Roaf, post-knee surgery, disengages from his man and somehow slides over about 3-4 yards to put a shoulder on the MLB, redirecting him so that he misses Green by a hair...Green throws a TD pass to Kennison (i think)...that Roaf even saw him, much less blocked him is amazing

and in the playoff game against the Colts, Roaf simply humiliated Dwight Freeney (a possible hall of famer)...Roaf kicked his ass on every single ****ing snap and made it look easy, like when you put your hand on a child's head as he is swinging wildly at air to 'fight' you...

Roaf was amazing. Perfect combo of strength and agility. One of the best trades the Chiefs ever made.
