Extremely Rare Photo Of Emmitt & Barry Together

[Thomas82]

I was doing a search last night on Google and stumbled into this extremely rare postgame photo of Emmitt Smith and Barry Sanders together. The only pics you typically find of them together are from them at Pro Bowl practices in the early 90's and one in-game pic, and now mostly post retirement pics.

This is the very first photo I have ever seen of them together on the field in their team's uniform. I just thought this was too good not to share.

Emmitt > Barry

Barry was still epic, though...

I would rather have mike alstott leading earl campbell through the hole than face Barry Sanders

Atleast I know where mike and earl are and can get a hand on them

Barry on the other hand would juke you out of your underpants and the last thing I need the world to see is my underpants on the field

1997: Dallas vs. Jacksonville, Emmitt and Herschel both scored TDs for the same team on the same day.

Don't forget, Sanders quit on his team.

I live in his hometown about 5 miles away from the field that bears his name. Watched him in high school, and at OSU.

To this day and forever it will be Emmitt Smith > Barry Sanders.

Sad to see people still so insecure about Emmitt that they have to run down Barry Sanders in a thread where no one is trying to compare them.

My goodness what a man I do love some earl

However I’ll double it...I rather Larry Allen come first with allstott behind him leading earl

Sorry I rather deal with power than speed not saying earl was slow because he wasn’t

IDK Zeke and Barkley have the potential to be mentioned in the same light.

Was going to post that, those 2 have the potential.

Yep. The problem for them is, outside of Dallas no one really thinks Emmitt was better than Barry.

.

Megaton also quit on the Lions.

They Lions have been a mess since the 1950s.

I bet some lions fans today feel that way.

Emmitt couldn’t touch Barry’s moves. I’m a huge Emmitt fan but that’s just a total homer comment. Barry didn’t have the same O-line and retired early in his career or his numbers might’ve been better had he played as long as Emmitt.

Some of my fondest childhood memories, pissing contests.

Some people never grow out of it.

That would be a penalty on Earl today. Think he led with his helmet much?

I was lucky enough to be a 22 year old kid that was able to attend the 1992 NFC title game against the 49ers. I worked at Good Guys at the time while in colege, and was able to use a camera from the store and return it(i couldnt afford it) . I had ZERO experience with a camera, but I was lucky enoug to snap a picture of Emmitt just as he was crossing the goal line with hishand raised with the number 1. I have it framed in my man cave to this day. I was damn lucky to snap a pic of an iconic moment in Cowboys history!
