billsfreak Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 Hanson by a country mile. Not even close. There probably aren't more than 2 or 3 DE's in Bills history better than Hanson, he was just overlooked because Bruce "DUI" Smith played on the other side.

BillsPride12 Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 Definately Hansen, but I will never forget that amazing hit Seals put on hostetler in Super Bowl 25 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nanker Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 A better - question - or at least a more even-sided one would have been Phil Hansen Vs. Art Still. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VJ91 Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 Agree about Seals (who averaged a shade under 3 sacks a season with the Bills). But not sure what you were trying to get at with Schobel, since he equalled Hansen's career sack total (61.5 sacks) in 98 games (6 seasons and 2 games) and surpassed him in his 99th game, while Hansen played 156 games over 11 seasons for the Bills. Well let me phrase it a different way for you then; It took Schobel 6 years and 2 games to go past Hansen's career sack totals. Sorry I said 6 or 7 years in my first post. I'll try to be more exact next time. But seriously folks, I understand that Schobel is a better end then Hanson was. And I understand it took Phil more seasons to get his 61.5 sacks. But until Schobel passed him, Hansen was number two behind Bruce. And Dr. Sackless was nothing more then a blip on the Bills DE radar screen for a few seasons.

VJ91 Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 Hanson, not even close. Outstanding avatar - I went to many Braves games as a teenager. With the Aud being torn down now, it seems like a hundred years ago that my family used to go from the Bills game on Sunday afternoon, right down to the Aud for the Sabs game that night. And then the Braves game sometime later in the week. Great times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
