I'd say Jack Tatum. I mean his nickname was "Assassain" for God's sake and he paralyzed a guy.

Based on looks alone, I'd go with 80s-early 90s Jack Tatum...but as soon as he opened his mouth to talk he became far less intimidating.

No one mentioned Jerome Bettis or Earl Campbell in their day.

Can you imagine being 5'11" 200 lb cornerback who looks up and sees either one of those two clearing the line of scrimmage with a full head of steam - and knowing that you've got to dive in there and stop them?

If I'm a chick I actually find this more intimidating that Tiger or Ben. Those guys are sex-aholics, this chick is not only athletically superior but just plain better looking that me too. And that is what intimidates chicks.



But in all seriousness this conversation begins and ends with this guy.

Butkus and Tatum.
