#1 Posted: 6/27/2012 12:51:15 PM I may be a biased Charger fan but this is what I think
1. Payton (best all around back ever, heart of a champion) 2. Brown (beast) 3. Sanders (quitter, but still the most talented RB ever) 4. Emmitt (faked injuries when team was losing, offensive line carried him, but his durability make him great) 5. LT (incredible back in his prime, but disappeared in the playoffs)
Honorable mention: Faulk, Dickerson, Earl Campbell, Thurman Thomas
Runningbacks who were overrated (never made you say "wow") include: Curtis Martin, Jerome Bettis

#2 Posted: 6/27/2012 8:13:49 PM LT at 5 is a huge bias. What about Gale Sayers, Earl Campbell, and OJ? |
