The Dome Patrol: The Best Linebacker Corps in NFL History

The Dome Patrol was the nickname of the New Orleans Saints football team's linebacker corps of the late 1980s and the early 1990s. The Dome Patrol was rated by NFL Network as the #1 linebacker corps of all-time. They formed the second level of what is considered by many to be the most formidable 3--4 defense in National Football League history. The four linebackers made NFL history by collectively going to the Pro Bowl together in 1992. As a unit, all four players were on the Saints roster for seven seasons, from 1986-1992, combining for 18 Pro Bowls. All four linebackers were voted to the Pro Bowl in 1992. Its members were: OLB Rickey Jackson (#57) 1981-1993, 6 Pro Bowl Selections, all with Saints (1983, 1984, 1985, 1986, 1992, 1993) (Pro Football Hall of Fame) MLB Sam Mills (#51) 1986-1994, 5 Pro Bowl Selections, 4 with Saints (1987, 1988, 1991, 1992, 1996) MLB Vaughan Johnson (#53) 1986-1993, 4 Pro Bowl Selections, all with Saints (1989, 1990, 1991, 1992) OLB Pat Swilling (#56) 1986-1992, 5 Pro Bowl Selections, 4 with Saints (1989, 1990, 1991, 1992, 1993) (First Team All-Pro 1991, 1992) During the Dome Patrol's reign, the New Orleans Saints made four playoff appearances, including the franchise's first ever playoff appearance in 1987.
