Curt Sylvester, the Detroit Free Press Lions' beat writer, offers this list of the top NFL tough guys of the last twenty-five years. This was done in light of the Tony Siragusa/Joey Harrington comments and counter-comments.
An all-time list would be even more challenging. Mostly because it would be hard to only have a top 10. Dick Butkus, Doug Atkins, Mike Curtis, Sam Huff, Joe Schmidt, Chuck Bednarik, Pat Fischer (why is he not in the Hall of Fame?) would all have to be considered. Guys on Slyvester's list, like Lewis, Lambert, Taylor and Lott, would also be in the running for my all-time tough guy top ten.
