Bettis was a midget too, but built like a fucking Abrahms. He was fun to watch when he was younger and could get up to speed but it seemed like most the last 6-7 years he enjoyed cheeseburgers a bit too much. He didn't get fast enough to really wreck people on the open field.
LOL, I don't have to change anything, you can like what you like. Earl Campbell played so long ago, I don't even think they had TV back then.
I never watched games via smoke signal.
Marshawn Lynch was strong and tenacious, but he is a fucking midget. I don't even think he is 6', most RB aren't. That only makes for so much violence in a performance.
Brandon Jacobs was my favorite, aside from the fact that he is the Giants all time rushing TD leader, because he is the biggest RB ever to play the position for an extended period. He was 6'4" 265 lbs.
He is the only RB I have heard DB's straight say in interview that if he had a full head of steam, they just would not try to tackle him by themselves for fear of injury and try to check him to a sideline.
Being that big honestly gives you a lot of disadvantages as a RB, but it makes for some fun to watch football.
Derrick Henry is a lot smaller at 6' 3" and 240lbs, but still he is big enough that he fucking crushes corners and blows up safeties. Linebackers trying to one on one with him are taking a chance. Really the fat fuck 300lb Tackles are the only dudes he can't nuke if given a clear shot. Reminds me of BJ in his golden days and it makes me smile.
