Two greatest NFL running backs

Barry Sanders and Walter Payton, the two best NFL running backs to date. Watch the video and you'll agree. The song is White Zombie's "More human than human", it only seems fitting to use that song. Both made their mark in NFL history and will always be remembered for their running styles and on-field achievements.

Barry retired early, walking away from the game when he was not even one full season from breaking Payton's NFL all-time rushing mark. As a fan, I remember where I was when news broke. Emmitt Smith eventually broke the mark, but it took another 3.5 years. Barry is the measuring mark for tailbacks to follow.

The two runningbacks (Emmitt and Barry) sat down and the question was asked about who out of the two was the better runningback. Emmitt jumped up and said that hands down, Barry was. I can agree. Yes, Emmitt is the rushing leader. Look at the fat hogs he had blocking for him. Not to mention the rest of the offense, their quarterback. They had a complete team. Barry didn't have what Emmitt did and he still ran circles around NFL defenses. You could take Stephen Hawking, put him in a jersey and he'd have the same numbers as Emmitt w/that type of offensive line. The offensive line for Detroit was plagued with injuries and still Barry could produce.

Congratulations to the New England Patriots! Good luck in the Super Bowl and I hope that your team is able to win it all so the 1972 Dolphins WILL SHUT THE FUCK UP!!!

PS: To the 1972 Dolphins...when the Pats win, they don't join your club, they surpass your little club. So drink your champagne and be the only 17-0 team and tell yourselves how great you once were, but the Pats will be even more memorable

I found an online version of the 8 bit Tecmo Super Bowl a few days ago. I've been playing it steadily since. I had to play as the L.A. Raiders (now Oakland), I spanked Indy after knocking their quarterback out of the game early in the 1st quarter. I finished the season 16-0, those last few wins of the regular season were more difficult than the blowouts early on.

As I made my way through the playoffs, each game was more difficult, especially the AFC title game vs. Buffalo. Wouldn't you know it, I won by a field goal. Buffalo had the chance to tie the game and send it into overtime but the field goal went wide right. I guess they can't escape those wide left/right field goals when it comes to video games...HA!

The team finished with the league's best offense and defensive units, running back Bo Jackson had over 3,300 yards rushing and that's after enduring two injuries during the season and playoffs! What can I say? He's billy badass!
