Football The most underrated and forgotten.... - Page 3

.....running back.

A 25-10 long jumper*** while at Long Beach State, his son Eric an NCAA Champion 27-8 the best ever by an NFLer to be.

Three time pro bowler.

Speaking of Eric....

The guy returned 10 punts to score, wow!

Father/son RB's....

The Barbers
The Sanders

Brothers

Walter/Eddie Payton
Art/Benny Malone
Gale/Ron Sayers
Jewerl /Ken Thomas....a Chief

Another forgotten but great RB

Duane Thomas his blocking back while at West Texas State, a school that has given the pro rasslin' biz about a dozen Buffalo footballers turn rasslers.

Only Jim Brown and Bobby Mitchell (Big10 sprint/hurdles champ) on a par with the thunder & lightnin' we saw with Larry Csonka & Mercury Morris.

When Jim Brown walked away from pro football for Hollywood the Browns had a punt returner named Leroy Kelly......

***about what baseball legend Jackie Robinson jumped while at Pasadena City, his older bro Mack a 1936 Olympic 200m silver medalist.

I totally agree he was a stud especially for his size. Far stronger than he should have been at that size.

Kenny Easley UCLA's Ronnie Lott, the guy was a ultra stud, I need a video.

That highlight reel shows his interceptions, but I don't think that was his real strength. He destroyed receivers. I think he prevented a lot of receptions due to the intimidation factor of knowing he was going to blow you up.

If not for the attempted murder charges, he might still be playing.

Marion Butts.
Plus the chargers guys just had great names (Natrone Means, Marion Butts) in the AFCW era of big backs. I used to go to their games and always hated what they did to us. Then have to listen to “Hacksaw” all week on sports radio 610.

MacArthur "Truck" Lane loved that guy he personified Marty Schottenheimer type back. Truck started as a linebacker switched to running back and played with the mentality of a linebacker. He would take you straight up and on usually dealing the Pain. Probably the toughest RB the chiefs ever had. He ran for 144 yards at age 36 for chiefs in a 1978 playoff loss to the Bills. Still a record in NFL for oldest player running for most years in a playoff game.
