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.

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : VICTORY! We have (moral) victory!
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Hey they mentioned that we 3-peted
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : seems to me the 49ers should have traded Aiyuk when they had the chance
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : if the Eagles get it down to the 1, do they Tush Push or give it to Barkley?

beast (10-Feb) : Then Carter was street racing, where the other car crashed and people died... and other teams were scared to pick Carter for some reason
beast (10-Feb) : I think the Saints traded up, giving their next year 1st to the Eagles, and then they sucked and Eagles got the 10th overall pick
packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : wtf Barkley?
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Getting Carter and Nolan Smith in the first round in 2023 was pretty darn good
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : for some reason i'm thinking of a draft where the Eagles where in the mid 20s and a top player fell all the way to them
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think so. I would need to look it up. Think it may have been Carolina's pick.
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : i'm not sure who i'm thinking of now
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : oh fuck me i messed that up
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Jordan Davis was 13th overall
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Carter was 9th overall
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles had 15th and 10th selections, moved to 13 and 9 to get Davis and Carter back to back
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles traded up for Carter, didn't they?
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Obviously he was a huge risk but getting a top 5 talent on the dline in the mid 20s is fortuitous
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Jalen Carter falling into their lap certainly helps
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : And we could only wish to have this type of D
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : It's not like Philly has had low draft picks, but has managed to get themselves a top notch pass rush. We spend so much draft capital of D
packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : another crap halftime show
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think it is over, but then I think of Atlanta and want Philly to go in with the same intensity in the second half
