VIDEO: Let's All Enjoy Reggie White Tossing Cris Carter at Warren Moon One-Handed Like a Rag Doll
By Jerry Trotta
Who doesn't need a little throwback football highlight in their life every now and then? Lucky for you, we've stumbled across one that just so happens to feature three Hall of Famers. The Minnesota Vikings made the comical mistake of tasking stud wideout Cris Carter with the impossibly difficult responsibility of blocking Green Bay Packers star pass rusher Reggie White. How did the Minister of Defense respond? By launching Carter at Warren Moon's feet like a rag doll and bull-rushing the Vikings signal caller until refs were forced to blow the play dead.

My goodness.
White only used one hand and he still sent Carter, a 202-pound player in the freaking NFL, flying almost three yards in the air. If there was ever a highlight to summarize White's 15-year reign in the trenches, this is it.
The best part of it all? White and Carter had nothing but respect for one another. The two rivals shared a touching moment after the former suffered a sprained knee in a November game back in 1995.

That's what it's all about, folks. You have our permission to watch that highlight on a loop for the next couple of hours.
