RutgersJetFan Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 Always looked at him as a source of inspiration since I was a kid. Greene was the type of player and coach that always seemed to make everyone better through his own actions and calm demeanor. Dude was the man. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But he was 90. Greene was friggin' 58. Sad times for sure. I'm really sorry to hear that. My deepest condolences. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

playtowinthegame Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 17:53 I always remember this giving me goose bumps as a kid watching Inside the NFL highlights. Greene was a true warrior. Here is another one I found from Inside the NFL's Golden Years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
playtowinthegame Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 I remember this one game the Rams were playing the Saints I think on espn Sunday Night Football when that Rams receiver Willie Flipper Anderson set a record (336 yds) at the time for yards receiving. There was this point in the game the Saints had to go for it on 4th and short, and Greene looked like a missle hitting Saints running back Dalton Hilliard in the backfield. He was special man. He had the charisma of Ric Flair as well. RIP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
