Sayers lives more on legendary potential and skill that outshone his contemporaries more than longevity or durability, that much is obvious.
But his potential and skill is hard to visualize in contemporary terms.
Best I could imagine for a Chiefs fan of today, is picture if you had Jamaal Charles' most productive season and Devin Hester's, in the same player.
The thing that differentiates his from other young RB phenoms was how he could split defenders and completely change the field in full stride.
People are STILL agape how Michael Vick and Lamar Jackson did something vaguely similar once or twice in their careers.
