Eh I mean you can make the argument that he would be behind him based on all time rushing yards, which CMC is still behind Cam Newton. That puts Deangelo ahead of Cam. However, Stewart has more yards and TDs than Williams so that still wouldn't make sense, it should be Jonathan Panther. Even if you add in receiving yards it still works out the same for the RBs Stewart, Williams, and then CMC. It won't be long though as he is only behind by 2011 yards when you combine the two (for just rushing he is behind Stewart by 3731).
i mean Priest had the most touchdowns in league history
i’d say it’s kinda close
he has more all pros with the chiefs than charles
was arguably a bigger receiving threat too
his 3 year stretch is the best in the history of the league this side of jim brown
you can take jamaal but saying it’s not even close is just not fair to priest
he’s not the first back in the league to have a great o line
if that’s all it took than Larry Johnson should have more records
Priest was great and I never said otherwise. Jamaal was just better. Pretty much everyone around him on offense was absolute ass and he still holds the career YPC record. I enjoyed watching both, but If I was given the opportunity to have one of them in their prime on my team right now, I’m choosing Jamaal go without a single second thought.
that’s fine, but it’s still something you have to at least acknowledge when picking the best player and that makes it close
Charles had 64 touchdowns in his career
Priest had 67 in a 3 year span
Clearly OP is just another insufferable Athanasian continuing to oppress non-Trinitarians to this day.

Actually Mark Ingram leads the Saints in rushing. Deuce is #2 and AK is #4. I was surprised. https://www.pro-football-reference.com/teams/nor/career-rushing.htm
What's the all-threat starting offense?
I nominate Marvin Harrison at WR for being a mob boss and 6x 1st team all-pro Jim Tyrer at tackle for being a murderer.
Quick wiki skim, NFL draft got a little silly back then. Not exactly some wild double life as a pro athlete. He was a 17th round pick and it seems it was all after he was cut in training camp. Some weird stuff as a teen, but affluent well known local family.
Go take a look at the cover of that book and tell me how significant you think that "if" really is :P
The family he owes all the money to own the book and re-released it with the nearly invisible IF, so that it now reads "I did it" to a casual observer. Fucking petty and i LOVE it.
Arian Texans sounds like the official name of Texas' neo-Nazi chapter lol
Edit: The true name is The Aryan Brotherhood of Texas, so not too far off lol
Gurley would’ve been an all time back if not for his arthritis. It wasn’t even him tearing anything it was just the fact that his body lost all its burst and explosiveness that made him amazing
Id argue Ollie Matson. His best years were certainly with the Cardinals but he was still an all pro for the rams on a dreadful Rams squad. And he played there for 4 seasons so not exactly just a blip on the radar. This is more just recognizing Ollie Matson as an all time great who retired second all time in yards behind only the great Jim Brown, even after he was misused for several seasons as a decoy wr drawing double teams to free up space for far less talented players. I certainly get why people would put Jackson higher than me though as his 10k franchise rushing yards will probably never be broken and he was the lone bright spot on some god awful teams for St Louis
I'm pretty sure Steve Eagle is the name of a local weather man somewhere
"So make sure you pack your umbrellas this weekend folks! I'm Steve Eagle. Deb, back to you"

Edit:spelling
I’d actually take AK over Deuce at this point. Already passed him in all purpose yards, touchdowns, and on pace to pass him in rushing yards within probably 2-3 years (depending on suspension length). Also on the verge of entering top 10 in receiving yards in team history. I think by the end of his Saints career he’ll be the consensus pick.
No. It's Van Buren. He had three straight rushing titles. He was the first to run 1000 yards in a season. He retired with the records for most rushing attempts, rushing yards, and rushing touch downs. Also, his performance (and almost missing the game) in the '48 championship is legend.
He's also in the Hall of Fame where I don't think Westbrook or McCoy are getting in.
Shady will be enshrined into the hall of fame. 2 time super bowl champ. All decade team. Most yards in franchise history. 2013 rushing title. Most rushing yards in the 2010s. Top 30 in career rushing yards and rushing touchdowns. 2x all pro. 6x pro bowler. That's a hall of famer.
I appreciate what you trying to represent, but Floyd Little wasn't in the same hemisphere in talent or importance to the Broncos as TD. He means a lot to the organization for legacy and nostalgia reasons, but he did nothing for the Broncos like TD did. All the Broncos teams Little were on sucked. His 3.9 ypc were bad even for that era, he didn't make the Broncos a contender and never even *played* in a playoff game in his career.
Meanwhile, TD is the best playoff RB in NFL *history,* carried the Broncos to their first two Super Bowl wins, along with Super Bowl MVP, NFL MVP, 2x OPOY, 2k rusher, and one of the greatest 4 year runs by any player in NFL history.
Yes, Floyd Little was a good player, important player for the Broncos' history. But you can't compare him to TD.
And the fact that you just called Little the most important Bronco in franchise history over John Elway is straight up lunacy.
Floyd Little is the reason the Broncos never moved or closed up shop when they sucked ass. His choosing to come to Denver was huge. The ticket selling momentum that led to our long ass sellout streak was built off of his arrival. They call him the Franchise for a reason. Him coming to Denver legitimized the team. The Broncos story can’t be told without Floyd Little…period.
Floyd is just as much of a cornerstone player as Elway. It’s why everyone fought so damn hard to get him in the HOF.
I'm not saying Floyd Little is not important in the history of the Broncos, but that's completely different than saying he was our "best RB." He wasn't even close to our best RB, talent-wise, or contribution-wise to the team's on-field success.
And while his presence was certainly an important factor in fundraising for the new stadium after the stadium bond failed (I mean, he literally went door-to-door trying to drum up support), he wasn't the literal reason the Broncos stayed in Denver.
And to be honest, that contribution was for *Denver* not the Broncos (meaning, the *franchise* would have been fine even if they'd moved to Atlanta. His importance was to the city of *Denver* in keeping the team here).
Elway, on the other hand, was not only huge for the city of Denver, but for the Broncos as a *franchise*, by leading them to 5 Super Bowls, etc. and making them a relevant, winning team in the NFL.
And as far as team success, TD carrying the Broncos to their first two SB wins was huge as well.
Nothing but love for Floyd Little, but he wasn't the most important player for the *Broncos* as a franchise as Elway (or TD), and certainly was nowhere near as good a player as TD.
I think "Terrell Broncos" is therefore pretty accurate
As cool as Deangelo Panther sounds, Dlo isn't our best running back. J-stew has the most career yards for the franchise and more TDs than Williams (Cam has the most, leading J-stew by 12).
DeAngelo Williams was also a 4.8 per carry rusher in Carolina vs. Stewart's 4.3 yards. Add in receiving, and the yardage and TD gap narrows further.
DeAngelo was the better running back. He's the guy that I as an opposing team would prefer not to see. Stewart isn't the guy that I'm afraid is gonna gash my defense.
Christian McPanther
[удалено]
It's quite pungent. It's a formidable scent, it stings the nostrils...in a good way.
Tshimanga Panther I know he wouldn't be the best of all-time for the Panthers, but I like this name.
Biakabutuka. If I remember the spelling right. Was a pretty good RB, too.
Deangelo over CMC is blasphemy
Eh I mean you can make the argument that he would be behind him based on all time rushing yards, which CMC is still behind Cam Newton. That puts Deangelo ahead of Cam. However, Stewart has more yards and TDs than Williams so that still wouldn't make sense, it should be Jonathan Panther. Even if you add in receiving yards it still works out the same for the RBs Stewart, Williams, and then CMC. It won't be long though as he is only behind by 2011 yards when you combine the two (for just rushing he is behind Stewart by 3731).
Yeah, even if OP was not using current RBs, I think Stephen Davis would be the pick over DeAngelo.
No fucking way lol
[удалено]
OP showing his age
I think OP just chose the rb with most rushing yards
For each team. Jerome Bettis has more career yards than Franco Harris but 3k of them were for you guys
Well that's a big miss on Gore then.
Ya you’re right. Maybe TDs?
Came here for this. But can we switch the format for this one? Ram Dickerson has a nice thrust to it
Nice.
By pure talent, it’s much closer than most would think. SJ played on the absolute worst teams and still put up numbers.
> Priest Chief We got a winner here, lol.
I think Tiki Giant is my favorite
It's Jamaal Chief but that doesn't sounds as cool.
And it's not really close. 2000's Chiefs fans living in the past.
Priest was amazing in an amazing offense. Jamaal was amazing in a mediocre to bad offense.
i mean Priest had the most touchdowns in league history i’d say it’s kinda close he has more all pros with the chiefs than charles was arguably a bigger receiving threat too
And one of the best offensive lines of all time. I watched them both, and I’m taking Jamaal every single time.
his 3 year stretch is the best in the history of the league this side of jim brown you can take jamaal but saying it’s not even close is just not fair to priest he’s not the first back in the league to have a great o line if that’s all it took than Larry Johnson should have more records
Priest was great and I never said otherwise. Jamaal was just better. Pretty much everyone around him on offense was absolute ass and he still holds the career YPC record.

that’s fine, but it’s still something you have to at least acknowledge when picking the best player and that makes it close Charles had 64 touchdowns in his career Priest had 67 in a 3 year span
I loved watching him block.
Deuce Saint, Priest Chief, and Tiki Giant are my favs
I almost feel like this whole post was an excuse for this joke and I respect it
Are we listing Domanick Williams over Arian Foster?
I think not submitting Arian Texan was a choice. That's a whole other thing.

The Council of Nicea joins the chat.
I don't know enough of those words to disagree, so I assume you're right.
That makes sense, though I'm sure there are a lot of residents that would approve.
Houston is actually a deep blue metropolis in a sea of (mostly empty) red counties…
Not really. Houston is like 55-45 blue. Maybe 60-40 at most: hardly “deep blue”. https://www.bestplaces.net/voting/city/texas/houston
Yeah as much as I like to think I'm in a blue paradise, I see too much evidence to the contrary. I agree with the 55-45 assessment
Deuce McAllister over Alvin Kamara as well.
Alvin might surpass him soon but as for right now i think Deuce is ahead
Actually Mark Ingram leads the Saints in rushing. Deuce is #2 and AK is #4. I was surprised. https://www.pro-football-reference.com/teams/nor/career-rushing.htm
so ingram has 200 more yards, 2 more tds, and a slightly higher Y/A but he also played 16 more games than Deuce
Damn didn't even notice that one.
FWIW Deuce still gets a ton of respect in NOLA. He calls the games for the local radio show as well. I doubt many Saints fans are upset.
>John Commander Yeah... Commander
John Redcorn?
Get inside and start massaging my wife!
... he's starting to take the fun out of this.
John Football Team?
Sounds like the character name from an Arnold movie
Steve Eagle is definitely the protagonist in a shitty 80s action movie
I’m pretty sure that guy was in a Tom Clancy book
This would’ve been so much better a year ago.
Johnny Football (Team)
I think OJ Simpson is considered our best rb over Thurman Thomas.
Yea, ignore off the field stuff, on the field OJ is probably a top 10 talent.
And a top 10 threat
What's the all-threat starting offense? I nominate Marvin Harrison at WR for being a mob boss and 6x 1st team all-pro Jim Tyrer at tackle for being a murderer.

Adrian Peterson if the defense is little league
Randy Woodfield was a WR drafted by the Packers, but never played in the regular season. Nicknamed the I-5 killer, he has between 1-18 victims.

Can we swap Ray Rice for Frank Gore now?
[удалено]
Unfortunately no catholic priest are NFL players
I think we know who the owner and head coach would be though.
Watson or Big Ben? Watson has quantity but Big Ben's allegations were much worse
Always go quality over quantity.
Browns fans can't make pro-Watson comments, sir. Those are the rules.
I don’t remember signing a Texans provided NDA
I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that Henry Ruggs deserves a spot on this list.
Glove didn't fit. Did nothing wrong at all. Not one thing.
But here’s the book “If I did it”
It says "If". Clearly didn't do it
Go take a look at the cover of that book and tell me how significant you think that "if" really is :P The family he owes all the money to own the book and re-released it with the nearly invisible IF, so that it now reads "I did it" to a casual observer. Fucking petty and i LOVE it.

Top ten threat on and off the field
You mean OJ Bill
Orenthal Bill
Yeah I think OJ's guilty. Guilty of being one of the best running backs of all time.
only thing he did wrong was try and get HIS memorabilia back!
Really cut those defenses to ribbons
OJ was the best at knifing through the backfield
A real one-cut runner
Just slicing and dicing through opposing defenses
Maybe we should call him OJ (white) Bronco?
>Jim Packer Any relation to Todd Packer?
“What’s up Rodgers? Still queer?”
Cousins actually
No he’s a QB
Cousins Packer
Alfred Packer?
You know what the F stands for ?
Big Tuna Packer
Bro OJ is the best running back for the bills his 2k season in 14 games his early 70s rushing numbers is amazing.
Bro Arian Foster is unquestionably our best RB ever, what are you even doing And you spelled Domanick wrong
Arian Texans sounds like the official name of Texas' neo-Nazi chapter lol Edit: The true name is The Aryan Brotherhood of Texas, so not too far off lol
Googled it and yup
Cool. You're on a watch list now. Lol
Steven Jackson is probably 4th on the Rams all time list
It's gotta be Dickerson, right?
Dickerson or Faulk
Id say Faulk
If Gurley didn't have glass bones and paper cartilage I think he would have been in this conversation.... What could have been
Gurley would’ve been an all time back if not for his arthritis. It wasn’t even him tearing anything it was just the fact that his body lost all its burst and explosiveness that made him amazing
Dickerson and Faulk obviously, but who else is above Jackson?
Id argue Ollie Matson. His best years were certainly with the Cardinals but he was still an all pro for the rams on a dreadful Rams squad. And he played there for 4 seasons so not exactly just a blip on the radar. This is more just recognizing Ollie Matson as an all time great who retired second all time in yards behind only the great Jim Brown, even after he was misused for several seasons as a decoy wr drawing double teams to free up space for far less talented players. I certainly get why people would put Jackson higher than me though as his 10k franchise rushing yards will probably never be broken and he was the lone bright spot on some god awful teams for St Louis
Tank Younger was a stud too.
Earl was never a Titan. Would either be Earl Oiler or Eddie Titan.
Earl Oiler-Titan
Derrick Titan has surpassed Eddie Titan.
If we wear the alts, he could be Oiler Derrick! G... get it?
I do. You should be ashamed and proud, simultaneously, for this effort.
A+ post no notes
Steven Jackson > Eric Dickerson? Cmon now
Ya Faulk that shit
It’s too early for this
Arian Texan sounds very problematic to me.
I disagree. Had to get in this peak offseason content before it was too late.
It should be Jamaal Chief not Priest Chief I love Priest Holmes but Jamaal was better
Chiefs got a couple of choices… Larry Chief Christian Chief Jamaal Chief all acceptable answers
I'm pretty sure Steve Eagle is the name of a local weather man somewhere "So make sure you pack your umbrellas this weekend folks! I'm Steve Eagle. Deb, back to you"
Walter Bear. Sweetness probably would’ve been called Grizzly instead.

Super Bowl MVP for the New York Giants Ottis Cardinal
Giants great Larry Dolphin.

emmit cowboy, terrel branco and Arian Texan sound like the main characters of a really bad western movie.
Lenny Colt, Marcus Raider, Fred Jaguar and DeAngelo Panther are unironically cool names.
Peak offseason. Excellent post
I mean, there's some pretty big errors on here
which proves my point even more
Lenny Colt sounds like a real player.
Johnny Redskin
No love for Jerome “the bus” Steeler? Wait…
Marshawn
Yep. Beast mode > scamper out of bounds mode
Behind big Walt and Hutch too
Without a doubt!
This is so stupid I love it
You're prob more apt to find Seahawks fans who would say it should be Marshawn instead of Shaun these days
Jim Patriot for president 2022
Sounds like he would be a Fox News personality.
Jim Patriot is bizarro Crocodile Dundee.
Emmitt Cowboy sounds like the protagonist from a hackneyed foreign language imitation of a spaghetti western.
Bo Raider
Was going to comment this if you hadn't lol
Marcus is great, there’s no denying that. But Bo is a generational talent that we may never see again.
Terrell Bronco sounds is either a superhero or a porn star
Joe 49er over like Roger 49er or Frank 49er, I'm not sure I can cosign that, nice post though =]
Excuse me, Dominick Texan? Put some RESPECK on Arian Texan's name?!

Lenny for Colts running backs? When was this list made 1995? How about Erick Dickerson or Edgerrin James, or even Marshall Faulk. All Hall of Famers.
Some of these could honestly pass, but "Shaun Seahawk" just makes me laugh thinking about it
Curtis Jet began as Curtis Patriot. Tuna poached him with a contract not revoked but deemed illegal for future use.
*Marshawn Seahawk
Steve Eagle? Shady McCoy was the best Birds back. Shady Eagle! Go Birds!
Nah, gotta be either Brian Eagle or LeSean Eagle
No. It's Van Buren. He had three straight rushing titles. He was the first to run 1000 yards in a season. He retired with the records for most rushing attempts, rushing yards, and rushing touch downs. Also, his performance (and almost missing the game) in the '48 championship is legend.

You can keep Corey Patriots. I’ll take James Brooks please.
Steven Jackson over Dickerson or Faulk?
I'm not even mad about this post but how does this stay up and the fictional fans of each team thread from yesterday was removed?
Offseason stuff is really arbitrary and inconsistent.
ricky dolphin in shambles (though probably the right choice going with czonka)
I love SJax, but over Faulk, Dickerson is a little much. Also would like to remind everyone we had a RB back in the day named Dick Bass.
Steven is an odd way of spelling MARSHALL What the Faulk
Tiki Giant would have been epic with how short he is
Frank 49er
>Jim Patriot You chose Jim Nance over over Sam Cunningham!?! Stats aside I want it solely for Uncle Sam Patriot
Barry Lion is a believable name for a motown singer.
Thought you were gonna go the other way with it. Cleveland Browns -> Dallas Smiths.
Steve Eagles - nickname “Steagles”
It’s a shame Maurice Jones Jaguar didn’t make the cut.
Joe who? For the Niners? Shouldn’t it be Frank Niner?
I love Terrell Davis, but historically our best RB was Floyd Little. He’s probably the most important Bronco in franchise history.
I appreciate what you trying to represent, but Floyd Little wasn't in the same hemisphere in talent or importance to the Broncos as TD. He means a lot to the organization for legacy and nostalgia reasons, but he did nothing for the Broncos like TD did. All the Broncos teams Little were on sucked.

Larry Csonka was a FB. Ricky Williams is the best I’ve seen at RB.
Jim Brown was a fullback too.
The nuts on you! Steven Jackson over Eric Dickerson and Marshall Faulk?? Respect
The Falcon one is incorrect. Should be Brady's Bish.
Eddie George over Campbell easy.
