O.J. was arguably the best player in the league at any position when he played…the Bills were a shit franchise during his tenure there…

I first became aware of OJ at a track meet in Fresno he would run a leg on that SFCC 4x1 team.

While at USC he took 6th in the NCAA 100 and 6th in the 60 and ran a leg on the Trojans WORLD RECORD 4x1 team.

Not sure I go with him ever being the best NFL however, and yes the Bills sucked back then.

Classic Thunder & Lightnin'

Larry Csonka & Mercury Morris

[Sweater of AV]

Kansas....John Riggins Redskins****

Have you lost your damn mind?

 

[Sir Elzio Dennick]

Have you lost your damn mind?

I don't blame ya, here's what happened.

Riggins does have big numbers something The Kansas Comet lacks because of his short career due to injury.

i had to go with a fellow Hall of Famer with FAR superior stats,


People always tell me...........bullshit.....when I tell them he had a brother faster than he was, his older bro Roger a world ranked sprinter, Gale was a long jumper.

We're talking about the best runningbacks, not accumulation stats.

These kids and their "wikipedia knowledge." The icing on the cake is "Gale was a long jumper."

Pitt......Curtis Martin Jets ****

Pitt - Tony Dorsett


ALSO please add:
Tennessee - Jamal Lewis

Riggins has over 11,000 rushing yards, Sayers less than 7000 that is simply too big a difference.

Yes I know Sayers was incredible but less productive.
