emmit smith will be the first player in history to hold the rushing record, an not even be classified as one of the top 3 backs ever.....remember I told you that when you tryin to tell your kids who the greatest was an they are laughin at you
LMAO @ that one.

Kev-Ski...folks...Emmitt left his stiff arm in the early 90's...& I've only seen him bull over a handful of small DB's in his PRIME. He's more of a slider anyways...avoiding the contact is what he is best at.

Emmitt is not the most talented running back that has ever played, but he is the most durable. He made up with his smarts and elusivness what he lacked in size and speed. You gotta give the man his due.

Could you imagine Barry with the line Emmit had? Walter Payton's record would have been demolished.....

better yet could you imagine Barry with a good team period that had a good Quarterback and good receivers....that would open up the running game soo damn much, Terrell Davis had John Elway, Emmitt Smith had Troy Aikman, you can go on and on, who did Barry Sanders have? a bunch of sorry ass bums at the QB position. I would of loved to see him on just a half way decent team with a good QB

have you been watchin cowboy games????? what emmitt lacked in size an speed.....he made up with LARRY ALLEN, no smarts an elusivness needed there homie

most durable back = you play every game

emmitt missed games, I still remember the bears dumpin him on his head....he missed most of the season that, an some of the next year

Barry didnt miss games, Payton didnt miss games, Brown didnt miss games



an Grimm its not just Barry that has no qb, its all the BEST (not great) RB's that had shitty teams, thats what made them the best....teams keyed on them only an still couldnt stop them

before Dan Marino came along Fran Tarkenton held the record for maost Career TD passes..dis that make him the best QB ever?? NO...he is a good QB and everyone recognizes his as a great QB butfar from the best....same thing with Emitt Smith...just cuz he holds a record doent just automatically make him the best ever...top 10 of all time definately, top 5 maybe....he is a savage and has played hurt...remember when he seperated his shoulder and came back and ran for like 130 the next week...but ive also seen him get sucked up by linebackers...but if you wanna see the greatest backs...watch some film of Jim Brown,Walter Payton,and Barry Sanders....and if you have time....OJ Simpson,Gale Sayers,Earl Cambell, and Eric Dickerson.

Davis is going to announce his retirement this week. Payton will always be the best ever in my book. No Emmitt is not a scrub, but I would not put him in the top 5 of all time. And just for the record,
Payton
Brown
Sayers
Simpson
Sanders
I would also take
Dickerson
Campbell
Before Emmitt
Not a knock on Emmitt, its not bad being the 8th best RB of the history of football.

The most games Emmitts ever missed in a season is 2. And that was cuz of a holdout. Dont know what season u talkin bout.

TD is sitting out a season on IR and if nothing improves he will retire.He still has not officialy retired.He left the door slightly open as did the Broncos for not cutting him.He will probubly make his announcement after the season if nothing improves.I still do not doubt this man returns to the field.

If he returns to the field, he is a Moron. I understand the love for the game and him not knowing anything else, but if he comes back, he is gonna fuck up his knees even worse. Why limp around the rest of your life for a game. He has plenty of money to last him and his family the rest of their lives. Take it and leave.....
