With episode 16, I wanted to take a look at one of the more “overlooked” elite defenses in the NFL up in Minnesota. The Vikings are absolutely LOADED with talent on every single level of their defense, with perhaps the crown jewel of them all being their incredible young box safety, Harrison Smith. The fifth-year star plays a “do it all” role in Mike Zimmer’s pressure-filled defense, and as a result he’s often seen doing literally everything from enforcing his will down on the line of scrimmage, to covering slot receivers man to man, to even bracketing wideouts deep down field as a center fielder. With my beloved Texans slated to have an absolute brawl with Smith and company early in the season, there’s no better time to get acquainted with this ultra-talented beast that awaits them in week five.

Enjoy!

  1. Next Troy Polamalu that’s an emphatic NO !
    Troy is a once in a life time player who dominated the line of scrimmage from the secondary his instincts alone sets him a far from any other safety.

  2. Coolest most dangerous white boy in the NFL. Love his look and his swagger. He’s underrated in my opinion

  3. He’s not a Palamalu though but I like everything else you said! I’m a Steelers fan since 1972! I give Jamal Adams a year or two to be up there after he develops even more!

  4. If Walsh didn’t shank that FG against the Seahawks, or Peterson doesn’t fumble(again), I think the vikes woulda gone to the Super Bowl in 2015. Their D was hot and teddy was pretty decent at extending plays

  5. Harrison smith is hus own person no next nothing if anything he play the game. Like john lynch if anything troy was not a big bitter he stops the run real good like john lynch troy was a cover guy a goood blitzee but harrison smith closes gaps real good

  6. They don't call him hit man Harry for nothing lol 😂 he is a awesome safety and a true football player all around, if you look up football player in the dictionary you should see a picture of Harrison Smith 😉

  7. Harrison is the most underrated player in the NFL. Been the best safety for the last 6-8 years. Great video.

  8. They fired Zimmer when they could have kept him as defensive coordinator and we could have still had the evil genius mind
