James Harrison: Darth Vader

Harrison is one of the best to ever do it. He compiled 793 career tackles, 84.5 career sacks, 34 forced fumbles, and 8 interceptions. One of which has etched its memory in not only Steelers history, but in NFL history.

Like Vader, Harrison was not only feared by opposing teams but his own teammates generally tried to stay out of Harrison’s way. Just let the man do his thing and don’t get between him and his objective.

Also, both Vader and Harrison were great leaders. They take it upon themselves to put in the dirty work and are never afraid of a challenge.

While Vader was at the helm for one of the most powerful organizations in the Galaxy, Harrison took charge and lead his team to a super bowl championship. The similarities are uncanny.

Lastly, we have one of the younger players on the team who has shown his potential to be one of the best in the game.
