Best RB of all time?

[Vols520]

I used to love watching him run. Look up the definition of a battering ram and you'll see a picture of Earl Campbell.

If he couldn't get around you, he was going to do his best to run you over and a lot of times he did.

He played so hard he can't really walk anymore.

Yeah I saw the special that CBS did on him a couple of years ago and he didn't look good at all. He's definitely paid a high price for sacrificing his body back then.

Jim Brown.

Head and shoulders above the rest.

Only because Barry Sanders was 5' 9"

had Bum Phillips not destroyed him, he would be in the middle of all the GOAT conversations.

You aren't sure how anybody could argue anybody else was better?

I don't know how anybody could argue that u are not worst poster in this board.

It's called an opinion, and in my opinion he was better than anyone else. You don't have to like it or respect it.

Barry was on another level.

I like Barry, but not best of all time.

Nobody like him, before or since.

Yes there have been.

Brown had every bit of agility, relative to the players of his time, and far greater size and strength.

Brown loses points though for being such a bad actor.

 

[milohimself]

You're lying to yourself if you weren't riveted by his performance in Mars Attacks!.

 

[TrueOrange]

Cedric Benson is the best RB to ever put on the pads.

-10

 

[volinbham]

Johnnie Jones - he had that wiggle

Apparently you forget the greatness that was "I'm gonna git you sucka"

I've tried to forget, but I keep having these recurring nightmares.

The Jim Brown people on here make strong arguments. But I still go Barry b/c he's my guy. I've always been a passive NFL fan, but I LOVED me some Barry Sanders.

 

[txvolsfangatorh8r]

gotta be between sanders and dickerson

 

[iuvol2012]

1) Barry Sanders
2a) Eric Dickerson
2b) Jim Brown

Just my two cents.

Good list.

He was brilliant in "The Dirty Dozen", but he loses points for being unable to successfully waste Telly Savalas early on in that movie.

Emmitt

Of my time I guess I should say. Didn't see many others. Jamal was the most productive during my time, but obviously not the best. LT?

 

[bamacheats]

Brian Darden. He was just misunderstood.
