I loved seeing the tackles this man made. I would cringe sometimes at the fierceness of his hits. But he was not a dirty player. His hits were clean and when he hit a player, they knew who hit them without seeing who it was.
Eric Dickerson was interviewed and was asked about Ronnie and said " every time we broke the huddle I wanted to know where he was at" That was the kind of respect Ronnie had earned.
Ronnie Lott was the greatest and toughest ever one of my favorite 49ers players all-time I absolutely loved watching him play he was a Warrior on the field there will never ever be no play like # 42 on the 49ers defense Ronnie lott was the heart and soul of that until
Great strategy combining Eastern philosophy/strategies/ martial art n applying it to sports. Very resourceful on Ronnie Lott's part. It's no wonder he was a great football player ! Kudos for video.
He was my all time favorite from my Niners Defense....I wore that number 42 and tried playing like him in my balling days. He was bad ass, none can play like him. Some might remind us of him but only for a play or two. He was all in every week and year
@@rgrey I know its you're own opinion but you're on drugs. When Tom Brady and Bill Belicheck BOTH simultaneously identify Reed as the GOAT safety the argument is closed. Ed Reed is the best safety in NFL history.
And it aint cause they are soft your in the nfl for a reason its the rules i understand the concussions i get that but change the catch rule and let defenses run wild
We all know Ronnie Lott was great but ummm who TF was that @ 1:41 she was bad I will amputate my current relationship for her like Lott amputated his finger😂🤷🏾♂️
Honestly not really. He led with the shoulder and waited for the receiver to make contact with the ball. He didn’t hit many of those players in the head. I honestly don’t think most if not all those hits aren’t legal still

When it comes to defensive backs, I always call Lott "the Godfather". Others will debate on whether Ed Reed or Troy Polamalu is the true GOAT at the safety position, but even as a Ravens fan (with a very pro-Reed bias for obvious reasons), if you ask me who is the GOAT of defensive backs in general, Lott is my answer. Lott also played at corner, something that neither Reed nor Polamalu did, which gives Lott a major edge in this particular debate.
You might not believe me but Ronnie Lott is my 3 cuz don’t believe idc he’s my grandma cuz my grandmas name is Bobby Lott and my dads name is dwaynne lott and I’m Titus lott trust me
It’s not soft or sad for the game, it’s better for the players. They don’t play to die so early or to have serious Brian damage. Calling this sad makes you sad cuz you disrespect every other player who stepped away from the game because of CTE or died because of it.
Ronnie Lott decked people his entire career

Such an underrated coverage free safety

Yeah that’s crazy asf. Major d riding

Ronnie is amazing
Lott was a beast in the 80s.
Super talent.
Ronnie Lott tackles are LOUD
Imagine seeing him coming at you...
That kick to deflect the ball away from the receiver was insane
He was my all time favorite from my Niners Defense....I wore that number 42 and tried playing like him in my balling days. He was bad ass, none can play like him. Some might remind us of him but only for a play or two. He was all in every week and year
Greatest defensive back in NFL history.
Ronnie was a beast. Loved seeing him become a monster on the field then become spiritual and collective off the field. A great inspiration!
The man had 63 interceptions as well. Top 10 all time!
There is a reason why 1980's pads in the NFL were huge compared to today. lmao.
Ronnie Lott, Kenny Easley, and Ed Reed are the 3 greatest safeties I've ever seen.
Agree with Lott and Easly. Easily my Top 2 as well. Reed was great but I'd put Atwater over him and Jack Tatum a notch below Reed.
@@rgrey I know its you're own opinion but you're on drugs. When Tom Brady and Bill Belicheck BOTH simultaneously identify Reed as the GOAT safety the argument is closed. Ed Reed is the best safety in NFL history.
Sucks watching videos like this when you know players aren't even allowed to play the same way
And it aint cause they are soft your in the nfl for a reason its the rules i understand the concussions i get that but change the catch rule and let defenses run wild
They can still hit in a lot of ways. A lot of these hits were still clean.
Not gonna lie a lot of his hits in this video are still legal today
Those hits were so clean , they would be legal today or forever really .
Master Chung helped Ronnie see things beyond the physical. The mind is the most powerful weapon.
best safety ever it's a shame he wouldn't be able to play in today's game because of his playing style.
He was intelligent enough to adapt
He was a human legion of boom
Bruh they had jerry on one side of the ball and Ronnie on the other. The 49ers were terrifying back then
For as vicious of a hitter that he is remembered as a lot of the tackles in this video would have been clean in todays game.
My favorite safety a beast on the football field.
I grew up watching greats like Lott, Lawrence Taylor, Prime Time Sanders, Rice, Montana etc. Today's NFL ain't got nothin' on that era.
Thank you, but we need at least 30 more minutes of length to this video!
Need him on micd up

A man that cuts off his finger and plays is a real man!!!
The reason why I wore number 42 in football and why I became safety.
Ronnie Lott had a season ending injury but chose to amputate that problem to play football. Can’t beat that I wouldn’t lose a finger over my job
Do more about Ronnie Lott please
And his jersey-number is the meaning of life
Great content
How did this turn out to be a motivational video😂. Sensei Lott
Nfl dropping bangers
Who amputates their finger for football, that’s how dedicated he is!
Lott and bam-bam would be nasty to see. So would Lott/Dawkins or Lott/Atwater.
Ronnie.

I recommend watching Ronnie Lott a football life.
Thats his daughter i think
@@B-Mag Yeah she had a relationship with Leonard Williams from the Giants, Bailey or Hailey was her name idk.
Be careful what you say that’s his daughter lol don’t want Ronnie busting down your door
@@sto1238 LOL
Coliseum mindset💪🏾
taking quotes from the blade i see
Technically Ronnie Lott had 72 career interceptions if you include playoffs.
Sad thing is, all of those hits are illegal now
Honestly not really. He led with the shoulder and waited for the receiver to make contact with the ball. He didn’t hit many of those players in the head. I honestly don’t think most if not all those hits aren’t legal still
This is giving me some technoblade flashbacks...
All you need to know is he amputated part of his finger just to get back into a game. The ultimate competitor.
Ronnie
Lot
Most of ronnies tackles would be flagged or fined now a days smh
You can’t play like this anymore though. Sad!

Glad the 49ers have a few good things left this year has been a rough one
Ronnie Lott is more known as a raider
Amazing Safety but if you think he tackled the hardest you're mistaken that goes to Rodney Harrison
Rodney Harrison😂 Ronnie Lott GOAT safety and the godfather of the safety position.
Rodney Harrison is on record saying that Ronnie Lott was his idol...lol
When it comes to defensive backs, I always call Lott "the Godfather". Others will debate on whether Ed Reed or Troy Polamalu is the true GOAT at the safety position, but even as a Ravens fan (with a very pro-Reed bias for obvious reasons), if you ask me who is the GOAT of defensive backs in general, Lott is my answer.

whyd i think of technoblade when sun tzu got brought up
Flag....2 seconds later ...another flag....2 seconds later .....flag. Lott wouldn't last 10 minutes in today's NFL without being fined into retirement
Will NEVER be another literally half the hits he's known for are illegal in today's game.
Wide receivers today would not survive to live another day in that era.
He’d be ejected for helmet hits every single game nowadays.
And war damn eagle
*Sun Tzu dies*
Ronnie Lott:It is my time to shine
And I got this from Technoblade not the video
Man look like footballs Mike tyson
If Ronnie Lott played today, he'd be called a dirty player.

They're not showing his real highlights. If ya know ya know.

Ronnie Lott was a good corner but he was made to play safety. He would be taken out in todays NFL because he would be flagged all the time.
no politics please
If he played in today’s game he would get suspended all the time how hard he hits because the NFL is soft as charmin
Most of the hits were clean just HARD.
@@jalenad11 I know that’s why the league today is soft because even clean hits today are flagged
The NFL doesn't care about Defensive Football no more
compare to this nfl is so soft now,its sad for the game
