Lol uh no 5 years in the NFL vs 12 years Pro Bowler and soon to be hall of famer Haloti Ngata.
Fuckin A, man.In Haloti's defense, and I'm not debating here, because there isn't one to be had, but it's not at all a fair comparison. Haloti was a 0 tech 2 gap 3-4 NT most downs. How many modern NFL HoFers are there at that position? Wilfork? Ted Washington? Stan was a wrecking ball who shot gaps and ran TE stunts, and he was a way better college football player, but Haloti was a better Virta Via.

I like defensive linemen who do both. This guy could stuff and hold the middle and get after the QB like a bitch. Better than store-bought donuts and Mormon Polys IMO.
At the 1:14 mark, All-Time Husky great Warren Moon says Stan Empterman couldn't hold Kennedy's jock, and Oregon's LDS Poly can't do his laundry. Doesn't get more definitive than that.
Some things to consider:
NFL Defensive Player of the Year (1992) (on a 2 win team)
3× First-team All-Pro (1992–1994)
2× Second-team All-Pro (1991, 1996)
8× Pro Bowl (1991–1996, 1998, 1999)
NFL 1990s All-Decade Team
PFWA All-Rookie Team (1990)
Seattle Seahawks Ring of Honor
Seattle Seahawks No. 96 retired
2× National champion (1987, 1989)
Consensus All-American (1989)
Pro FB Hall of Fame
I saw him dunk a basketball
I don't recall where he played in college, but I don't think it was the Pac 10. Word is he wanted to be a Husky but didn't have the grades and was afraid of the competition.
I must have missed where Moon played against Stan in college.
You might have.
In any event, if you can’t trust Moon’s assessment, you can’t be a Real[/i] Dawg.
