Georgia Frontieri wouldn't give Eric what he was do and the Rams suffered because of her. The Superbowl between the Rams and the Steelers would have had a different tone had E.D. remained a Ram.
fuck the indy colts. the real colts are the Baltimore ravens, they at least give respect to the former greats of the baltimore colts. You won't ever see a raven wear the number 88 like that disrespectful doucher Marvin Harrison
yeh but it was all in the legs he wore huge shoulder pads to make his upper body look massive when in fact it was small trust me Erick Dickerson didnt have a big upper body it was all in the legs
you said. i remember him and craig james as the pony express at SMU. Craig James has a story about how they were the top 2 high school RB and when Eric saw Craig at SMU he said "you're a white guy?" pretty funny.
someone compared LT to Eric Dickerson. LOL Jim Brown in the man but we forget about OJ. OJ was the coldest running back ever. He crazyness off the field mad us forget about how great he was.
Hello!!!! his best years were with the Los Angeles Rams, not the Colts... but can someone tell me the name of this song? I know it's from the 1970's, most likely an NFL film song...
I met ED at a Rams game a few years ago. He was on the sidelines working for ABC at the time I believe. I was wearing an old school blue and yellow jersey and he said "hey dude, that's old school like I wore" then he shook my hand and we talked about the game. It was a brief conversation, but I have to admit, I was a little star stuck since I grew up watching him. By the way, I have big hands, and when he shook my hand it was like twice as big! Dang.
If Dickerson didn't hold out all the time because of contract issues, he would have rushed for 20,000. He was that GREAT. The Rams couldn't pass for shit when he played and still rushed for 2105 yards in 1984. AMAZING.Top 5 back all time.
the best ever PERIOD... HOW BIG WERE DLINEMAN IN BROWNS DAY? AS BIG AS FULLBACKS ARE NOW.HE WAS ALL THE RAMS HAD AND TEAMS STILL COULD NOT STOP HIM.THE RAMS NEVER HAD A DECENT QB UNTIL HE LEFT. TAKE YOUR PICK FERRAGAMO,KEMP, brock,DILS,EVERETT.ED NEVER GETS THE INK HE DESERVES.period
ED is traded in one of THE all time boneheaded trades in professional sports courtesy of John Robinson, coach of the Rams @ that time. Who would you rather have at running back - ED or the dreaded Wendell Tyler?
I remember Dickerson playing for the Rams..the guy came in the league tearing it up.. he was on pace to shatter all rb records.... untilhe got traded...and showing still pics dont do his running style justice
All I have to say is that Jim Brown rushed for 1848 yards in a 12 game Season... and averaged 100 yards per game for nine years... Argument over...12 GAMES NOT 16
no one was comparing dickerson to jim brown and no one was arguing, what are you talking about? Im a football fan from inception to present and i study the game and yes brown was the prototype, respect...but im talking about dickerson when he came into the league. so stop jumping to conclussion and assuming my statements meaning.
against defenses that would like high school teams compared to today's defenses. im not saying he wasnt good but i dont think u can compare the two cuz of the time gap
r u serious. the time gap even stresses the point more because the hits that he took were much more brutal than today, facemasks, clotheslines and all. He also averaged over 5 yards per carry...for his career.
r u serious. the brutal hits stress the point more because it shows how undisciplined and unorganized the defenses were. Yes they may have tried to hit harder, but that actually makes it easier to run. The harder u hit, the more u commit. Defenses back then were often silly looking, and simply dont compare to defenses now.
i understand where ur comin from, i play defense, but we do agree brown was more talented. No matter what Eric Dickerson is one of the greatest of all time, along with MArshall Faulk, Barry Sanders, Marcus Allen, Emmitt Smith, Walter Payton, Earl Campbell, and several others.
what was messed up is that the rams ran the single back system - Everyone knew Eric was getting the ball but couldnt do anything about it My Fav along with Barry
I am a true Eric the Great fan. The colts are cool. Like imacoltsfan says,if you don't like the format don't watch. The slideshow is cool and what makes it even more dramatic is the (NFL FILMS) music score. Keep doing your thing.
Eric could have and should have been the all time rushing leader. It is sad that his contract dispute led to him being traded from the run, run, run Rams. With a bit more hunger and devotion, he would have been regarded as the best ever. To watch Eric run was absolute poetry. So graceful and smooth yet with such power and speed. 6'3 220. He was the total package.
Rushed for 1808 his ROOKIE season and then a ridiculous 2105 his second. Both NFL records. Greatest two year stretch for any RB (Campbell comes second). Had on and off seasons after that, but Dickerson was probably the most graceful RB ever.
his first two seasons in the league were amazing. in his rookie season he broke the record(and stills holds) for most rushing yards by a rookie and was the league's rushing leader. then next season, he broke the all time record for most rushing yards in a single season, 2,150. ever since then, he has gone downhill and had average seasons. he did have good seasons now and then however. nonetheless, he was a great running back.
now if you started reading this dont stop its really scary!ok send this to five other videos in 143 minutes. when you are done press F6 and your crushes name will appear on the screen in big letters this is weird because it does work. If you break this chance you wont have a crush in the next five years
He could have been the GREATEST ever if Georgia F... would of just "shown him the money," Robinson built the team around, still he does not get credit due him.
