    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!

    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.

      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

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
