Jim brown looked so happy I could tell deep in his soul he is so happy that emit acknowledged him right away
Dolphins 2021🔥 he really was genuinely happy. Very nice to see that in such a Great.
Jim Brown deserves the plaudits; he was a phenom....
His personal life has prevented him from getting the wider recognition his talents deserved. He's also been politically controversial, both as a civil rights advocate & later as a conservative. He's talked of his disappointment of not being invited to the White House by the 1st black president. His history of domestic violence is serious, but while not condoning it, we should remember the effects of CTE.

Jim Brown saying “thanks man” after Emmitt Smith spoke of him warmed my soul
Jim brown and emmit smith have great respect for other players. For example they both have made comments on how much they respected walter payton.
dsnt say much about your soul
@@santaclause8095 I'm sorry that you're living such a sad life. Please seek help.
They could’ve ran 5 straight. Barry would’ve EASILY got 20k btw. His last season he rushed for 1,400, which was below average for him. 10 seasons, 10 pro bowls.
Mine too ❣️
Emmitt Smith is real. "If Barry hadn't retired, he would've been the 1st 20,000 yard rusher".
That's called respect. And recognition 👍
@@perryellis1423 yup. Most probably wouldn't never mentioned it.. Makes me like Emmitt even more
I’ve been one of Barry Sanders’ biggest fans since the beginning! Always hated Emmitt cuz of the competition and rivalry! But at the end I appreciated Emmiitt more and became a fan of him as well because of his honesty and his humility and true appreciation of Barry and all the other great backs of all time! Class act!
Easily. Nobody was better. To me. I watched both. Whole careers. Every time they were on. As a 49er fan, of course I had to hate Emmitt. But I knew he was a great player. Barry to me was just better. Better in every way. Jim Brown was the toughest. Payton was a man with a million ways to beat you. And, endured. ED was a flash in the pan but that was a helluva flash and pan. I still feel Barry was better than all those guys.
@@rubinturner8233 "better in every way". Not really. On 3rd and short there are probably 100 rbs I'd take over Sanders. He also couldn't close out a game the way Emmitt could. If the Cowboy's had the lead in the last 10 min it was gg. Hand the ball to Emmitt and let him close out the game with an 8 minute drive. Sanders would get his gains in chunks. He'd get shut down for a few series then break a couple 25 yarders and a 60 yarder for most of his yards on the day. Guess who has the most negative rushing plays in NFL history? And it's not even close. The same player who has the most negative rushing yards in NFL history. Is he the best pure runner I've ever seen? Yes. But is he better than Emmitt in every way? Not even close.
I remember playing in RB in middle school. I had 12 yard loss running left, right, and left again. Coach grabbed me by my facemask and said "there's only one Barry Sanders and you sure as hell ain't it kid" ... next day I was on the soccer team.
😂😂😂😂
Haha great story man!
😂😂
YOU TOO!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣, SAME practice I was a DB LMAO!!!
🤣🤣🤣
Today, 5/19/2023, Jim Brown passed away. Rest in peace to one of, if not the greatest RB of all time. Thank you for helping inspire countless RBs to strive for greatness and thus elevating the NFL. You must have felt wonderful knowing how great of a legacy you left behind
Literally watched this video because of his passing, such a legend in every sense of the word. The football community and so many more beyond that owe a great debt to the legendary Jim Brown. RIP Sir, You will reside on the mountain top forever, where you belong.
Rest well Mr.Brown
RIP Jim Brown
Maybe the best football player of all time.
Great actor to
Bill belicheck is like a little kid talking about these amazing running backs and just shows he actually does have feelings
3 legends present what a great vid
oh yea bill is a true historian of the league. he truly cares about the ones that have come before him and the ones that pave the way for the next generation
He been had feeling you must see what he saying the prisoners he amazing man
Belicheat. Wake the F up. Read some of the books, look at the espn report, everyone knows belicheats team is cheating. They are so far outside the standard deviation with many numbers its not possible without foul play. Wake up. The league cares about money. Not INTEGRITY
His dad was in Detriot Lions playing Fullback that he had special love for running backs
Barry Sanders joining the early 2000s Patriots is a terrifying thought
As a Barry fan and New England hater I'm torn.. he would have been *amazing* to watch in a team I hate
Ball Zack I don't think that Sanders would have done that.
@@dwightlove3704 he said that if they shipped him of to NE he would play two more years
@@parrot4541 won rings both years
@Harry Engel Barry was the Greatest, but the line in front of him was almost irrelevant. He was seldom running to the designed hole: his vision and reflexes let him go to where the hole appeared, not where it was intended to be made. If you can watch a lot of Lions game film, you'll see the line blocked more as if it was a pass play-just stand the defensive opponent up to stall their first step into the play. Most of the time that is all Barry needed to break through the line.
Jim Brown was the MVP of the NFL in his FIRST season and his LAST season.
Fun fact he was the first nfl mvp ever period
Never missed a game in his 9 year career, AMAZING!
If he played in the 90s I bet people would give him more respect, but Barry gets it all.
@@cobracmr4 The first year they gave the award was in 1957, Brown's rookie year. Thorpe, Grange, Nagurski, Luckman, Baugh, Hutson, Layne, Graham all would have likely been multiple time league MVP's had they given award since 1920.
@@georgewagner2352 Wikipedia lied to me than🤕🤕
Not only is Barry Sanders one of the greatest backs of all time, he is obviously one of the most humble also
Walter Payton, Sweetness, best to ever do it. Did it all, running, blocking, throwing, catching. Played on very bad teams and still was a beast.
yeah those 85 Bears were a bad team. What are you talking about!
@@Charleybones The only good things about the 85 Bears was it's amazing defense and Walter Payton. They had average to below average WR's, passably decent QB, average to below average O-Line, and decent TE.
walter doesn’t get enough credit the heart of the nfl the heart of football. a great.
Victor Janicek greatest
He cant talk r.i.p sweet but that's y they have to move on to people who are here thoo
As far as the current players go he definitely gets the credit. To a lot of players the “Walter Payton award” is more coveted than mvp
Dude career was crazy. He only miss one game n it was bc his coach sat him. Greatest ever.
Right should have been number two.
Barry Sanders imo is not only the greatest rb of all time, but he's also one hell of a good guy.
just some minced garlic Walter Payton is way better and a way better person
@@c.olin5 check the stats lmfao
John Salpas bruh Walter Payton has 16,726 yards and Barry Sanders has 15,269 yards
Grant Vasquez I never said that. I was just saying Walter was a better person
@@c.olin5 1,000 yards more but he played 3 seasons longer than Barry. Personally idk either of them in real life but Barry has always struck me as a really stand up guy. I'm sure Walter was too, I've just never been a bears fan.
I love that Bill is star struck😂 I’ve never seen him this engaged but you can tell he loves the game
He had no integrity and made the NFL into a sports entertainment sideshow. He knew his team couldn’t win unless he recorded the other teams locker room, his staff disguised as nfl cameramen, deflated balls for his noodle arm QB, drones and his boyfriend the commissioner. He made a joke of the league
I've been a Raider fan since '79 and I was sure Marcus Allen would be on this list. He could do it all. Run, catch and block. Scored over 100 tds, rushed for more than 10,000 yds and more than 5,000 receiving yards. And Super Bowl 18 MVP! He would had more if Al Davis wouldn't have tried to derail his career.
He was an amazing player no doubt and I remember him in KC as well. Looking at his numbers I'm a bit surprised he didn't have better stats, but he always had an ability to make plays no matter his age.
No kidding. His attitude in the face of Al Davis was amazing. Overcoming that frustration and still playing hard year after year. It sets a great example
Wow..how is Marcus Allen not in this list...Damn
Wait Marcus not on 100 list??
I've always known how talented and humble Barry Sanders was and still is, but looking at the admiration from Emmitt Smith and his completely honest admission that he still believes Barry would've been the first back to 20,000 - special. So many times people say Emmitt only holds the all time rushing record, because Barry retired too early, like somehow Emmitt doesn't believe that's the case, but he clearly does believe it and I can't help but admire him for that! Mutual respect from both the 90's top RB's.
When Jim Brown Speaks.......you listen
PERIOD !!!
Amen to that.
ua-cam.com/video/jGh_FJ-cFzI/v-deo.html
Yes Sir
He was, and is, the greatest running back who ever breathed.
Ain't that the truth! 20 years ago I worked on a film called, "Any Given Sunday." I came into the studio to do a voice over session for it and Jim Brown was scheduled right after I was. Jim shook my hand as we introduced ourselves and could not have been more gracious during our brief chat. I'm 6'4" and well north of 200 lbs. I played sports in college and professionally for a short time. I was bigger and many years younger than Brown when we met but I _instantly_ felt like he was the alpha in the room. I have never experienced feeling that way around another human being, before or since. Nor have I ever even thought about my encounters with anyone else on those terms. His presence and aura was just that overpowering. It was something I'll never forget.
Glad Barry was willing to do the show! He was the only reason to watch the Lions for a decade
He's why I watched
Hell, I'm a Niners fan and I was anytime the Lions were on TV because you always knew Barry was gonna give you something to watch. My 2nd favorite RB of all time
Barry Sanders was the Michael Jordan of Running backs. He made it look to easy.
Yep. Most amazing rb ever. And the most humble. As much as i wish (as a fan) he'd have gone ahead and gotten that 20k like Emmit mentioned, i respect him for not having enough ego to chase individual records
@@Nkosinati no doubt. He got out while he could still walk and speak that dude got punished so hard, garbage O-Line and everybody they played had a target right on his little back. Amazes me he stayed healthy and on the field for most of those 10 years.
One adjective for Barry: Barry is WOW.
You might not call him GOAT. In fact, he clearly he had no personal interest in being considered GOAT. But basically everyone (with the notable exception of Jim Brown) bows down to this dude. The reason is that this dude brought the wow, week in and week out. Most amazing back ever.
For anyone interested in Jim Brown's thoughts on Barry while he played: ua-cam.com/video/jGh_FJ-cFzI/v-deo.html . I believe this roundtable was in 1992.
@@Nkosinati that is a very interesting video- almost seems like Jim was a little jealous of Barry back then
I remember there was a national paper writer who said objectively, Barry Sanders was the only player he felt in the decades of watching football, that he would go pay to see specifically. His job dictated he write about players across the country. He already had the dream of many, seeing often any game he wanted to write on for free. But he'd PAY to go see Sanders, specifically.
It's gonna bother me till I find the writers name. But I remembered watching that and thinking, WOW. Just like you said Nkosinati. That's a player.
@@darthmfunkulous7360 He's basically saying what everyone says about Sanders. He's boom or bust. Keep in mind at this point sanders had had 25 fumbles over four years.
Like Calvin Johnson when it comes to WR conversation or Randy Moss.
I never thought I would see Jim Brown, Emmitt Smith, and Barry Sanders at the same table, let alone the same room.
Late but I got you bro
Barry Sanders, so humble and such a great man. Much respect.
He scores a touchdown....no stupid dancing...no growling into the TV camera...no thumping his chest...no stupid "skipping"....just gives the ball to the ref...and goes to the sidelines. All class and a humble guy. Could use more guys like Sanders in the NFL instead of the overrated clowns that they try to pass off as football players now!!!
@@beatlejim64 If only Odell and AB were like that.
Jim Cushman what’s wrong with having fun? The players can celebrate all they want it’s what makes this sport fun
@@lucendawhite7573 because there is something really relatable about a guy just treating it like its his job and thats what Barry is working class to the core
@@beatlejim64 I agree, Jim that quality is very rare anymore , in all aspects of life
Adding OJ Simpson to the group give this list total legitimacy. It's about football and the art and not politics.

@@22thedon90 FUMBLES!!! As a Viking fan I would rather have had OJ not fumbling.
Goes to show how much they hate Owens.
It really is a damn shame that we can’t talk about OJ the football player anymore. He was phenomenal and the arguably the best football player of the 70s.
and yet TO isn't on the team ... how?
OJ was simply unbelievable.. Probably had the single greatest season ever rushing for 2000 in just 14 games.
Definitely the best individual season ever by a RB. 2003 yards in 14 games is insane
him and terrell davis’s 2000 seasons are the best. in my opinion they’re about equal as terrell sat out so many quarters
@@jackmealor8455 OJ averaged 6 yards a carry in 1973 so I'd have to give him the nod as the greatest season ever. Just my opinion obviously.
As a kid I was a big OJ fan 2003 yards in a 14 game season is amazing & nobody to this day has rushed for 2000 yards in 14 games!!!
@@1973169 love watching o.j Simpson run college and NFL, ohio state ucla touchdown run

@@isaackintz8368 that's an oversimplification. Read the facts and get back to me

He really could cut through a defense. Sharp cuts, and killer speed.
Love the respect and love these men have for each other. Just look at the way Emmitt looks at Barry. These guys are brothers
I just noticed that, but how can you not admire Barry?
Barry Sanders was poetry in motion, the GOAT imo
The one thing that stands out about Jim Browns highlights is the amazing BLOCKS that his teammates were throwing down. They really loved him, they turned many 20 yard runs into 50 yard TDs.
Edit: Im glad they acknowledged OJs achievements. From a purely football standpoint, he was untouchable.
Ladainian tomlinson got robbed man
Shane Rossi faulk should be ahead. Better career than earl campbell
Too much competition!
Shane Rossi if we gone argue better rb, i can argue emmit shouldnt be on the list. Faulk a better talent easily. Probably the first elite receiving rb ever
@@TheKiid810 nope. You must not of seen earl Campbell play then

And there are still so many amazing running backs that weren’t on the list. Hopefully there’s an honorable mention so they get some recognition.
i feel like the honorable mention list is represented by all the nfl 100 finalists who didnt make the cut
I think this is only like 1/2 the actual show. So maybe some other guys got in that we didn't see
There is a reason for this list! No honorable mention needs to be added.
Yep, way too many
20GRIZZ20 so LaDainian Tomlinson is a half way decent running back? What about John Riggins, frank gore, AP, Marcus Allen, Bo Jackson? All those guys where considered the best back when they came in to the league. And all have had prolific careers.

They handled it very well with a decent amount of time & comments and then kept it moving.

RIP GOAT!
Surprised Dutch Clark made it over Red Grange and Bronko Nagurski
@Harry Engel you don't know sh**
I don't think they wanted 3 players from one team (the Bears).
Who 🤣
@Harry Engel True, there are very few documented stats from the 20's and 30's but Jim Thorpe, Bronko Nagurski and Red Grange were the best running backs, and best all around players along with Sammy Baugh, that have ever played.
@Harry Engel There should have been a separate category for players that played 3 or more positions. Players like Lenny Moore were not PURE running backs. I would put Lenny Moore, Dutch Clark, Marion Motley and some others from this list along with Charley Taylor, Bobby Mitchell, Jim Thorpe, Bronko Nagurski, and Red Grange on a "SPECIAL", special teams list. Gale Sayers , believe it or not, may have been a better kick returner than a half back. George Blanda, great kicker and QB, Lou Groza, great OT and Kicker etc. etc.
My dad played against Earl Campbell in 1977 while playing collegiate ball and he said he drug the entire team a good ways haha but he said it was so memorable at the same time 😊 He did manage to shoestring tackle Campbell though which just brought the whole experience together! He won the Hiesman Trophy that year from the University of Texas.
O.J. getting the respect he deserves. On a football field, O.J. was sensational.
On his front yard not so much
Nobody made defenses look foolish but one back Barry Sanders he didn't use power like most backs he was just skilled beyond definition
Emmitt has the best resume of any RB in history. It's not even close.
No. Jim brown only Running back to average over 100 yards a game. Average 5.2 highest in NFL history. Led the the league in rushing his first 8 years in the league. 3 time Mvp. Never missed a game
Belichick fanboying at Emmitt is actually hilarious
When things get bad, y’all go to the running game!..
I literally spit out my cereal, laughing... So true, Emmitt... So true..
Belicheck is fantastic, listening to him breakdown tape, that could be a show on the NFL network and I would watch every week
Jim Brown was running so hard he almost stiff armed his own man in the first play 💪🏿‼
Emmitt Smith letting it be known, showing how much respect and the pure knowledge in his heart that he may be the all time nfl leading rusher in the books, but BARRY SANDERS was the REAL DEAL
Imagine if Barry had the luxury of playing on a good team every year and behind an offensive line of solid players
It's so weird to see Belicheck with any personality. Actually seems like a good guy
Why did you think he wasn’t? Because the media doesn’t like him?
He gets a bad rap he cooler then portrayed
My 12 would be:
Goat: Barry Sanders.
4 more to complete 5 best ever: Walter Payton, Jim Brown, Eric Dickerson, and Emmitt Smith.
3 more locks: Gale Sayers, O.J. Simpson, Earl Campbell.
My last 4 in: Ladainian Tomlinson, Adrian Peterson, Tony Dorsett, and Marcus Allen.
Great list. I have respect for Dutch Clark but he shouldn’t have made the list. Lions fans never even think about him. Regardless of era he’s not very deserving of this list.
I had O.J. Simpson. He was 1 of my 3 more locks. As for Marshall Faulk, there would have to be 14 running backs for me to include him as I'd put Terrell Davis in front of him as well, Marcus Allen and Terrell Davis would both be ahead of Faulk by the hair splitters of their rushing titles (1 each, Allen 1985, Davis 1998), and their Super Bowl MVPs. Allen got the nod over Davis as my very last back in owing to his 123 career touchdown mark, including 6 seasons in double digits.
Dorsett was a unique case as he's the only guy on my list without a rushing title and I could've put the other TD in that spot. But Dorsett for me fell under the category of "The tape tells the truth of how good he was." He was a big play threat with great speed. It is worth noting that Dorsett's career high is 1646 yards, several hundred yards above Faulk's career high of 1382. Also, Dorsett held the silver medal of career rushing yards at the time of his retirement. Sometimes I think weight should to given to well how a guy actually played the position. That's why I rank Kellen Winslow Sr. as the best tight end of all time (With Gronk 2nd and Tony G 3rd) because of how elite he was at actually playing the position. It's a little different here because Dorsett isn't in goat contention for RBs. But the tape shows his big play ability and fantastic speed. It's also worth noting that "the tape telling the truth" is why I made Sayers a lock despite the brevity of his career.
I'm a life long Lions fan, and I really like your list. To me, it's a coin flip between #1 of Barry Sanders or Walter Payton. It's a shame that Barry's predecessor, Billy Sims, playing time was too short to be considered in this list of greats.
In that sense Billy Sims was Bo Jackson before Bo Jackson. But at least Billy got in 3 1000 yard seasons before he was done.
Barry Sanders #1. He's just at another level.
Nah emmitt
Nah Walter Payton did all that with less help and never quit on his team and great man to

Jim Brown played for 9 seasons with a 12 game schedule, is remarkable. Imo the goat hands down.
“He was a ugly runner.” - Jim Brown on OJ’s running style. 😂😂😂
It's a crime Marcus Allen isn't here
How is Ladanian Tomlinson not on this list?? Didn't they see him play or look at his stats?!?!?
I am sorry, but LT is nowhere close to these guys, the only one you could potentially sub out is Earl Campbell, and by doing that makes the list invalid
Probably because he quit on his team vs the Patriots... Remember he jus sat there... one possible reason
Can't think of a single guy that I'd take off in place of Tomlinson - especially since the point is represent different eras. But I agree that he's probably the greatest back not on the list.
@@citizenghosttown represent different eras but not one guy on the list was drafted in like the last 30 years almost. That represents a huge chunk of the 100 years.
@@thebreathslow4089 Earl Campbell was a nightmare
It’s honestly kinda sad that Barry Sanders dad mentioned the other running backs in that speech, if I’m talking about my son, I’m not talking about where he placed, I’m talking about his greatness and how proud I am to be his father, just felt like the dude could’ve been more supportive
D Rak A that’s just the way his dad was. He was always pushing Barry to be better and it was just him joking around
Barry Sanders dad had a picture of Barry Switzer on his fireplace mantle. That was even after Barry went to Osu
he probly would of been the GOAT if his dad wasn't a POS
Yeah.
His father was a punk.
You know, one of those guys that's so into himself, he doesn't even realize what he's doing. I mean, he can believe what he thinks for sure. That's his prerogative. However, to say that during Barry's HOF induction (and no, he wasn't joking), just makes him an idiot in many peoples eyes.
Some of y'all sound dumb asf and clearly under the age of 35 in this soft ass coddled society we live in now .... THOUSANDS of running backs in the history of the league and Barry's Dad spoke HIS truth... Not what he thought Barry wanted to hear.... In his Dads opinion Barry is the 3rd best back to EVER touch a football.... That's high praise... And if you listened to Barry's story his Dad taught him his work ethic and discipline and to not gloat and showboat but go about your business like a professional.... How does that make his dad a "POS"? y'all goofy asf .....smh
But I love Barry Sanders and having watched him, he was by far better than Emmitt
Barry didn't have the strength to battle it out in the red zone, so no! Emmitt was better!
amazing amazing footage of the Kansas Comet, Gale Sayers.
LaDanian Tomblinson and Adrian Peterson should’ve made this list, while LT didn’t play for that long he sure made a difference when he and Phillip Rivers made that Charger’s team an offensive juggernaut. And I don’t need to say why Peterson deserves a spot up there in the all-time team
LT didn't play long?! Man has over 150 TDs lol! Third most I believe.
Why wouldn't he be on that list?
Its a position that has so many great names from long ago that you can't leave out
Adrian Peterson is the best running back since sanders
LT is easily top 5 of all-time. All-purpose back… running, receiving, passing, blocking… speed, elusiveness, power.
On a 9 season peak (using Jim Brown’s career length as a benchmark) he rates the best of all-time on efficiency stats for touches, yards and points.
Ladainian Tomlinson had the third most TDs in NFL history. Enough said!
but no heart .........................
Earl Campbell NFL offensive player of the year 3 years in a row
Your mom prob an LT fan
That's all he had. Nothing else. He's overrated. Just because you got the ball everytime you were at the goal line didn't mean you were great.
Imagine thinking LT should be on this list
This was a great list.
R.I.P. Jim Brown 🐐
With all the greatness in this video, Walter Payton will always give me goosebumps in my opinion he is without a doubt the greatest back to ever play.
I can just feel Bill Bellicheck getting ready to be a talking head on t.v.
I hope so. This is Brady's final year of his contract. When he goes I don't expect Belichick to be too far behind him
Barry Sanders is and always be number,1 best back.
Barry Sanders is the reason I'm a Lions fan...he was a very humble player. He ”always knew where the referee was when he scored” and didn't have to spike the ball.
Payton played though 2 NFL strike years in '82 and '87. He might have had 18-19,000 yards, if no strikes. But Barry may have had 20,000, if he didn't retire early.
The line about "people making business decisions..." before attempting to tackle Marion Motley cracked me up! 🤣
Payton was probably the greatest all around football player in history. Running, blocking, catching, passing, and he was the backup punter and kicker. I was very lucky to have lived in Chicago for the entirety of his career and of course his tragic death.
Emmitt Smith and Walter Payton are both 2 of my favorite running backs of All-Time
Earl Campbell. Enough said. Titan ☝🏾 and long live the Oilers.
No Tomlinson, Adrian Peterson, Marcus Allen or Marshall Faulk 🤔
Marcus Allen was great, but he didn’t compile the rushing yards towards the end of his career
Where’s Marshall Faulk
Had to watch some Tony Dorsett highlights after this .
Tony would have been #101
Adrian Peterson and Ladianian Tomlinson should've been on this list!
serge014 nah
Nope
The only reason I disagree is because... who would they have made it over
Crimmy the plumbers from the 40s
@@crimmy1603 Dutch Clark is one of them.
Rest easy gale sayers
Jim brown is the greatest ever. I get chills every time I hear him speak
Marshal Faulk has to be in The NFL’s top 100 Football players of all time.
Idc what the list is, if it’s about all time great football players then Marshal Faulk has to be on that list.
Barry Sanders , Jim Brown , Walter Payton ,
Emmitt Smith , Marshal Faulk , O.J. Simpson
You can’t tell the history and progression of the position without Faulk. He also had a very high football iq whether it’s blocking or receiving he was the engine of the greatest show on tuft. What are rbs asked to do now? They just don’t do it as well as him
You can tell bill really loved watching emmitt Smith he was just in awwwww
ik lt was great, but adrian peterson shd definitely be on here. one of the best ever
He's still playing so they would never include him. LT however was robbed. Not one RB from the modern decade smh.
@@TheHeadincharge Adam Vinatieri is still playing. He made the team as a Kicker.
AP was left off along with LT due to previous era bias. The guys picking these players are mostly 50+ years old. They pick some guys they watched as kids knowing damn well they don't hold a candle to even some modern players who won't make the HoF.
@@BruvahSulaiman preach
@@BruvahSulaiman it's not a bias on modern players
Bud he leads in points as kicker yeah he’s win the Super Bowl twice in kicks lol yeah he is allowed so is Brady
God bless Sweetness! Walter Payton did it all at only 205LB beast runner with amazing blocking. Wish he was still here to talk 😢❤
Marion Motley and Walter Payton were both the epitome of toughness on the field and greatness off of it.
Barry was the best and is the best of all times
Rest In Peace Walter Payton and Rest In Peace gale sayers, two of the best Chicago bears running backs of all time
Rip Legend Mr Brown God our hearts hurt Thank you number "1
Perfect Running Back:
Walter Payton's toughness
Jim Brown's size
Emmitt Smith's vision
Barry Sander's agility
Eric Dickerson's speed
Marshall Faulk's hands
Earl Campbell's strength
Genetic Freak I will take BS vision over anybody
Don't forget Oj's lawyer
Sounds like Bo Jackson... the greatest athlete of all time!
@White Oak Grove Church Well if it's really you after I made the list I was reminded of your speed and also remembered you ran a 4.1 40 LOL. I'm thinking maybe I should go back and revise it with Bo Jackson's speed.
Look at Adrian Peterson 🙌🏿 Texas boys are built different 😂
Jim brown honestly is the greatest running back of all time. He set record in 12 game seasons that guys now can’t break in 16 games. Imagine if Jim brown played 16 game seasons his whole career nobody woulda touched his records
I got to agree with that. Hes the only one i would put ahead of Barry. Sanders was unstoppably elusive and explosive but he was usually trying to avoid being caught. Jim Brown was like superman deflecting bullets with his chest. He didnt need to elude anybody. He would outrun you or go right through you.
I agree, Jim Brown had it all. Strength, speed, and elusiveness.
Dear 100 All Time Team, Thank you for separating life from Professional Football to include the first 2000 yards over 2000 yards rusher in NFL History, OJ Simpson 🏈
@@josephwilliamson1770 yep.
Also the only one that did it in 14 games
Bill Belichick damn near offered Barry Sanders a contract on the spot.
As a 30 year plus Giants fan.. Emmitt was a beast. He was the heartbeat of those great Cowboys teams.
I refuse to believe Van Buren, Dutch Clark, and Moore we’re on the list over Marshall Faulk, Adrian Peterson, and LT. Faulk is the first truly elite receiving back plus he was the head on the Greatest Show on Turf. LT has the record for most rushing tds in a season and All Day is the last truly great rb who would carry his own team. Terrible misses right there.
Moore was a really good reciever but that was as a receiver. Not a receiving RB.
Motley doesn't belong either. Breaking the color barrier doesn't make him a better RB than some other guys.
In fact it probably gave him an advantage.
What about Curtis Martin
@Gods Of Jupiter
That should only count in a top 100 in general list.
On a position specific team all time team you aren't going to need a RB who played CB when you have the CB position filled by the best CBs ever
@Gods Of Jupiter
Then they should've added a separate roster spot for 2way players cause these RBs would not make a top 200 list for whatever defensive position they played and don't belong ahead of better RBs on a RB list.
@@BruvahSulaiman Did you know Motleys records from the old AAC dont count.
Where is AP, MVP, 2000 yard season after torn ACL, single game rushing record ran 6 yards on every carry and run throught anybody. Im just saying
Right. These clowns are haters bro
He's busy coughing up the ball. He did/does have some big records
@@beerthug hes busy still running over 1000 yard seasons in redskins lol
Vikings fan here my entire life, AP should not be on this list, a ton of rbs got left out, I dont think either lenny Moore or Campbell should be on list, Paul hornung not on list.., he was the lenny Moore before lenny moore, and Campbell could be replaced w a myriad of power runners, csonka, riggins, alstott, jim taylor
@@zackwoodward4430 we agree to disagree but i feel like the older players get in easier thats my opinion i would take ladanian tomlinson over emmitt smith tbh
Faulk. Revolutionary player best combo RB in history! Not on here??
people forget how great O.J simpson was
12:33 Probably the only person alive who would ever dream of contradicting the great Jim Brown when talking about Running backs.
Bill "I wouldn't call him a power runner but he runs with good power" Belicheck 😂
