Once again you can think all you want about OJ, but the fact that he led the league with 1,251 yards one year and the next put up over 2,000 in 14 games is crazy. It's Dan Marino 5,000 yards type of crazy: It's been replicated before, but not to the extent of OJ.

Keep in mind in 1973, the second leading rusher was John Brockington with 1144 yards. Simpson nearly doubled the output of his closest competitor.🤯 But also at the same time, the Bills made an extraordinary effort to keep Simpsons pace going, almost to the detriment to the rest of the team. He had about sixty carry attempts more than any other rusher in '73. They were a heavy rushing team, even when losing games. See the 1976 clips against Detroit where Simpson set the single game record. That came in a blowout loss to the Lions.

No disrespect to Emmitt, but I don't understand how anyone can consider him the goat rb. It's clear as day he's not as explosive as 10 other backs on this list and the holes he had were massive. I think Cowboy fans are doing a disservice to Larry Allen and that oline by overly uplifting Emmitt and not promoting the fact that they had the greatest oline in history.

Smith wasn't essential in any of their SB wins. 2 blowouts, and O'Donnell threw the last one away. And again, Smith had the best oline in history and the most threatening passing game that defenses had to gameplan for. He's not the best rb ever, and Cowboys fans know it deep down no matter what they say.

Part of why Washington didn’t see a 1,000 yard rusher until the 70’s is because they endured a nearly quarter century long playoff drought and thus weren’t good generally since the season went to 12 let alone 14 games. They also didn’t exactly have the best crop of running backs. There was a Hall of Fame back in Bobby Mitchell in the early 60’s, but he was used as both a runner and receiver before flex was a term.

@@Bladin84 The word “best “in most cases is subjective. A lot of times people say that based on their preference or their bias. With that being said, I don’t believe there’s any all-time running back that ever lived, who was more determined, more driven or had more mental toughness than “sweetness”. He was also among the most versatile. He wasn’t the most talented or gifted, though he was talented and gifted enough to maximize those abilities to the point where he overachieved. He’s the equivalent of what Marvin Hagler was in boxing or what Jerry Rice was to the wide receiver position. There were more talented and gifted guys, but no one was able to maximize what they were given more so than he did.

@@Riles3152 Thats a fair assessment. I do think "best" is a term that gets tossed around all too easily. I typically prefer a gut instinct approach from watching the players in games and anticipating what will happen. By this I mean the old "which person would I trust with the game on the line or in a tight playoff position". While Payton was great in many areas, he is not the game changing or era altering RB I look to when thinking of the greatest of all time. He did win a Superbowl in his career but only led the league once in rushing yards and only once in rushing TDs his entire career. So other than that one season, there was a better running back in the league every single year of his career, not to mention all the years outside of his career. Personally I have a hard time naming someone the goat who spent almost their entire career in second or third place in their own position and typically had a losing record.

@@Bladin84 From 76-86, Walter was no less then a top 3 RB in the league. And arguably the best all things considered. That speaks to longevity and consistency which is RARE for a position so physically demanding as the RB position has ALWAYS been. Even more rare for a RB with as physical a playing style as Walter. Other RB's may have had higher peaks during Payton's career (Earl Campbell 78-80, Eric Dickerson 83-86) but Walter had a LONGER prime. So it really boils down to what you value more, higher peaks or longer primes. And him being on teams with losing records should be extremely contextualized. On pretty much every Bear team he was on until 84, he was essentially ALL they had offensively. For him to have carried those 77 and 79 Bears teams to the playoffs, is nothing short of a testament to Walter's impact. They never had close to a legit franchise QB until Jim McMahon, and even HE was pretty good at best, certainly never great. To hold some of the bad teams he was on against Walter, is an unfair argument TBH.

Texas (Campbell, Dickerson, LT, Peterson) VS. Florida (Smith, James, CJ, Henry) vs. San Diego (Allen, TD, Ricky and Arian). It's crazy how many stud RBs came from SD. Reggie Bush and Rashaan Salaam as well.

Emmitt Smith's 1993 season may be the greatest by a running back... EVER: he only started 13 games, led the league in rushing, won NFL MVP, Super Bowl MVP, and led the Cowboys over the Giants in the season finale to secure home-field advantage AFTER dislocating his shoulder in the first half.

I agree with Emmitt in 1993 being the best season by a running back. Capping it off with a second straight Super Bowl clinched it for me. If QB's are judged by championships, this is how I'd make my pick for RB's. Also, Dallas went 12-4 that year. All four losses were either when Emmitt missed (contract holdout the first two weeks) or failed to finish the game (injury in back to back midseason games).
