They got Dorsett as the greatest Cowboys RB in history .
They at least got that right.

Here's another leave out:
Ricky Williams. Top 10 power/speed combo's of all time. I know, I know, he wigged out and went to smoke pot. I thought he was a moron also, until they found out he had been misdiagnosed and was on the wrong meds. Did you know, for instance, that Ricky Williams rushed for over 10,000 yds in his career? Most don't.
Earl Campbell is the best power back ever. Dude was a freak of nature. Should be discussed as top 5.
What's erb? Pot?Loved him. The erb, Ditka's trade and ensuing ESPN magazine cover with them both dressed in wedding clothes, are what hurt his legacy. If he didn't go to Canada for that short time, he'd probably be in the Hall. Erb cost him a lot of time and took a toll on his legacy. Still, a devastatingly great HB. He also did a lot of work to improve his hands as a receiving option, coming out of college
Yes.What's erb? Pot?
Ricky was misdiagnosed as a manic depressive, when he really simply had an anxiety disorder. He treated it w/ pot. He should be in the HOF anyway, esp since they put TO in.

Come on now!? Must be click bait crap right ?!
Emmitt is at least top 3. I’ll give people Barry and Payton. I don’t really agree with them. But I see their point.

Sanders, OJ, Brown, Payton, etc. were all more gifted football players. In terms of physical ability Emmitt definitely isn't one of tGOAT.
But his production unquestionably is
Watch these 2 plays they are almost identical
You cant address me? Lol If you're alluding to me, you then said I was "half right" after being "usually wrong"I was fortunate enough to be old enough to see Jim Brown
s final year and he was still devastating, A certain poster who is usually wrong talked about a watered down NFL when he played. He really only had his last three years that could be argued. When a tough old cob like Ray Nitske says Jim Brown was the greatest RB he ever played against or saw that pretty much takes anything that particular poster drivels and shoves it into the trash can where it belongs.
I personally find it hard to pick one RB as the best of all time. Bronco Nagurski was incredible in his time. Steve van Buren was something else. Marion Motley. Jim Taylor.
I watched Earl Campbell run over an ENTIRE DEFENSE on one play. Gale Sayers making everyone else on the field looking like they were in slo mo. One game OJ made the entire Steeler Defense at their best look incompetent.
I could go on but I think I made my point.
That is really the name of the game. And that applies across the board.The greatest ability is availability. Emmitt > all.
Whoa. Whipped out the "hoss".You cant address me? Lol If you're alluding to me, you then said I was "half right" after being "usually wrong"
Which is it, hoss?
You think the league had the same amount of talent in the 50s and 60s as it does now?
This article popped up on my facebook timeline also.
All the Emmitt bashers were using that tired old line about Emmitt had a great line to run behind.
As if acquiring talent omits Emmitt's accomplishments.
Nate Newton once said they were just a bunch of fat guys until Emmitt showed up.
Yeah, I think this is about to be a ten page **** measuring contest between Diefree666, his walker, and myselfWhoa. Whipped out the "hoss".
