Bo had the highest yard per carry of all time. Brown and Sanders are right behind him..

I'm not taking anything away from BO, because once he got to the second level he steamrolled linebackers and then outran secondaries.........definitely a physical freak. But Barry is the best "running back" of all time. He ran behind the shittiest line...........the guy had to run 40 yards horizontally before he could get to the second level. Basically, he made his own runs. If he had a line which could consistently get him past the Dline..........he would have run up records that wouldn't be surpassed by anyone. LT is a great runner, but he's got a pretty sick line in front of him. I've never seen someone with the agility of Sanders...........never. Bo would run you over..........but Barry would leave you with broken ankles clutching at air.
