I know he is the best defensive player, possibly best plyer and you know he is. What the writer is saying IMO is that your average Joe 6 Pac fan think that the best is obviously Mahomes or Rogers or Burrows or Chase or any other glamour position is the best. The author rightfully so IMO is stating that #99 is so much better then anyone in his position it does not qualify comparison. he is a once in a lifetime and just saying he is all pro sells him short. I agree, you name another football player in the last 30 years that had been so much more dominant in his position? Closest I can come to is LT no one else. #99 is underrated until he is known as the most dominant interior Dlineman of all time, if not defensive player
