| 0:00.0 | I love you guys when you do this. |
| 0:04.2 | So many suggestions here on the greatest defensive duos, two of the greatest players together |
| 0:12.3 | on one team in NFL history, which is what may be possible in Los Angeles if Aaron |
| 0:19.2 | Donald returns and joins Miles Garrett on defense. |
| 0:24.7 | But there's no doubt that Max got the one that is comparable, and that would be Ray |
| 0:31.6 | Lewis, Ed Reed on the same defense for the Ravens. I mentioned Paige and Eller and Mienjo Green and either Lambert or Ham. |
| 0:41.6 | Several of you mentioned that, but this from Earl, Earl writes, Kevin, you got the two |
| 0:48.1 | best of the 70s, but you missed the two others from that era that are right there. |

| 1:33.6 | defensive line. Page, you know, Alan Page was an NFL MVP. I believe I have this right, |
| 1:40.9 | that L.T, Lawrence Taylor, and Alan Page are the only two defensive players to |
| 1:46.0 | ever be named NFL MVP. Look that up for me, Max. I'm pretty sure that's true. Going back to |
| 1:53.3 | the first year where Jim Brown, I think, was the first named NFL MVP, but I think Alan Page |
