NFL Network: Top 10 Power Backs of All Time

Recommended Posts

Great show on the NFL network this weekend. One hour in length, it highlights the ten greatest power running backs of all time.

It comes on again at 4 am, est. And one more time, Saturday at 6 pm.

Skins fans will be happy. Crank up that Diesel!

1. Brown (you didn't bring Jim Brown down, the time ran out on the game); 2. Riggins; 3. Campbell (although, to be honest, I think he was better than Riggo - Riggo never led the league in rushing 3 straight years); other guys (can't remember the order) Okoye, Alstott, Bronco Nagurski, Czonka, Bettis, Marion Mottley, and one more, damn. Wasn't Duckett. LOL

Jim Brown of course came in first.

Riggins came in second, which was awesome.

He beat Csonka, which he is always pretty even with.

What was really cool was seeing some of the old highlights, not only of Riggins which we are all familiar with....but of Earl Campbell, who came in third.

My God, Earl Campbell was a freaking beast. His thighs were the size of tree trunks.

cp's working his way up....

Like others have said, CP is not a power back.

Brandon Jacobs, Jamal Lewis, Steven Jackson, Marion Barber are power backs.

It's not a knock against CP, though; LT, Faulk, Sanders are/were not power backs either. Just different style.
