Cribbs has 3 more career KO TD returns then Hester does.

Dante Hall 2.

Brian Mithcell has over 10,000 more career return yards then Hester. He's 2nd all time in NFL history for all purpose yards.

Josh Cribbs has near 4,000 more career return yards.

All of Hester's Return TDs

11 minutes long with no replays. He never had the Dante Hall joystick return, but he does a great job of finding the lane and exploding through it.

No.

Hester is good at what he does, but his career total for TDs is the same as Kevin Faulk. Faulk also has about 6K more total yards.

Hester has been super-human for about 6 to 9 games in his career.

Below average for the other 120-plus.

It's a legitimate point.

Say what you want but teams had to game plan against Hester. The Bears had a distinction field position advantage bc of Hester.

Did Hester always return KOs or just situationally? Its easy to rack up return yds on KOs since the 1st 15 were essentially a given.
