Curtis Martin was like #7 for me...I'll unveil as we go...man, you guys are young... This is an important thing. I feel like it's easy to go by numbers. So I leaned heavily on real time viewing as well as personal impact and entertainment value.

3 years* + Stanford + good looks = #1. @ck , Yeah, fuck college and you know it. He's a really good receiver that's starting to become a pretty good RB. I can't wait to see this hot garbage (for everyone). I only looked at NFL stats, because in college you're not playing the best of the best every week.

I tell ya. If you'd drop the NFL from the name of our next Top 10, you can bet that a certain Saskatchewan Roughrider would've been right at the top of my list.

Anyone can look up and crunch numbers, right?

I certainly did not go by numbers...I have some faves in there.

Of course there's going to be recency bias. I'm sure NFL Films footage among other things are readily available on Youtube. I'm still waiting for that guy who put Jim Brown on his list then looked at the footage and discovered he was a stumbling bum.

I'm still waiting for that guy who put Jim Brown on his list then looked at the footage and discovered he was a stumbling bum. What? No he wasn’t. He was just so big and fast nobody could tackle him. He ranked high on my list but only because of how crazy his stats are and the fact he’s still a legend to this day. The rest of my list is mostly players I watched since the late 80s with Walter Payton thrown in because I felt I had to include him.

I often see comments where people avoid putting legends on their lists because they haven't seen enough footage to study and dissect their play.

The only 2 backs on my list I didn't see play live are Jim Brown and OJ. Their footage speaks for itself though.

Yeah, I had Martin in my first batch of 10 then he slipped to around the 13-15 range. He was consistency personified.

Also, ya'll better pay respect to my man Eddie George!
A lot of Curtis Martin talk, but not enough Eddie George! And unfortunately, Frank Gore will continue to be the most underrated RB in the history of the NFL.
Also @ck, CMC is changing the way football is played. He was literally the Panthers offense this past season and the year before he had another awesome season. He also had a very good rookie year too. That's 3 years of brilliance and he's just getting started. Show the man the respect he deserves. Greatest white RB ever. Move over Mike Alstott!

Well this list is already interesting!
Also I had a mix of both , can’t go by just stats but thankfully there’s this thing called TV and Internet that allows us to visit different eras.

John Riggins says "hi" Though I do believe McCaffery will surpass him if he stays healthy.
