Lem was a beast but he wasn't on Deion level to be real breh. Top 10 CB though.

#20 in Detroit was a blessed number.
this dude played like a modern day DB. He was trying to take it to the house even deep from his own end zone.
this dude was Deion before Deion.
Yep. It's a special # indeed. I wish we had the team success to match some of our great player legacies, cause we got all timers that don't get quite the recognition they would if we won.

Megatron should've worn that #20
How wasnt he Deion level?
Dude had more ints in 40 less games.
Maybe because people didn't throw at Deion.

The video LITERALLY says "when the word gets out to stay away from a rookie's area of coverage, you know you have a special player" and you post this?

That maybe didn't exist in Lem's era?

So, are you telling me that QB's were as good at passing the ball during his era? As compared to Deion era?
Same for the receivers and advance offensive systems.
I'm just asking a question. No beef breh.

No....I said nothing that followed what you're saying.
I'm telling you that Lem was head and shoulders above every DB of his era in the same manner as Deion. I'm saying that he was ready to take the ball to the house with an arrogance of knowing he could do it similar to Deion.
I'm telling you that he ran it back and tossed the ball to the only breh in the stands.
Dude was smooth as fukk and was head and shoulders above everyone else in his era like Deion. Dudes were scared when he picked off the ball. He ran back 11 ints.
How would you compare him to your Jets great Revis Island?No....I said nothing that followed what you're saying.

Revis was great for as long as these new rules pro receiver rules allowed him to be.
Deion and Lem did it longer.
I honestly don't know how dudes play corner in this era.
Can't say I ever really saw many highlights of his until now.

Also, isn't it Lem Barney? I kept looking up "Len Barney" and all I got were results for some violinist.
