Nearly identical career numbers? Maybe Junior getting some sympathy votes for his tragic death?

It does show how subjective any voted in awards can be at times.

Looks to me like Seau had 18 fumble recoveries, and the meme, made by a girl, is wrong.

Yes there appears to be something screwy with the numbers or the meme was done by a Matthews' family friend.

Still the real numbers are nearly identical.

For most of their careers yes......and numbers can be influenced by teams, schemes, who's next to you all of that. The specific numbers are just a guide.

Still i think the body of work on both are close enough to seriously consider Clay anytime now.

Furious Styles

Ken "the Rattler" Riley. Cornerback

Former FL A&M Quarterback

65 interceptions. 5th best ALL TIME .

5 Touchdowns.
