Barry Sanders, Emmitt Smith.. Great. Indeed, but not even in the same stratosphere as Bo Jackson.

Left handed too. Him and Bubba Franks could throw the surprise HB option!

I'm curious why someone hasn't yet devised a method to create physical freak athletes that tower 6'5" and can run a 4.3 forty then. Money can buy once in a generation athlete, why hasn't anyone done it? I'm disgusted with America.

But I guess you can be like Texas and the rest of the knuckle draggers in here and deny things like this happened. Or was it that it happened centuries ago and doesn't matter. That's my favorite reason for all of you to dismiss the atrocities of the past.

He's my favorite Packer RB and in my top 5 for sure, maybe top 2 favorite Packer players. He and James Jones were the only ex Packers I followed when they left. I'm so glad both came back. Packers fans value loyalty so I think because he wasn't drafted by us and the fact that he did leave knocks him down a few pegs in many fan's eyes

He is #1 in yards
#1 in carries
#2 in rushing Tds
With a min of 100 carries he's #4 for rushing average

As a receiving RB he is #1 in yards
#1 in receptions
#2 in receiving Tds

And that for the most part was in only 6 seasons.

He is a member of the Packers Hall of Fame.

He should be in anyone's top 10 list of favorite players. And there are certainly a lot of players to choose from.
