He might be the best player ever with the ball in his hands in the open field.
The people screaming about the fact that he’s in the Hall are stupid. Dude reinvented the game.
He also got me into the Bears, so there’s that.
No doubt about it.
Yes
A resounding yes
Devin Hester was special. He fell off in the second half of his career (after they literally changed the rules to stop him) but he could still pop off an insane return at any moment. No one else could do it like he did.
What kind of question is this? Who is even comparable?
Once he made that first cut, he was gone.
Yes, he was!
He also holds the return record so I say that speaks for itself.
Is Hester the best return man in history? I dunno…is water wet?
Does the Pope hate the Cubs?
How many returners are in the HOF?
You would be hard-pressed to name someone better
His vision, cuts and speed was unworldly. You’ll never see a returner again where you legit feel he has a strong chance of TD on a kick/punt return like we saw everytime Hester touched the ball.
Also, he wears number 23 for a reason….
Yes he is, and it’s not even close.
Not even a question. What always stood out to me rewatching these clips is the blocking, squad was full of demons. That era of defense deserved a chip too
AND it’s not even close. 1st ballot all day 🐻 👇
I lost my fucking mind when he ran back that SB opening kickoff. Shame we lost
Best to ever do it.
Does a Bear shit in the woods?
Hester had 20 touch downs on special teams. Next closest is 14. He is the GOAT for returns. Definitely deserves to be in the HoF.
He would be absolutely electric with these new kick off rules.
Can’t argue with results.
Why did this sentence begin with “is”, end with a question mark, and not have a comma after “Hester”?
He was one of a kind
Who’s better? 🤷🏻♂️
It just seemed like he accelerated faster than anyone I’ve ever seen. Like studder, studder, juke, 2 steps and full speed.
Yes
Not even a real debate
the detroit one is probably my favorite. the way he’s angling and sneaking thru people just looked so sweet
Yes but the song is just god awful.
It’s hard to fathom in today’s nfl the possibility of there being a player so good at that role that you literally aren’t allowed to punt or kickoff to the person without coin flipping a touch down lol
I used to love watching Hester, Cribbs and Hall highlights, Dwight was fun too
The Super Bowl return was the single greatest bears moment of my lifetime that I remember.
*Not old enough to remember 85
I don’t think people understood the level of “don’t kick to him”
Ya’ll didn’t even show the missed FG he returned like 101 yards against the Giants. Lol
Im still chasing the high he gave me watching him play
What a silly question.
You don’t need the first word in that sentence.
Yes
Not even close. Every return you felt like he might break it for a TD.
