During the Chiefs’ glory days, they always had active safeties, players that could deliver a hit. Players like Lloyd Burruss and Deron Cherry were ferocious hitters. Burress loved to drop his shoulder and level running backs that found their way into the secondary. Cherry met them head on. Nobody will ever forget the pop that Deron Cherry laid on Bo Jackson during the 1987 season.
Somebody needs to remind the author that the time period in which Deron Cherry and Lloyd Burruss played was anything BUT the "glory days".
