Ed Reed or Troy Polamalu?

[Original Rookie]

Who ya got?

Only reason I like Polamalu is because he's a sure tackler. Ed Reed's obviously the bigger playmaker along with his return abilities. Tough decision but I'll take the best tackler in the league.

I'll take Troy as well. On open field tackling he is an :taz:

Let them run into each other until one can't stand up and I'll take the winner.

Reed. He'll score me way more points than Hair...

Based on that I think you have to go with Reed.

Ed Reed is possibly the greatest to ever play his position. While Polamalu is great, and a future HOFer, there's no comparison. Reeds hands down IMO.

Well, Sunday, Ed was awful.

Well, Sunday, Ed was awful.

 

Who do you think has had the better career thus far and who do you think will be the better player at the end of both careers???

[jvdfc]

Well, Sunday, Ed was awful.

 

And Troy was awesome last night.
