If you could get any one running back to run behind our line, who would it be?

[Zekeats]

I am not sure if we played this game already but if you could choose any one past/present who would you go with? My guy would actually be Terrell Davis. I think he would fit perfectly as most would but his running style from his best years would be a pleasure to watch behind this line.

Emmitt

Oh, come on. The guy's 46 years old. I doubt he'd do better than a 4.2 ypa and 1300 yards behind this line at his age.

Adrian Peterson

Im tempted to say Brown or Payton but go with what you know

I'd like to see either Adrain Peterson or Barry Sanders.
Both guys have home run ability. I have always been amazed by watching both run. Something about Sanders legs and cutting ability combined with his speed.
Peterson is a powerful, fast horse that is also a threat to go the distance everytime he touches the ball.

I believe the fear these guys strike in a defense is what makes the run game so effective in setting up play action passes.

I feel like he is the best talent to ever play that position.

Are you not understanding the question was "past or present". Of course I'm not going with 46 year old Emmitt, I'm going with him in his prime.

Gale Sayers before the knee injury.

I'd rather have Murray back.

I still think this was a huge mistake. Why fix something that wasn't broke? Especially since the team could afford him.

You're going to stir up the hornets nest. I see the swarm approaching.

Oh, btw...

Earl Campbell - teams would beg us to pass just to make the pain stop.
