    Better Running Back in there prime Barry Sanders or Adrian Peterson?

    Thursday, August 6, 2009, 01:43 PM EST [NFL]

    Barry Sanders played on lousy football teams and still managed 15000 yard in 10 seasons.If you take the time to think about his surrounding cast you probably remember Herman Moore and no one else.Scott Mitchell was the quarterback on some of them lousy Lions teams and despite all the sub par talent around Barry he still produced.

    Adrian Peterson has a deep threat in Berion,he has a running back to relieve him who would start for most teams Chester Taylor,and Bryant McKinnie anchors a all pro line.

    I would take Barry Sanders over every other running back ever,I saw clips of Jim Brown but i would take Sanders anyway.If Sanders played for Minnesota he would average 2200 yards a season.

    So who is Better Sanders or  Peterson?

    Let me qualify those last statements. Barry Sanders had an incredible ability to make guys miss him, or out run them. However, Brown & Dickerson could either run by you, OR run you over. I have many running backs listed ahead of Sanders, albeit he was a great talent.

    Jim Brown is the best running back ever. A little before my time though. The best back I ever saw was Eric Dickerson.

    Barry Sanders the best ever? Please!

    I'm not saying anything new, but I agree with most that Barry Sanders was the greatest ever. He had magic powers and I've never seen anyone like him.

    Barry Sanders is the best. As John Madden put it, "Barry was one of those guys who was never 'IT' when playing tag on the playground."
    He wasn't just fast, he was quick and could stop or turn on a dime. One defensive LB claims he actually saw Barry split into two people on one play. Haha!
    I remember opening day of the 1995 Season, the Lions at Pittsburgh. Barry was sweeping to the left, Hall of Fame CB Rod Woodson closing in fast.. then Barry stopped on a dime, twitched right and took off. Woodson blew his knee out trying to catch him.
    On top of an excellent athlete, Barry was modest and respectful to the game. He never pounded his chest. When he scored, he ALWAYS tossed the ball to the referee. Always.

    I thought the title to Barry's book was fitting. "Now you see me..."
