Who was the better running back?

Al Bundy


Fight me.

 

[Peter Gozintite]

I wish I was old enough to remember watching him. He's the standard in my mind still.

But still, fuck the Bears.

I get it. Fuck you too buddy. Fuck you too.

 

[Kburjr]

Jim Brown.
Gale Sayers.
Sweetness.
Sanders.

Jim Brown.
Gale Sayers.
Sweetness.
Sanders.

I'm not old enough to have seen Sayers, but my father-in-law always said he was the best back he had ever seen.

Marcus and it isn't even close

Agreed. About the same yardage, but Allen has 46 more career TDs. Dude just had a knack for getting in the end zone.

And if he hadn’t gotten into Al Davis’ doghouse during the prime of his career, there’s no telling what Allen’s numbers would have looked like.

Definitely and was a great blocker and receiver out of the backfield. Dorsett didn't do any of that

Plus anyone who survived a friendship with OJ deserves HOF status

 

[Bring Back The Oilers]

I was a big Dorsett fan when I was a kid but yeah.

Marcus Allen was better.

They are both Hall of Famers so it's not an insult to say one is better than the other.
