling people this. He played behind two 2,000 yard rushers so he was never the primary option. He is under-appreciated today.
As the #1 passing option
My dad has had season tickets for over 30 years. As a kid, I went to the games and everyone had their #7 Elway jerseys. Getting my first jersey was a big deal to me back then, and I went with #84 Sharpe. I've loved that guy for practically my entire life.
Nice
Dope
Would you suck him bro?
Sus lol jk that's a pretty cool memory
Good for you buddy.
This video was well written,edited,narrated and produced. Hats off.
I was going to say that but instead I will just like your comment. 🎯🎯🎯🎯

@@mduduzigama5534this channel and the nonstop sports channel has me hooked on the nfl and nba videos.
Shannon and Sterling's story is amazing, an inspiration. Shannon is one of the most entertaining and knowledgeable sports analyst on television.
One of the *ANALYSTS, not analyst
He is regarded as one of the greatest tight ends of all time! He is also a commentary and a football analyst who have worked his way through the years. He was the first tight end to surpassed over 10,000 receiving yards in his career.
Amen
Good bot.

In my opinion Shannon Sharpe is the greatest tight end to play at the pro Collegiate level
Watching this after unc got freaky on ig live
😂😂😂
😂😭
If this comment wasn’t here I was gonna leave it myself 😂😂😂
With Michelle 😂😂
hahahahahahahaha
Damn unc changed the league…he ran so gronk, Kelce, and gates can walk
The prototype for the modern era
It's the other way around haha.
Tony Gonzalez: 😢
@@josephmother2659yeah Tony Gonzalez is better and is still the best TE to ever play. Guy never had a QB and has almost every record

True pioneer of the TE position
Sharpe crawled so Gronk could run
“We were so poor we had to rob the Robber"Dam he is my inspiration
Crazy the robber probably tried talking his way out
It's like the call an ambulance meme lol
Terrell Davis is not talked about enough. Their first SB season he rushed for 1750 yards. The next season he rushed for 2008 yards. That team was electric! I loved watching them when I was a kid.
TD isn't talked about enough? What?
What do you mean? This is a video about sharpe. Not TD.. you talk about the superbowl broncos, TD is always in the discussion why they’re were great
The greatest TE in history. He retired as the best ever, and had revolutionised the game both offensively and defensively.
@HoloWitchgronk is not the greatest stop it .
Black people can't admit it lmao @@Savvage.875
@xxxxMondaysxxxx Stop trolling 😂😂
@xxxxMondaysxxxxUnc was always reliable n didn’t have the goat n won without John elway
Gronk came at the right time,,, gronk isnt greater than sharpe...during sharpes time te wasnt used like gronks time thus lesser stats
This video was so well produced! I knew Unk was a beast back in the day but this video really put it into perspective. Unk is the GOAT!

Not only was he an awesome Tight end, he is a class act. Great guy.
This is such an inspiration, never heard of Stirling Sharpe until this video!
Going over 1000 yards as a TE was unheard of in the 90's. Shannon really changed the TE position from a third option to a primary one.
This was an awesome video. Thanks for creating this!
Glad someone is finally making a vid about his HoF career. First started following him when he was with prick bayless on FS1 and he was hilarious in just about every episode. I love watching him on TV & his podcast. Undisputed will never be the same without him & Jenny

Shannon gave his older brother Sterling (who retired because of injuries) some ultimate flowers during his HoF speech. Something like:

I think Shannon oils be an absolute perfect fit to be the next NFL Commisioner so intelligent and effective communicator knows where players are coming from and would be the best NFL Commisioner ever can bring all sides together working as one and making the product we see on the field 100% better I can’t think of another person with his qualifications for the job!! I would love too see this happen !
Facts
He’s a hall of famer. Enough said.
Just imagine the numbers he would put up if he played in todays era where the rules are very towards offense. In his time, the defense was allowed to be extremely physical. Very well made video Blitz!
Sharpe is the best tightend ever.
Honestly facts. Considering era, run first offense, and how he was the first te to ever be a number 1 receiver on his team. I have him number 1, but l can see why others don’t
Nah to people who actually watch him play back in the day, he absolutely was a force in his first 3 years after his sophomore season and absolutely dipped the rest of his career. Not calling him mid not calling him great. Just good
Only Michelle can answer that question😂
Amazing comment 🤣
They both are dynamite TE Shannon was my favorite because I was a broncos fan along with Elway was my favorite QB in the 90s
Only Skip doesn’t know how great he was
Living legend. Much respect to this dude, you gotta love em.
Shannon Sharpe has the heart ❤️ of a Lion 🦁
Good enough to be top 5 TE all time and good enough to change the way TE play and are covered for ever he diversified and changed the position of TE for ever so thank you Shannon for not only being the player your were but the person you are not gonna lie sports casting wouldn’t be the same without you to so thx uncle Shannon for everything you have done on and off the field.
