Imagine if Barry played the same amount of seasons as Emmitt. Very disappointing. If you knew Barry, you know he did the right thing.

@TimTimGorilla310 Yea man I luv both of them but Barry was a smalltown blue-collar guy somethin like a Larry Bird type, he jus went 2 work everyday and did his job. He literally carried that sorry franchise on his back....lol

Based on a survey of 354 NFL players in 2004.

Who Is the Greatest Player You Ever Saw?

John Elway 7%

Joe Montana 8%

Walter Payton 20%

Barry Sanders received the most votes at 30%

And this is football players of All time.

Emmitt Smith is nowhere to be seen.

@iCOULDNThinkOFsHIT What do you mean"got past"?

[iCOULDNThinkOFsHIT]

@TimTimGorilla310 if u notice how many players emmit got past & barry gott pasted i think u can say emmit had the harder task brooo

It should also be noted that Dallas did not take Emmitt out of the game in short yardage and goal line situations. You can't say the same thing about Barry...

therefore hands down

Emmitt > Barry

[racowmav]

The one area that the lions fell short in was being consistent at the QB position. Dave Kreig came in one year and pretty much played lights out and salvaged a season. Mitchel had one horrible year , one great year and two average years. The rest of the time the offense was stuck with Pete , Kramer, Gagliano and sometimes ware..

Sure Sanders had some incredible runs. But so did Emmiit. Emmitt was by far the better blocker , better out of the backfield and equally as gifted a runner.

The greatest lie ever told , sold , purchased and believed is that barry was a one man show in Detriot . Kevin Glover ( PB X 3) and Lomas Brown (PB X 7), Herman Moore (PB X 4), Mel Grey PB kick returner ,Brett Perriman had several pro bowl caliber years, Other notable players were Robert Clarke, Richard Johnson , Johnnie Morton who had 4 1k seasons with the lions, Fralic although he only played there one season was no slouch either. Those teams had some very good players.

@ianmason2003 Your absolutely right. Barry and Walter were known to play almost every game. Walter Payton only missed one game in his 13 seasons and I meant "toughness" as in the willingness and durability to play as long as Emmitt did. Barry was very tough but he left in his prime because he wasnt having fun anymore. I think Emmitt wasnt having fun either but he just wanted to break Walter's record so damn bad. That's why it took him so damn long. Barry only needed one more season.
