Kirby Lee-USA TODAY Sports
Former Atlanta falcons running back jamal anderson went nfl network"s "Good Morning Football" television show and praised Khalil Mack saying the Raiders DE/OLB is a mirror image of Hall of Famer Lawrence Taylor.
Taylor was one of the most feared defenders to ever play in the NFL
Anderson who is a native of Los Angeles grew up a Raiders fan got into the Mack conversation after speaking highly of the new Raiders offensive system and what a great job coach Jack Del Rio was doing. It was then he switched his focus to the all-pro Mack saying:
How good is Khalil Mack? Man . . . Oh, my heavens. G*d . . . to me, I hesitate to say this, because of what Lawrence Taylor meant to the game and who he is, but woo, youre starting to deal with that. Just how dominant he is as a defensive presence and what he means for them on that side of the ball. I mean . . . hes outstanding, Anderson said.
Mack has accumulated 28 sacks in his young career and his work ethic will push that number up pretty fast

That"s a BOLD statement in my opinion because LT dominated the game from beginning to end! Khalil Mack does have a vast array of moves that"s makes it extremely hard for lineman to block him. He has speed, strength, vision and awareness of a 10 year veteran rather than a player in just his third season.
Mack has time on his side and some teammates that can help him reach the level of greatness that is LT like and in the end I think he will get there without any doubt.
