[@nickwride2023]

Craig should be in the HoF. The first double thousand running back. First man to score 3 TDs in a Super Bowl. Dangerous, all purpose back.

[@actsismmljcorrectlyobeyed6190]

PREACH!!!

[@dog-thebackwardgod]

He reinvented the position and got 0 credit.

[@loria.buttsesquire3867]

Mr. Craig was a pure DAWG!! Much respect. Def HOF-ish!!!! 💯

[@Mr.mississippi]

Y'all probably font care 😂😂 but this is my cousin

[@deeremeyer1749]

Got a lot of help from fellow Husker Tom Rathman. Without those two there wouldn't have been a 49er dynasty.

[@RichardLegier-qg1bd]

Played with him from grade school through high school. Best running back and human being I've ever been around,humble and unassuming great individual. HOF...absolutely and overdue.

[@BrandonHarlow-n8h]

His son is my friend from high school great family for sure!

[@shugguhsmacks9754]

I call cap on that sir

[@Mr.mississippi]

​@@shugguhsmacks9754I dont care if u dont beleive me but thats my cousin on me he is

[@jarheadjah3747]

I'm a Broncos fan, and let me tell you I hated watching this guy touch the ball. But I was in awe of him when he ran at the same time. Such a violent and graceful runner, dude was one of the best ever.

[@deeremeyer1749]

If it wasn't Craig running by you it was Rathman running over you. And frequently both.

[@paulboxer2863]

One of the all time greats. Changed the game. Always got the job done.

[@huskerfan4life]

Nebraska Cornhusker fans knew. Craig and Rathman at 49ers was amazing.

[@joannleichliter4308]

👍👍

[@deeremeyer1749]

We still know.

[@michaeltoste8871]

The best player not in the HOF. Should absolutely be in! Unbelievable!!!!!!!

[@eromain37]

My fav RB of all times!

[@tonywright282]

These 5 RB’s in this order should be the next 5 RB’s to be enshrined in the Pro Football Hall of Fame no exceptions: Otis (OJ) Anderson, Roger Craig, Corey Dillion, Fred Taylor, Rickey Waters they’ve all waited long enough, end of discussion

[@kenstewart4261]

For sure underrated! I had never even heard of him until today! What a video!!!

[@Thelewisdxb]

Roger Craig was a beast!...I'm from the UK and started watching NFL in my early teems and remember watching him play...what a player. A Total unsung hero of that great 49ers team. What made me sad was that I just watched the documentary Montana " Cool Under Pressure" and they never mentioned him....that was so wrong...the guy was a true great

[@deeremeyer1749]

With fellow Husker Tom Rathman.

[@jamshednabizada424]

Imagine Montana, Rice, and Craig on the same team. They could easily win 3 Super Bowls.

[@wyndonpendergraft]

hmm. I think they did

[@robosdrumworld]

Craig and Joe got three together. They got two with Rice!

[@omnione12]

You put Terrell Davis in the HOF and left this man out? Seriously HOF committee get your S*** together. Terrell Davis 2× Super Bowl champion (XXXII, XXXIII) Super Bowl MVP (XXXII) NFL Most Valuable Player (1998) 2× NFL Offensive Player of the Year (1996, 1998) 3× First-team All-Pro (1996-1998) 3× Pro Bowl (1996-1998) NFL rushing yards leader (1998) 2× NFL rushing touchdowns leader (1997, 1998) 6 years Rushing yards: 7,607 Yards per carry: 4.6 Rushing touchdowns: 60 Rodger Craig 3× Super Bowl champion (XIX, XXIII, XXIV) NFL Offensive Player of the Year (1988) First-team All-Pro (1988) Second-team All-Pro (1985) 4× Pro Bowl (1985, 1987-1989) NFL receptions leader (1985) WHAT RB HAS EVER LEAD IN RECEPTIONS!!!!

[@Coolhand1976]

Roger made the WCO work, the most underrated running back in NFL history. I mean he was a fullback like the first 4 or 5 years. 😂

[@johnnystancil5272]

Crying 😢 shame Craig should already have been in the Hof Rip Bill wash

[@josem.7183]

100% agree high stepping Roger Craig belongs in the hall of fame... Just don't you ever try and knock Terell Davis down, as he was a beast in those short years , if he would've not got injured just imagine

[@HappySingh-ri9qh]

Hands of a wide receiver, legs of a running back, shoulders of a safety, feet of a dancer, vision of an eagle. With a V6 twin turbo.

[@gharte1808]

Roger The Pioneer. Showed that you could win multiple World Championships with a RB that could catch as well as run and block. Should have been in the Hall of Fame long time ago.

[@dakotahayden6937]

One of the all time greats.

[@carlosdcardona5676]

Me even as a die hard PATRIOTS FAN Roger Craig is one of my favorite RBs of all time !!!! I put him up in the RANKS with Barry Sanders, Walter Payton, Bo Jackson, Herschel Walker and so on!!!!! I just loved the RELENTLESS style of running this man had !!!!!

[@MarcrloMeza-Rivas-me3de]

Uncle Roger Craig was a soldier,yo!😎🤙🍻

[@againstthegrain4894]

He'd be so good in today's game as well. Definitely a HOF!

[@gibsonamstutz1588]

RC should absolutely be in the HOF. A spectacular running back and all around leader

[@TheRaginghalfasian]

he was great on passes, i grew up watching him, so good.

[@robosdrumworld]

I’m a Rams fan who couldn’t stand him. That guy use to abuse my Rams, but he absolutely should’ve been in!! That guy was fearless for real!!

[@Moose46316]

Great player and an even better man

[@javierrobles6770]

That rub against the Rams was power, speed, and agility in one run!! BEAST!!

[@jessealvarez6324]

Roger was a beast!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@Amilnes78]

Crazy how versatile he was. You could put him at hb, fb, or even wr and he wouldve been a superstar

[@savagecat35]

Dude was a beast. He could do it all, and did you notice the hands? Making the catches some of them one handed without the assistance of the modern-day stick'em gloves

[@Probo_34]

Roger Craig should definitely be I. The hall of fame

[@elinovak3770]

Mr. All purpose yards

[@bullitt65]

HOF no doubt, 1st 1000/1000 back and he is not in ??? Montana, Rice, Lott, AND Craig should be in that conversation. He made the offense roll day in and day out. They don't win 3 SB without him trouncing defenses. He was the magic that made everything else work

[@actsismmljcorrectlyobeyed6190]

The high stepper!

[@StreetSmartMillionaire]

Just amazing.

[@DocJones2020]

I’ve had 2. L/R knees replaced. In my 30’s trying to run like Craig 33. I was lucky enough to grow up watching them in Candlestick. He should of been in. 1st. Round! He was (Perfection.) He was like a well oiled machine. He was ahead of this time. To this day, no one runs like him. If he were in the NFL now. He’d break records. He has “3” Super Bowl Rings! “3!” I don’t think they let him in because they have liver spots prune faces nasty skin. & they knew his skin wouldn’t crack. & he’d always represent. Beautiful Melanin. We can’t win for losing. Haters. 😏

[@cmqguy]

Craig is actually a semifinalist to make it as a senior member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton. I hope he makes it because his getting into the Hall of Fame is long overdue. His Hall of fame candidacy is to be voted on next year.

[@wyndonpendergraft]

Defense: I'll tackle him solo. Craig: Bet

[@johnmcguire8772]

Time for him to be in the Hall.

[@debaser_666]

Only player to be voted to the Pro Bowl at Fullback and Tailback. All-Decade Team 1980s, only player not elected to HOF (Payton, Riggins, Dickerson) NFL Receiving champion in 1985. 92 Receptions 1st player to have 1,000 rushing and 1,000 receiving in same season Single game Super Bowl touchdown record 4 Pro Bowls from '83 to '89 1988 NFL Offensive Player of the Year 2X All Pro 5X All Conference Not in Hall of Fame

[@gregtynan6761]

Underrated!!! Definitely a hall of fame player!!!

[@johnnystancil5272]

Roger Craig should already be a Hof hand picked by the Legendary Bill Wash!!!!

[@BazookaTooth707]

I love the high step into thr end zone during the Superbowl? Should've ended with tha imo. But I love the video regardless.

[@zuozhen4758]

Back in the days Craig was a Ram killer

[@davidsekowski1710]

If he isn’t in the HOF they should not have a HOF.. Roger Craig was a game changer and the spark in the 49ers offense for years. He was a scoring threat all over the field and it took 3 guys minimum to bring him down.

[@bethfish7709]

Those days........

[@deeremeyer1749]

Not the fastest guy but he had a burst at the line that turned 5 yards into 50 a bunch of times. HUSKER POWER!

[@MarcrloMeza-Rivas-me3de]

First football player to score three touchdowns in a Superbowl,yo!🏈

[@ChicagoMike777]

The HOF voters should be mocked and ridiculed for omitting this guy.

[@gmoney8585]

Pro bowl as fb/hb😮

[@383joaquin]

awesome baby, simply amazing, beautiful to watch ❤

[@justinastor4080]

Came to this video after the CMC trade.

[@gmoney8585]

2024 semifinalist these idiots should finally put him in the difficulty of 1000/1000 club he was FIRST 3 freakin players in history

[@pretty208]

So awesome 🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯🥂🥂🥂🥂🥂🥂🥂🥂🥂🥊🥊🥊🥊🥊🥊🥊🥊🥊📸📸📸📸📸📸📸📸📸📸🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍸🍸🍸🍸🍸🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓🍷🍷🍷🍷🍷👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍⛽⛽⛽⛽⛽⛽⛽⛽⛽⛽🤐🤐🤐🤐🤐🤬🤬🤬🤬

[@drewman567]

And to think he had to do it against guys like Steve Atwater, LT, and then R. Lott in practice, and have Bill Walsh as the HC,lol....he deserves it!!!!!!!

[@briandunmore6030]

Now I see some Adrian Peterson....

[@charliec2966]

If Walter Payton & Christian McCafferty had a baby.

[@KidFresh71]

I'll echo what others are saying in the comment section: Roger Craig is probably the best NFL player not in the football Hall of Fame. It's time.

[@OGDubb]

Davenport Iowa Native 💯💯

[@Longenecker1776]

How is this guy not in the HOF ?

[@terranceswan5119]

Unbelievable he's not in the hof! wtf!

[@dustyroze150]

besides Bo & Barry Roger my favorite! 🏈

[@RiceCracker89]

Is there a Ronnie Lott video coming?

[@geeskin5750]

Not in the Hall of Fame yet? As they say on sports radio c'mon man

[@Contramundum429]

High leg action

[@BroMaxExtra]

Awsome

[@aaroncorbett6352]

Isaiah Pacheco reminds me a lot of Craig. Hard, angry man to bring down.

[@davidson2004fatboy]

WHY IS THIS MAN NOT IN the HALL of FAME ??? PLEASE ANSWER

[@DrDangerNerd]

KC Chiefs fan here. Roger Craig is one of the reasons why I DO NOT respect the votes for the Hall of Fame. No ufckin' way he should not be in Canton. Total BS!!

[@elinovak3770]

Mr. All purpose yards

[@williebriscoe2400]

Real football

[@ab9957]

The run he made at 2:33--anyone know if that was in 1985 or a different year?

[@joedriskill2688]

1988…it’s the same game as his fantastic run where Taylor and Rice are blocking downfield. It was Craig’s first year full time at HB instead of FB. Walsh told him after 1987, we would start as the feature back with Rathman at FB. Craig won the Offensive Player of the Year with 1500+ rushing yards and over 500 receiving. *Footnote: Tales from the San Francisco 49ers Sideline by Roger Craig #33ShouldBeInTheHOF

[@g5hunned381]

#NinerEmpire

[@charliec2966]

Ahead of his time

[@joseroman2394]

so you dont' know Jerry Rice?

[@Mr.mississippi]

Beleive me or not hes my cousin

[@Stifler80]

Montana was an average qb who was made great by the firepower around him. Marino would have been in the bowl every year.

[@tet2755]

lol @2:09 that Rams linebacker is yelling at ref and pointing to the offensive lineman standing near the backline of the endzone. 100% ineligible receiver downfield -- its not even close. The fact that the ref is standing there and not calling it is comical.
