Hardest Hitters in Cowboys History

[Wixie]

Hands-down, not even close is James “Drive By” Washington…. for you youngsters that never saw this guy play go back and watch some tape, hardest hitter we ever had.

Roy would be illegal today. Back then, he was taking manhood's.

Young Roy was on another level. Great 3-5 year run.

Also, Scott Case had one of the best hitting games I've seen in superbowl XXX against the steelers. He was making Pittsburgh receivers earn it.

Clock shouldn't have stopped

Dat Nguyen

 

[Zekeats]

Randall Godgrey

I would say Roy, but Woody gave a Seahawk reciever Darrel Jackson a siezure.

 

[Jarv]

Too Tall absolutely crushed people and he was a Boxer!

 

[HeavyBarrel]

Roy and I think definitively. That NFL East with Roy Williams and Sean Taylor was just nasty.

My favorite non Dallas play ever is Sean Taylor blowing up Brian Moorman (I think) in the Pro Bowl

I remember that well. He wasn’t playing around.

I looooved Darren Woodson’s physical play - standing over the crushed bodies of his victims. But Roy Williams? He was a missile in cleats. Just a devastating hitter.

Here Comes The BOOOM! (See YouTube video).

1. Randy White
2. Roy Williams
3. Darren Woodson
4. Cliff Harris (Captain Crash)
5. Eugene "The Hitting Machine" Lockhart
6. Bill Bates

 

[CowboyChris]

currently its Donovan Wilson

Roy Williams gets my vote for all time best hitter

 

[conner01]

We’ve had some really hard hitting players. But safeties generally get the hardest hits because they have a running start and the are colliding with a player running in their direction. Roy was a heat seeking middle back there

 

[doomsday808]

Roy before the horse collar rule. Ken Norton jr.

 

[doomsday808]

Dat Nguyen doesn't get enough repsect. Marion the Barbarian.

 

[JoeKing]

in your opinion who was the hardest hitters in Cowboys History?
Woody?Roy? Bates?

Why would any of our opinions matter about this? None of us has ever been hit by any of these gentlemen so what do we know about who hits the hardest? All were said to be hard hitters but we still don't personally qualify to have an objective opinion.

Nobody wanted to get hit by Cliff Harris.

Randy White's nickname was the Manster for a reason.

Harvey "Too Mean" Martin? You can say that when it comes to rule changes to protect the quarterback, he was the inspiration.

Mean Gene "the Hitting Machine", the nickname given to Eugene Lockhart, was earned by his punishing hits. He became the first rookie in Cowboys history to start at MLB as a rookie. in 6 out of 7 seasons he had over a hundred tackles. In 1989 he set a new club record and led the NFL in tackles with 222 including 154 solo tackles.

Roy Williams was also the inspiration for rule changes. He brought the wood.

 

[diamonddelts]

Jeff Heath and no, i'm not joking.

Lmao. Only if getting ran over by Adrian Peterson counts as a hard hitter.

 

[diamonddelts]

Can't leave out a special mention for George Teague...

Nein.
