Could Dexter Lawrence successfully bull-rushed Larry Allen

CMicks3110 : 6/3/2024 9:21 pm
in light of LA's passing, and seeing the highlight video of Sexy Sexy from earlier, I put two and two together and wanted to hear opinions. LA is obviously the best of the best, but in my 27 or so years of watching football I can't remember a more powerful DT than DL. Curious, if there was anyone that could, would Dexter be the guy that could have potentially bulrushed Larry Allen for a sack?

Larry Allen could bench press two of him.
No way

Larry Allen was beyond great.
Not sure anyone other than Larry Allen

This is correct. Really with just about every guy he matches up with, it's about technique, not brute strength.

Yes he would have won some of them.

Even the best (LT) lost once in a while.
Larry Allen played Guard

I recall Reggie White tossing him aside like a rag doll early in his career when he played RT. But the minister did that to everyone.
