Original Video: • Barry Sanders Top 50 M...
Nobody is comparable to Barry today.
He said "most like" even if someone is miles away, there's still someone who is the closest. Of course people know this they just want to go "THERE WILL NEVER BE ANOTHER BLAH BLAH BLAH"
@@AlexanderNash It's a really difficult question to answer though. There are players that he's truly not like, say Derek Henry. But when you get into the category of similarities, it gets really muddied because Barry had so many skills and did it his own way. You can find top RBs in the league that have a skill closer in likeness than others but they would be less similar in other skills. No matter what, the way Barry did it was unique.
@@ravex24put it this way, name a modern RB who has a insane amount of patience, goes the route of avoiding the opponent as to further the play, has the quickest burst in the game, and has the more humble than any player in the game.
I agree. Barry Sanders forced defense to rethink tackling and stopping the run.
I’ve never seen another RB that made me think of Barry.
His ability to stop on a dime, take a step backward to allow a defender to fall over themselves lurching to attempt a tackle, then move forward again at near top speed is unique.
Barry Sanders. No one was like him before, and there will never be another.
I know I'm biased (lifelong Lions fan here), but I don't think there's anyone even close to his ability in the modern game. He was genuinely one of a kind
Barry was the most exciting football player I've ever seen at any position
There was nobody like Barry Sanders. Him and Calvin Johnson are all-time great talents that are famous for having their careers "wasted" by the Lions. I'm with you though I can't wait for football season, particularly college football!
Walter Payton is another one of the greats at running back to check out
Cheers, I'll have a look!
Only 5'8" and able to switch directions without losing speed. Not the biggest, strongest or fastest, but his ability to juke people out of their shoes, sidestep and bounce off tacklers like a pinball was amazing to watch. And he played on a perpetually bad team , the defense always knew he was going to get the ball.
Barry was still fast as hell. He ran a 4.3 40-yard.
Definitely would be the all time leading rusher if he didn’t retire so early, the GOAT of RBs, I’m a cowboys fan but Barry is my all time favorite back. Put him behind that 90s Cowboys O-Line and he would’ve shattered emmits records.
Said same thing above, miss watching that dude play.
Thanks for admitting that. I get very tired of hearing Smith as the RB GOAT. It's Barry, hands down.
@@Ronndawabbit yeah man im DIE HARD COWBOYS FAN but like I said Barry is my favorite back of all time.
You nailed it. Barry was never the fastest guy on the field, but he was usually the quickest. Meaning he could get to his top speed faster than most guys could get to half their top speed. That's what made his cuts soooo devastating. He could stop on a dime, juke, and then be back at top speed all within like 3 seconds lol.
And to answer your question, no one. No one in the NFL today is like Barry Sanders.
Lifelong Lions fan here. I will never forget watching that #1 play live in 1991, the only Lions playoff win since 1957 😢
Anywho- my initial thought was i will never see a better run in my lifetime.
#75 still doesn't know where Barry went, lol.
I remain confident in that assessment.
I was at that game, too. It was amazing! I don't think the Silverdome had ever been that loud that I can remember.😅
Well now were in playoffs were gonna bake baker and company at 400° for 60 mins😂
Barry Sanders makes you believe in magic.
There's no one like Barry Sanders today or yesterday maybe in another lifetime. Barry Sanders is the greatest NFL player in the history of the game #1 player of all time.
I hear you, but Jerry Rice has to be up there.
@@willpowell2938 there's alot of player's up there but they are all under Sanders. He's not only the best NFL player of all time but he's the best college player of all time also. Can you think of anyone else who can make you stand up and think you cant believe your eyes on a 3 yard run I cant.
One the most exciting aspects of a player like Barry Sanders is that you know that every time he's on the field, THIS might be a big play. Any play has the potential to be a spectacular touchdown.
If Barry Sanders wasn't the best running back (and many rightfully argue for others) he was one the very best anyway. He was a straight up guy too. Playing all along for a lower tier team when going some where else would probably get him more yards, money, & a shot to go far in the play offs. He had loyalty that not many in the NFL have. I'm sure he had his problems but many team mates said he never was a distraction.
A short list of some of the greatest RB's through the years; Jim Brown (perhaps the GOAT), Walter Payton, Barry Sanders, Emmit Smith, Eric Dickerson, Adrian Peterson, and LaDanian Tomlinson. Gale Sayers would be on the list but his career ended prematurely due to a knee injury. There are many more greats, but these are some of the best of the best.
Put Bo Jackson there with Sayers on the great-until-injured list.
@@psymar Absolutely, Bo probably would have been one of the best ever if not for his injury. Not to mention he's probably the best 2 sport athlete ever (was a great baseball player for the KC Royals as well).
@@loverbay4235if you put Bo on the list, then Billy Simms probably deserves to be on the list too.
Go back and watch Billy’s first year in the league before the injuries. Watch his short career highlights.
ua-cam.com/video/i-5WwHxNpro/v-deo.htmlsi=C1GqcVoy-fUcw4xg
Marshall Faulk baby!
Always heard growing up watching him that he was tackled for a loss more than anyone, but he also led the league or conference in rushing year-after-year, implying that his offensive line was less than ideal. One thing is for sure: if he had Emmitt Smith's offensive line, the Detroit Lions would have been a force to be reckoned with in those days. He still drug them to the playoffs a few times (he and Herman Moore of course). Sometimes literally!
Anyway, glad you're taking to American Football. We've switched sports! I've gotten more and more into the Premier League over the last 10 years or so, and some of you Brits are coming around to our football! Love to see it.
theres nobody who can run like barry did in todays game
The only one in recent memory for me, as far as running style with crazy changes of direction, is Reggie Bush.
Great video of Barry Sanders, yes he was special.
So many of Barry’s runs would have had another 15 yards tacked on in today’s game because of all the times when the only way to bring him down was with a horsecollar tackle (which is when a player gets tackled by a defender grabbing on to the back opening on a runner’s shoulder pads at the nameplate and dragging them down from behind). Super unsafe play, which is why it’s illegal now, and it’s a miracle Barry never had major injuries from getting tackled like that.
I love #5 on that list cuase the QB puts his hands up for touchdown before barry even made it past the line of scrimmage cause he knew what time it was
You are right. He didn't have the absolute top speed BUT he was the quickest and shiftiest RB of all time.
On pure talent alone, there's not another man in the world who could do what Barry Sanders did. He was literal poetry in motion. The closest anyone has ever gotten would probably be CMC or Ladanian Tomlinson, but respectfully, they aren't on the level.
I grew up watching sanders, for him to rush like this consistently with how bad his O line was is unbelievable
I’m a Lions fan, so I’m biased a bit, but Barry is the best running back the game has ever seen. During the draft in Detroit this year, he came out as part of the opening, and the entire crowd was chanting his name!
The Lions may have sucked but Barry was must watch TV
Only time the lions were some what decent since the 50s
randy moss highlights are crazy. Micheal vick's are crazy
Agree that no one is comparable, but while watching this video, the full speed cuts made me think of J. Gibbs. Day after Silverdome trips, couldn’t talk because I was screaming “Barry, Barry, Barry”!
Many of the guys he burned in these clips are Hall of Famers. Barry was amazing. If he would have been on a good team, I think his numbers would have been off the charts.
There's only one Barry Sanders and there's really nobody that can compare in the modern day. Maybe Dalvin Cook? Idk that's the closest I've got but really Barry was one of a kind
Not dalvin bro, if anyone it would be saquan
@@markramon11 Who is saquan? Only joking, Saquon is my favorite but he's a much more powerful back than Barry was, I was just trying to think of a smaller back who's shifty and can escape when you don't think he should be able to
@@jartstopsign yeah I see what you’re saying, saquan is more powerful. I just remember young saquan before the injuries. Even though he’s short as shit I’m hoping deuce Vaughn produces for the cowboys. He ls nice and shifty.
THANK YOU SM IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS
Marshawn Lynch was a more recent running back who was unbelievable in his time. He wasn’t the fastest or the most elusive but he fought for ever piece of ground he could get on every play. His determination was near unmatched
Nobody comes close to running like Barry Sanders in todays game.
Most of his best runs were for short yard gains. Runs where he gets hit in the backfield, tosses aside the would-be tackler, runs left, cuts back right, and somehow gains yards when any other running back would have been dropped for a loss.
“Top 50” highlight like this focus on the long runs and the TD scoring runs. Many of those runs are just straightforward runs. But it’s the short runs that never make the highlights that are among his very best.
The nickname" BULLET"is already taken.It's another NFL Hall Of Fame Running Back and Kickoff Returner of the Dallas Cowboys of the early 60s to mid 70s.The Original Number 22 the late great Bob "BULLET" Hays who also was an Olympic 100 meter dash sprinter.Fact: Barry Sanders said he didn't like getting hit,ironic that he played a sport and a position that gets hit the second most in football next to the offensive and defensive lines.😊😊
There was, is and never will be another running back like Barry Sanders.
Sean Taylor has the best hits compilations, died tragically young, but in his time in the nfl he was the hardest hitter in the game at the time. His hit on a punter in the pro bowl made the entire stadium go "OOHHHHH" at the same time. He was the most electric defensive player I've seen personally. Always seemed to know where the passes were going too, plenty of pick 6's.
Agree that there has never been anyone like Barry.
You should check out Barry's senior year at Oklahoma State. Video game numbers. #41 on this list is his very first NFL run. Also, some of the players he's leaving lying on the turf like laundry are NFL Hall of Famers. I counted at least a dozen of them. Some of them twice.
You got to get thru the long hot summer first. Then there's always excitement when football starts up, because you know cooler weather is around the corner.
Im a 90s kid from Michigan, and Barry Sanders cursed me to be a Lions fan 4 life.
Ahhh feeling the pain of no football in summer. Welcome 🙏🏽 😂
Literally no Football this summer, American or European (Soccer) it's all gone 😭
@@BritishGuy22 it’s a drought man! These highlights will get us through!
@@BritishGuy22 the closest thing right now is Canadian football. It’s not the same but it’s still fun.
Jahmyr gibbs on the lions hes a rookie but a beast.
There's never been anyone quite like Barry Sanders. Darrin Nelson had a similar running style, but he wasn't durable like Sanders. Sanders' exceptional traits were his acceleration from a stop, his ability to change directions, and his balance. They used to call him a jitterbug. You're right that he was fast, but not exceptionally fast.
I remember when he started at the lions.emmit smith said if he was at the owboys he wud have won so many superbowls and broked every running record by a mile.fkr me there o ly one and never will be another barry sanders
Barry sanders was a guy that had a joystick that I could do.
But also he was about 5’9 and would win slam dunk contests
There is no one like him
I'm a lions fan and I agree
To answer your question my good sir, Noone is like Barry Sanders
The top tier RBs are (in no particular order) Jim Brown, Walter Payton, Barry Sanders and Emmitt Smith. I'd probably also add Adrian Peterson. They're the Mount Rushmore. Each is different. Each played in different eras. The argument will go on forever about who the best is, but in my mind it's Payton.
I'm with you for the most part... but I feel like Emmitt Smith isn't top 5. Sure... he's got the record... but I honestly think LT and Dickerson are above him.
@@mithroch Emmitt played with premiere offenses and he's not the most spectacular runner, but he's so many yards ahead of everyone else, he belongs in the top tier.
My 4 top tier RBs all had, at minimum, 10 dominant season, with the exception of Jim Brown.
LDT and ED could be 1b and 1c.
I don't know where to put Frank Gore.
Bo Jackson
No one like Barry. He has the perfect build for an RB
Most Barry Sanders like in running style? Kenneth Walker III. Second year man. His college highlights are worth a look also.
Barry sanders is proof that if you look at nothing but stats, you don't know anything about the game. My favorite part of this video, though, is that at least half of the times he was taken down, he was taken down by a horse collar tackle. Which is illegal now. If he played in the modern day, his highlight reel would be even more insane!
The closest now to Barry's greatness I'd Christian McCaffery
Barry Sanders was my favorite player of all time. Barkley might br thr closest today but there is no 2nd Barrry Sanders.
Barry Sanders is one of those players where I say I wonder what he could have done if he was on a good team. He was the best player, by far, on otherwise bad teams in Detroit, which is notorious for being poorly run.
There's not really many modern comparisons to Barry. The most dominant running back recently has been Derrick Henry but he's a bulldozer, totally different style. LeSean McCoy retired recently but his running style was similar, he didn't run through people like Barry but he was very agile and shifty at changing directions. Maybe Saquon Barkley if he could ever stay healthy but he's been slowed down by injuries his whole career.
Barry arguably is the best running back to date. Nobody in the league like him today, but the game has changed as well. Closest is maybe Saquon Barkley.
NFL preseason games begin in August. The regular season begins at the beginning of September.
McCaffrey would be my closest current player, undersized, quick, good balance, finds lanes
Watch the college highlights of Reggie Bush, and there was a 3-4 year period when Marshall Faulk was Barry-like, but as far as sustained excellence, there's only one Barry Sanders.
Barry Sanders was 5'8 and could get hit by two dudes 6'2 and still keep going
There isn't really a contemporary comp for Barry. Prime Lesean McCoy comes to mind, but barry is the 1b GOAT next to jim brown. He'd be 1A+ if he'd swapped teams with lets say emmitt smith
I love how he makes it look like everyone is just shit at tackling
Closest elusiveness you would see to Barry would be Marshall Faulk or Curtis Martin look them up
The good news for you is that American football is a year around sport! The NFL and college football may only run from August until the beginning of February, but there’s also other leagues that run in the off-season. The XFL runs from February until May. The USFL Runs from mid April until the first week of July with their championship game. The Canadian football league runs from June until November. There’s also a European league of American football. They just started two weeks ago and that runs until sometime in October. There’s always American football on, you just Gotta know where to find it!
Born in 78. Barry was the best RB ever, my personal second was my man LT Ladannian Tomlinson. The closest the ng to Barry was maybe SDSU great Marshall Faulk, but not the same, just similar. There has not been another Barry unfortunately, 35 yrs later after leaving Oklahoma St in late 80's, when he paired with fellow HOF RB and another favorite of mine in my younger days, mister Thurman Thomas. Best backfield in college football at the time. Anyway there isn't another Barry, he was just different, on a bad bad team, poor fella. If he played behind Emmitt Smith's line in Dallas instead Barry probably would not have retired so early and had many more spectacular runs. However that didn't happen and because that line was so bad it made Barry look even more spectacular. Anyway looking forward to my boys finally like Georgia finally did and make it over that last hump and finally win another national title for the first time in over 25 years, if feels even more certain than it felt even last year with corum and Edwards both back and both will be playing together more often at the same time and fully utilized to their maximum this year. Anyway enjoy another good college football season and Go Blue!
LaDanian Tomlinson.......
B20 Always Just 🏃 ENUF!
Honestly i think the player who plays most like him now is Alvin Kamara.
Eric Dickerson is also worth a watch!
Football 🏈 will be back in September. GO VOLS 🍊🧡 Tennessee First gam September 2
nobody compares to barry sanders
Walter Payton => arguably the greatest running back and greatest football player ever.
the only one i like comparing barry sanders to is pavel datsyuk. barrys jukes, pavels stick handling. both barry and pavel would make literally the best in the game look like they should not be in the nfl/nhl. both would make opposing players look stupid
You asked who is like Barry Sanders today? Answer: No one.
Who in the past was like Barry Sanders? Answer: No one.
Barry was money 😂
NO ONE 🕐 🐐
Fred Taylor was the most complete RB
Personally I think Marshall Faulk is one of the best to ever play.
Check out the beast quake by Marshawn Lynch 👍.
He is OK, at best.
@@areguapiri I disagree, his whole career wasn't spectacular, but those couple years with the Seahawks he was a top tier back.
U gotta check out Sean Taylor rip🕊
And let’s go lions
you should react to ... gale sayers , the greatest NFL runner .
Do calvin Johnson a.k.a megatron best wr- to ever do it.
I believe the USFL is until July.
There is no true comparison to Barry in the modern NFL, as the running game has much less impact on the modern NFL offenses. For that reason I'd say no current running backs can truly compare to him. The closest players to him would be at other positions like Tyreek Hill (WR) and Lamar Jackson (QB).
Marshall Faulk potna
There is only ONE Barry Sanders
There is NOBODY close.
Become a Tennessee Vols fan. It's the best :)
Adrian Peterson or Randy Moss
The comparable player now is Derrick Henry
He's NOTHING like Barry Sanders.
He was so short that it was difficult to "track" him behind the forest of "Big Uglies". Too bad he played for such a crappy franchise...I'm sure he would have played a few more years...
No one in today's game that I can think of moves like Barry. The most recent would probably be Adrian Peterson.
If you'd like a top 50 on the defense side I'd recommend Troy Polanalu:
ua-cam.com/video/vDrwuwvq1oc/v-deo.html
unfortunately he had to play for the lions…. THE WORST SPORTS FRANCHISE EVER CREATED
Bo Jackson
Bo KNOWS football. Bo KNOWS Baseball.
Huzzah!
