I know there are folks who like to compare them and some say Ed Reed is by far and away the best. I always say Ed is like Walter Payton and Troy is Barry Sanders of defenses. Ronnie Lott was Jim Brown. Hard to compare or say either or are better or worse. Each dominated and each had a special "thing" of their own.
Ed Reed is awesome...to say different is just ignorant.
