On a national level, however, I would suggest that he is somewhat underrated.

That defense, regardless of his other flaws as a run stuffer and in coverage, fed off his enthusiasm and emotion. And even though Marty and the DC had to cover his flaws, there was no one better in backside pursuit in the run game. I have often said that Gunther did more to contain DT than any OC.

I dont find it a crime, or in any way impugning Thomas or my Chiefs fandom to say... Houston > Thomas, atleast so far.
There are some longevity issues at play here, but otherwise I'll hold to that take... if Houston stays here and continues on this arc, he'll be #1 all time in Arrowhead. |

He had 35 or 36 interceptions, and was an absolute beast against the run. Houston has a long way to go before he matches Bell's overall productivity, and I just don't think he gets there.

We should be celebrating all of our stud LB's. Derrick Thomas is my favorite. 90% of that has to do with the fact I grew up in the 90's. It's ok for us to have differences in opinions on this subject, but some of the ass clowns on here bashing our HOF players just to prove that their opinion is the "right opinion" , is just ****ing reeruned. |

Houston isn't a a Hall of Famer yet. Not even close. He's got a long way to go before I even start to compare him to guys like DT and Bell. Longevity is a big part of what makes a player great.

DTs sack numbers dropped after Gunther came to KC.

Considering that my first Christmas on earth was the day of the Chief's loss to Miami in OT. . . .
