I have to put a premium on these four:
Barry Sanders
Walter Payton
Jim Brown
Erick Dickerson
Awesome stats, and avg yard per carry.
E. Smith just doesn't have the avg yard per carry stat even close...
Who knows what the history book would be like if each of these guys (excpetion of Payton) played day in day out...nevermind the luck of playing behind one of the greatest O-lines ever.
Sorry I wouldn't include backs like Terrel Davis. No way TD was going to contiune that pace, given the way he ran and the hits he took on a weekly basis. Injury was envitable.
Barry on the other hand...could have put 2 more 2k seasons together.
