A TRIBUTE TO EMMITT SMITH (Highlights)

A tribute to one of the greatest running backs in the history of the NFL, and the all time NFL leading rusher, Emmitt Smith.

SHORT BIO-
Emmitt James Smith III (born May 15, 1969 in Pensacola, Florida) is a former American football player. He played for the Dallas Cowboys and Arizona Cardinals and is the NFL's all-time rushing leader, a record formerly held by his childhood hero, Walter Payton. He is the only running back to ever win a Super Bowl championship, the NFL Most Valuable Player award, the NFL rushing crown, and the Super Bowl Most Valuable Player award all in the same season (1993). He is also one of four running backs to lead the NFL in rushing three or more consecutive seasons, joining Steve Van Buren, Jim Brown, and Earl Campbell.

While playing for the Cowboys, Smith, Troy Aikman, and Michael Irvin were the "Triplets" who led their team to three Super Bowl championships during the 1990s.

[942288]

some will say he was only good cause his line .......... his line didnt run for him when he seperated his shoulder now did they his line didnt fight for all those extra yards now did they his line didnt break tackles for him ..........his line didnt block for him when he was in the defensive backfield so ya his line was a great help but they coudnt do alot of thing so shove it anybody who says his line did all the work 

[942288]
